Congress: Next week?

I'm glad that President Obama rattled Max Baucus's cage and gave him the wakeup call to get busy and ditch the repugnant ones. After giving the repugnant ones plenty of input it's time to close it down and get the bill out for a vote. Max has to get over the bipartisan nonsense since the repugnant ones have no intention of voting for it after getting so many concessions.

Time to tax the rich and greedy to pay for the health care plan we all need. Time to reinstate the top two tax brackets Raygunz got rid of to give the super rich way too much tax cut welfare for far too long.

Pass Health Care Reform with the Public Option Now!

God help us - Obama Won't

Not to nitpick, but what you suggest is physically impossible. We have to bend over first, and then grab our ankles.

You must be a very fast typist.

How much did George W. Bush do for us?

I am tickled that Baucus is being sensible. We'll finish it when it's finished. I don't necessarily agree with President Obama's time table for the health care bill. I want it done this year but not necessarily before the August recess. I would rather they take another month and get it right than do it fast and sloppy. As for bi-partisan, we can throw a few bones to the blue dogs and let the Republicans have credit for some little things here and there (we can correct that later)so it looks bi-partisan unless they really do have a good idea or two. The track record of the current GOPers on the will of the people is pretty dismal so my expectations of true bi-partisanism is low.

I would be tickled if there was money to pay for it,can't afford all these new taxes coming our way. Pretty soon if you have more than 8,000 square feet in your home you will be required to take in a homeless person...and there will be lots of them.
