Update: 2:43am Senate adjourns, parliamentarian ruling will send Wreckonciliation bill back to the House

Update 2:43am Eastern After tabling more GOP amendments, a pale, hoarse Harry Reid calls for adjournment. Befuddled Franken announces: “I guess we’re adjourned.”

Meantime, wire services are reporting that a Senate parliamentarian ruling agreeing with GOP points of order will send the Wreckonciliation bill back to the House.

Like I said: It ain’t over ’til it’s over…and it’s only just begun.

The hits just keep on coming.

I watched the final “motion”. What part of this horrid bill is subject to reconciliation?

I love this exchange from the article:

Update 2:43am Eastern After tabling more GOP amendments, a pale, hoarse Harry Reid calls for adjournment. Befuddled Franken announces: “I guess we’re adjourned.” Official adjournment gaveled at 2:56am Eastern.

Andy Levy tweets in reply to my report on Reid’s grim appearance: “‘And I looked, and behold a pale hoarse Harry Reid.’ (Revelation 6:8)”

…And Hell followed with him.
