Well, at least you can give them credit for sitting for 7 1/2 hours in what seemed to be terrible hard backed chairs. Too bad they didn't do this last August right before the Tea Party stuff maybe the people would be behind this posturing.
The top two Democrats on Capitol Hill said they would press forward on health overhaul legislation with or without bipartisan support, which would mean using a legislative process known as reconciliation. "We need to have the courage to get this job done, and we will," Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California said after the meeting. She said she was hopeful that Republicans and Democrats would work together, but added she was "not overly optimistic."
At least they put in the leg-work required to sell this Kabuki Theater to the American People. Now the Dems are simply going to cram it right down our throats. I guess they made the calculation the health care takeover is worth losing their jobs over. Oh well the new GOP controlled Congress will just wait 2 years before they overturn whatever the Dems pass.
