1. I don't like this bill but it was so nice to see the Rs have their asses handed to them.

[aquart]

5. Right. What part of the bill didn't they write?

[ixion]

6. yeah, that is so worth the ass kicking the dems are going to take in 2010 and 2012

largely because of this piece of crap bill. Enjoy your schadenfreude.

8. When the holidays are over and Americans start paying attention and

discover they're the victims of legalized extortion by the health care organized crime families, things are going to get ugly. The Repukes' response will be "Vote for us in 2010 and 2012 and we'll undo this POS." The Dems could not have fucked up more spectacularly.

When I see threads on this site in support of this corporate sell-out, I just shake my head. How can anyone believe this is going to do anything other than help repukes at election time?

7. They got every compromise they ever wanted..

and on top of it, they get to look like heroes for voting against it.

2. Next vote is Tuesday 7 am. That's the next step.

[LooseWilly]

3. Ahh, good.... that gives me time enough to drink enough to face the next step.

If I'm gonna be forced to buy health insurance by law... I damned sure mean to get my money's worth...

[Jamastiene]

9. Ain't that the truth?

I need to be more than drunk to take this and pretend it's even halfway acceptable.

[Quantess]

11. What is it with GD-P? People there are cheering.
