the house healthcare revision

sweep sweep ;-) now its harrys turn. yes we can!

glad to at least see baby murdering won't be covered by the feds, except in cases of rape, incest, and danger to the mother. Should have just been danger to the mother, but it's par for the course of the Democratic Baby Murdering Party.

I would hardly call 220 to 215 a sweep.

so cincy the status quo was private-only insurance, many of which do pay for abortions and viagra but will not pay for birth control. i am ok with how this abortion provision will be.

scoob..i suspect when it came down to the wire and they were all sure they had enough votes, there was a nod to those who needed to just say no in hopes they will be reelected. regardless..a win is huge right now, even if it wasnt by a big gap. i would also bet the insurance companies have been ironing out how to move forward successfully with all the game changes, i think they were pretty sure these changes would be voted in. they arent stoopid. yes we can!!

I actually watched the count, about 20 dems voted no with in the first 5 min of the 15 min vote and slightly over 30 by the 10 min time frame. It didn't hit 218 until about 2 minutes left with just 3 dems left to vote.
