Up or Down Vote on HCR.
Enough allowing the republicans to backdoor a defeat of what the majority of America needs.

Enough of using the promise of a filibuster to squelch the liberal agenda.

Time to call for an up or down vote on HCR.

3. There will be a bill...
... as soon as this crap about filibustering is taken off the table.

Tell Joe to STFU. Like Franken did today.

2. Jesus, that's all we heard from Bush and his media allies for eight years.
Apparently that expression doesn't exist anymore.

6. I want the Ds to to be as ruthless as Rs.
POTUS and the Senate Ds should be saying "up or down vote" everytime they appear in public or in the media.
