Speaker Pelosi. I have time for one more question.
Q: Can you give us an update on the health care … [inaudible] … how close were …
Speaker Pelosi. “...And that is what our purpose is, is to improve quality, lower cost, expand coverage, and retain choice for those who like what they have. And in doing so, as the President has said: “Health care reform is entitlement reform and entitlement reform is essential to lowering the deficit.”

...Angie Bastian said the company’s human resources manager is having trouble finding detailed information about how the reform, which will mostly take affect in 2014, will impact their business.
“We’re looking for information,” she said. “... It would be helpful to have that so we can plan.”
Walz concurred, saying federal agencies need to finalize the rules surrounding the reform bill so that businesses of all sizes will know what will be expected of them and what sorts of tax credits they will receive. Ultimately, he said most small businesses will like what they see.
“The more people find out what’s in there, the happier they are,” he said.
Problem 1:
No one gets up & directly rebutts the shut down crap.
When will they hit back?
Problem 2.
Not many dynamic speakers on our side of the line

“A one-year delay in the implementation of the 2010 health care law and repeal of a medical device tax appeared to be the top contenders under consideration ... Other suggestions of bargaining chips include a stop to the health care subsidies for lawmakers and staff who are expected to get their insurance from Obamacare exchanges.... “opposition to the medical device tax is stronger than it’s ever been.” But Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., indicated that repeal of the tax is “not enough” to get people to vote for the CR.”
Any bets on how many DemRats vote with the Repusses on this one?
And will any Repusses crossover to he dark side?
