The Dems must fight during the recess to show an electorate that elected these clowns that Obamacare is the best thing since sliced bread. Fool me once……..

Rather than beat a dead horse here, maybe a better way to attack the Tax and spend and the Obamacare bills would be the following:

Salt- I have no idea. Except I doubt most earmarks are 1000 pages plus long and get marked up in committee.

I suppose that’s the point. They’ll just put the funding for it in the budget and the 1000 pages of details becomes an execution matter and not a legislative one.

We can only hope that this issue is big enough that such procedural smokescreens would cause an uproar.

Regarding “How is a reconciliation item different than an earmark?”
A “reconciliation bill” eliminates most debate and prohibits filibustering. It is an attempt to move a bill through congress faster.

To further my distaste for this obamacare bill:
Page 30: A government committee will decide what treatments and benefits you get (and, unlike an insurer, there will be no appeals process)
Page 203: “The tax imposed under this section shall not be treated as tax.” Yes, it really says that.•
Page 239: Bill will reduce physician services for Medicaid. Seniors and the poor most affected.”
Page 425: Goverment provides approved list of end-of-life resources, guiding you in death.
Much more like this. If this does not make you sick,scared and down right disgusted, then nothiing will.

Obama told libtard bloggers in a conference call (Hugh Hewitt had the tape) that if he didn’t have 60 Senate votes to invoke cloture, he’d insist Senate leadership pass Marxist Medicine as a ‘reconciliation item’.

A reconciliation item is something generally approved in the budget, but not specifically authorized, and can’t be filibustered.

Marxist Medicine may not have been generally approved in the FY 2010 budget, but the Senate parliamentarian is of the majority party, aka, a Demonrat, and his rulings are advisory only, the presiding officer of the Senate can choose to ignore his rulings.

So Marxist Medicine really all comes down to Dingy Harry Reid

This is in the bill to back up my previous statement about illegals.

Page 50: All non-US citizens, illegal or not, will be provided with free healthcare services.

• Page 65: Taxpayers will subsidize all union retiree and community organizer health plans (read: SEIU, UAW and ACORN)

Doesn’t everyone realize that the Dems don’t care how they get things passed as long as it helps illegals. They are counting on doing all they can to get the illegals taken care of one way or the other and thereby ensuring that their votes will keep the dems in office forever. If they can do that then the Reps will never again regain control. The dems like dependent voters.
