These blatant liars are despicable. For Reid and Landrieu to pretend that the GOP is responsible for these middle-of-the-night votes healthcare is repulsive. Hopefully they will be ousted in 2010.

They are both wrong as to the blame.

As it is with most things, “It’s Bush’s fault”...

Ok, so where is Coburn to refute this? He just going to let it stand?

Actually the vote should have been scheduled for 3:00 am, generally considered to be the ‘witching’ hour, when all the spooks, creepy-crawlies, evil spirits and demons start prowling around.

Oh wait, the ‘Rats and RINOs do that 24 hours a day anyway.

Never mind.

The DemocRAT party (not going to use the word Democratic, it doesn’t fit this bunch of fascists) has become the party of absolute evil, so I’d expect nothing less. If their lips are moving...well, you know the rest.

We are the laughingstock of the world...People the world over look at the fools we ourselves elect to run our country and they have to laugh...

We elect the weakest, dumbest, most self-centered among us, then we have the audacity to complain....

You’re full of it. You don’t know Tom Coburn, and all he has done to thwart this bill. Sheesh.

"We don't have to vote in the middle of the night, but [Republican Sen. Tom Coburn] is the one making us do it -- not Harry Reid, not the Democrats. It is a Republican obstructionist that is making us vote in the middle of the night."

More democrat lies. Republicans don't have enough votes to stop anything. I'm so sick of the party of corruption being in power (not that the republicans were much better).

Gregg: Welcome to a New America [Robert Costa]

American government changed last night. “We are now functioning under a parliamentary form of government,” says Sen. Judd Gregg (R., N.H.) in a conversation with NRO. “An ideological supermajority in Congress, along with a government run by community organizers, has taken over.”

“They’ve taken over the student-loan program, they’ve taken over the automobile system, and now they’re taking over the health-care system. There is no limit to their belief that people should be controlled by smart bureaucrats in Washington,” says Gregg. “They’re putting our country on a path that will reduce the quality of life for the next generation, undermine our nation’s wonderful exceptionalism, and Europeanize our economy to curb its growth.”

Harry Reid’s health-care bill “was purchased,” says Gregg. “Our system of checks and balances is gone. We now have a government that lurches with great speed even though our system is founded upon incremental change.” And don’t hope that the House stops the runaway train, he says. “I think the House is ideologically even further to the Left than the Senate. There are many people there who are committed to taking us down the road toward nationalization.”

“In the future, discretionary dollars won’t be able to be spent on college or a new house, but on this massive new burden for Americans,” says Gregg. “Eventually, at some point, the pressures on the private sector will tip the scales so that employers offering private insurance send people over to the health-care exchange. It’s all part of their ultimate goal to get a vast amount of people subsidized by the government.”

This is an “unsustainable course for our nation,” says Gregg. “We can’t sustain the debt we’re adding. Soon we’ll reach banana-republic status.”
