Dems’ Plan B disintegrates: Bill to reverse Hobby Lobby ruling can’t clear filibuster

The Rats political stunt didn't last long.

Collins, Kirk, Murkowski vote with Rats. Sigh

[cripplecreek]

No fan of the RINOs but I suspect they voted yes to force the democrat’s hand at which point Hairy Roid voted NO.

[alloysteel]

Wasn’t Harry Reid able to invoke the “nuclear option”, to blow up the filibuster once and for all, making everything a simple majority?

[Jim Robinson]

Health rights? Abortion is very unhealthy for the baby.

>>>Collins, Kirk, Murkowski vote with Rats. Sigh <<<

Actually, Collinrat, Kirkrat and Murkowskirat voted with the other rats.

Nothing to be surprised at or sigh . . . these are all democrats wearing republican robes, or more correctly - wolves in sheep’s clothing.

AMEN to that.

[SoothingDave]

He only did so for nominations, not for routine business.

[uglybiker]

Well, they didn't say it was a good plan!

That's why it was Plan B!

[jazusamo]

Bump.

[Sgt_Schultze]

It worked perfectly. It will come up again in September after normal schedules return as an election time issue to stoke anger among the Sarah Flucke types and drive the angriest horn dogs to the polls.

Since they are discussing “Women’s Health”, how about this suggestion for preventative medicine. When you lay down cross your legs.

[Pilgrim's Progress]

Harry . . . here is a simple solution, just invoke another nuclear option and make yourself and your party the sole decision making body in America . . . please, please do - and then come November, when WE are the majority we can impeach the whole lot of you including your halfrican boss. We won’t even drag it out!

[jazusamo]

Yep, doesn’t cost a cent and it’s 100% effective.

[christx30]

Well, not 100% effective. There was that one woman 2014 years ago.
But there are exceptions to every rule.

[jazusamo]

So true, and then in modern times there’s that dastardly toilet seat. :-)

[uncitizen]

All the RATS have anymore are stunts. Well lies and stunts.

This law would give the HHS Secretary, Sylvia Mathews Burwell, a political hack, carte blanche to create and enforce whatever requirements she or Obama want to on insurance companies and private employers (including small businesses). The only exception would be for houses of worship, and the existing, limited accommodation for religiously-affiliated nonprofit organizations would remain.

The Religious Freedom Restoration Act, which passed the Senate 97-3 and the House unanimously, would be rendered irrelevant beyond individuals. I do not know how this would impact a privately owned business with a single owner. And who knows what would happen with state level religious freedom laws.

Avalanche of Awesome!

Now there is a big surprise with those 3. NOT!
