"Howard Dean's Op-Ed Entered Into Senate Record - By GOP"
And here we go....

Howard Dean's Op-Ed Entered Into Senate Record - By GOP

Sen. Mike Enzi (R-WY) used his floor speech tonight to say the Democrats crafted their bill behind closed doors, but didn't mention he was behind those doors early in the process.

Enzi, one of the gang of five that began hammering out a health care compromise over the summer, said in August he didn't like the Democrats' ideas.

Tonight, Enzi entered in former DNC Chairman Howard Dean's recent op-ed criticizing the health care bill into the official Senate record.

5. Stupid fucking disingenuous republicons.
They need to keep up or stfu.

<snip>

"This morning, Howard Dean walked back from earlier statements encouraging Democrats to “kill” the Senate health care bill. On Thursday, Dean wrote that “this bill would do more harm than good to the future of America,” but during his appearance on Meet The Press, Dean argued that yesterday’s manager’s amendment significantly improved the legislation. “I would let this thing go to conference committee and let’s see if we can fix it some more,” Dean said:"

8. I'm surprised Enzi read the bill inasmuch as to date it was my assumption
that he could not read.

9. Seeing as how the current Democrats meekly sold you all down the river
that was a wise move.

As all of you go team go screw effective policy types will find out yet again- the hard way.
