The Drudge site allows user Alt-F4 protocol to clear bugs when it doesn’t load.

Try deleting your Browsing History. You may have a corrupt tag.

Your computer may have the new Obama anti-virus software on it that prevents you from seeing the drudge and any other non-approved news sources.

Then again, your computer may just be afraid of the Pelosi picture.

Every time I tried to use the link to the Washington Examiner to view the article about Chaos in the Rules Committee it crashed my browser (tried 2).

Finally was able to use Lynx text browser and read the article.

Not sure what crashed both Galeon and Mozilla, but something did.

Here is an excerpt:

At the House Rules Committee meeting, Democrats desperate to pass their national health care plan are running into the barrier of basic civics. Here is the problem: The Senate has passed its HCR bill. If the House passes the same bill, it goes on to the president; once he signs it, the bill becomes law. But House Democrats, when they vote for the Senate bill using the “Deem & Pass” dodge, also want to simultaneously pass a package of amendments to the law. Except HCR will not, at that point, be law. It will only become law when the president signs it. Congress can amend the law — it does so all the time — but can it amend something that isn’t law?

Which is where Democrats are tripping up. Passage of their HCR proposal should be very simple: Senate passes it, House passes it, president signs it. But House Democrats are terrified of voting for the unpopular bill, so they hope to pass it by “Deem & Pass,” in which they will vote, not for the bill, but for a rule that both deems the Senate bill to have passed and, in the same vote, passes the package of amendments. So House Democrats will have two fig leaves: 1) they didn’t vote directly for the Senate bill, and 2) they voted to simultaneously amend — to “fix” — the Senate bill.

The problem is the sequence. Can the House vote to amend something that isn’t the law, as the Senate bill will not be law before the president’s signature? The Rules Committee meeting turned into mass confusion.
