Shouldn’t Gregg be voting this time around, against the bill? He recused himself before, but he is no longer a member of the Obama administration.

A simple majority is all that is required, no? What did I miss in civics class?

60 votes are required since it involves deficit spending after the budget has been approved.

Would the White House have sent a private plane to fetch a Republican who was against the bill, so that he or she could make that vote?

“I’m surprised they didn’t drag Teddy Kennedy out of bed and fly him to DC.”

Maybe Teddy can drive Brown to D.C.?

That way we can be sure that neither will make it.

A flying machine, maybe.

Somebody fill me in. I thought they only needed a simple majority on this and 60 votes were only required for cloture.

Here's Sherrod, my socialist, baby-killing, anti-gun, greasy-faced, unkempt, weasel of a Senator.

Doesn’t matter if Gregg votes No. Only the count of Ayes is important.

It’s not OK for car/bank/insurance company/business executives to fly on private planes but it is OK for a Jackboot of Harry the Grey to get q free ride to destroy Liberty. I am sick to my stomach.

Oh yeah, he can’t ride on a regular plane like the rest of us, he has to ride on an uppity plane cause he deserves it.
