No, the Senate isn't going to kill the bill. They are also not going to pass the reconcilliation language from the House. They are going to get their original bill over to Obama untouched and have him sign it.

No honor among thieves, don't cha know?

Take a look at Senate Budget Committee Ranking Member Judd Gregg’s statement tonight.

“Immediately after receiving the final reconciliation bill language, Senate Republican staff was ready and willing to meet with Senate Democratic staff and the Senate Parliamentarian to discuss the fact that the House reconciliation bill may be brought down by the 310(g) point of order in the Senate. Senate Democrats are mysteriously unavailable until after the House votes on the health care bill tonight. The Senate Democrats appear to be pushing off this meeting so that House Democrats will remain in the dark about what is likely to happen to the reconciliation bill on which many have staked their careers in Congress. House Democrats should be alarmed by this latest development, since the survival of the reconciliation bill is clearly at risk in the Senate.”

Thank God for all the Patriots who love the Constitution

I certainly fear that our nation is being overrun tonight with no shots fired! If the crooks can pull this off then they can do anything they want to....there is nothing we can do. Watch now for the immigration bill...it will also play out just like the terrible health care bill...but they will pass that too. Since they do not serve the people, we have no voice. I do not believe the Nov. election will change anything. They have the power now to see that the results are just as they want them.....God Bless the America that used to be.

Well, a nice blamefest among Democrats would be a small consolation.

So why isn’t someone on our side pressing this point in the House right about NOW?!?!?!?
