House Narrowly Passes Healthcare Bill

[Red_Fern]

The U.S. House of Representatives narrowly passed a massive overhaul of the American health care system Saturday night by a vote of 220 to 215. One Republican, Rep. Joseph Cao of Louisiana, crossed the aisle, while 39 Democrats joined the Republicans in opposing the measure.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called passage of the bill "an historic moment for our nation and for America's families," while Republicans warned that the bill will raise taxes, increase insurance premiums and make cuts to Medicare. An enormous round of applause broke out throughout the House chamber when the crucial 218th vote was cast to ensure the bill's passage.Full Story (http://www.politicsdaily.com/2009/11/07/house-passes-historic-health-care-bill-long-road-ahead-for-ref/)

[Red_Fern]

Yeah no kidding. Pelosi is such a witch.

[Blue387]

Should this be moved to the political forum?

[Red_Fern]

I messed up in my post, my apologies.

If possible, yes.

Its just another Ponzi scheme.

[11 Bravo]

I for one won't pay into this scheme if it rears it's ugly head as tainted law. If enough people stick together on refusing this crap they will have to react to THE PEOPLE.

This is good news. Says the Non US Citizen whom it doesnt affect.....

[Ordie]

Ordie, why are you such a hard leaning socialist?

I am an American.

First and foremost.

If you don't like my view points, then screw you.

[chauncy republicans]

Great news.

We've been waiting for this for a while.
By we I'm assuming you mean the shameless minority who makes legal exceptions for those who stimulate your emotionally driven sense of accomplishment.

Wait till you get in front of one. You won't be smirking then.

Now if we can only stack Crap and Tax on it, buy off a trillion worth of third world greed, get stuck in a never ending land war in Asia, save Social Security and increase US taxes and inflate away debt to fund all this while disenfranchising the dissenters!

Excellent, more fuel for the party(S) economic funeral pyre!

I predict crackling dust, fearsome times ahead. Yippy, soon I can get the Harley and the gang ready for some good barbaric raping and pillaging fun of the emasculated city folk dregs. p-)

Perhaps you could elaborate?

[gaijinsamurai]
