That's why they are going to force a vote on the "healthcare" bill in the Senate, tomorrow.
Senator Coburn was threatening to have the Reading Clerks read the whole bill (all 2,000 pages of it) on the floor of the Senate. This would have taken DAYS, at least. The Senators are trying to take over 1/6 of the world's largest economy, sure, but they have a week off next week, and there are Tee times to make! We have to go HOME people!
The Democans knew they couldn't let the Senators go home and get harangued by the constituents for a week before a cloture vote, and they DAMN sure did not want to sit there and listen to the whole bill read, so they cut a deal with the Republicrats. The Republicrats get a whole DAY for debate. Saturday. At the end of the day, the "debate" (read: arm-twisting) will be voted on, and we'll see who will have spread promises of pork most liberally, as the Senate votes to start debating the worst. bill. EVAR. so they can go home for the holiday week.
Becuase YOU are asleep at the switch. Call them today.
