House Democrats commit mass suicide. Vote to bypass the Constitutuion

The Hill web site:
Dems defeat GOP effort to force separate vote on Senate health bill
By Michael O'Brien - 03/18/10 02:28 PM ET
Democrats shot down a Republican effort to force an up-or-down vote on the Senate healthcare bill on Thursday afternoon.
In a 222-203 vote, Democrats beat back a GOP resolution offered by Democrat-turned-Republican Rep. Parker Griffith (Ala.) that would have forced lawmakers to vote on the Senate healthcare bill separately from the series of fixes they hope to make to that legislation.

All Republican lawmakers who voted opposed the measure, which had the effect of ending the GOP's effort to force a vote. They were joined by 28 Democrats, who broke with party members on the vote.

222 Democrats supported the measure, though, meaning enough to proceed. Three members of both parties did not vote.

  1. Two Stories, Too Little Press

    . . . Besides, I would add, isn’t this supposed to be a health care bill and not a civil rights bill?

    Joe Hicks, a California advisor to that civil rights commission, concludes his observations by writing, “Some say that life is a game of winners and losers. This might be true, but we shouldn’t allow Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid to pick the people who win or lose just because of skin color or their last name:” http://bit.ly/9yenqa

    Good point, Joe. Another good point is, Why won’t anyone hear anything about it or about Dutch gays allowing a massacre to happen?
