		<description>No offense, but these leftist clowns have ignored and flaunted the US Constitution at will.  Does anyone really think they care about breaking &quot;Roberts Rules of Order&quot; in the Senate?  

The whole thing is a charade and they will do whatever it takes to pass this monstrosity regardless of how loudly the American people scream at them!  

Parliamentary rules are not going to stop these folks!</description>

		<description>Never let a Crisis go unused...
The GOP should start proposing amendments (written in clear English, not legaleze since they&#039;ll never get adopted).  After the English reading, another GOP senator should ask the amendment be read in Spanish so the Spanish speaking folks understand the amendment, then Swahili, etc, etc.  

 So long as the liberal packed courts have declared there&#039;s no English is the official langauge, seems everyone deserves the debate and amendments be offered in everyone&#039;s language...  

If the Dem&#039;s want to stop it, simple, propose an English Offical Language amendment to health reform...   Squeeze the Dems for all they are worth...  

Then run on these issues (simple health reform and English as Offical Language) in 2010.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Sadly, the Idiot American Electorate is nowhere near intelligent enough to comprehend such truths.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I couldn&#039;t agree more, we keep seeing and hearing how smart the American voters are , how they pick up on all this crap being shoved down our throats. That being the case how did we end with such crooked, self-centered, elitists that control congress not to mention the worse, most un_American president and administration?</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;
But public displeasure with Democrats wasn&#039;t translating directly into warmth for Republicans. Twenty-eight percent of voters expressed positive feelings about the GOP -- a number that has remained constant through the Democrats&#039; decline over the summer and fall. Only 5% said their feelings toward the Republicans were &quot;very positive.&quot;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

For those of you who believe that voting for a 3rd party is a losing strategy, we might see in 2012 whether you will continue to vote for your favorite 3rd party, the GOP. Support of Republicans keeps dropping too. 

It&#039;s great being us!</description>

		<description>The assumption behind the &quot;Erik Erikson Gambit&quot; was that the Dems would let piddling little things like the Senate rules stand in their way.

Erik seems like a nice guy, but a little naive.</description>

		<description>So, you expected Democrats to play by the rules? Ha! All I can say is more power to Senators Coburn and DeMint, and let notice be served that the WHOLE bill will have to be read before its voted on. Unless they&#039;d care to withdraw it.</description>
