Fox: Senate Dems to use "nuclear option" to pass ObamaCare with "public option" if necessary
Fox News Channel | 9/9/09

Posted on 09/09/2009 6:34:25 AM PDT by pabianice

Per Fox News Channel, Senate Dems ready to use "budget reconciliation" -- 51 votes -- to pass ObamaCare with "public option." Dems now say they will seek no Republican support, but Sen Olymbia Snowe is siding with the Dems anyway. Repubs hiding in closets. Developing. Looking like a done deal.

So much for "no support in Senate for public option."

The only good news here is that we have an excellent chance of retaking the House in 2010 and the Presidency in 2012.

Disgraceful. No regard whatsoever for what the people want.

They can win the battle and lose the war. 2010 will be the fallout.

Yep, they’ll own the thing lock, stock, and barrel. Only thing is, if I’m not mistaken, it doesn’t take effect till 2012, so people won’t notice any difference in their healthcare until after the next election.

The answer is that we’ll be stuck with it for good.

Can someone clarify: Is it true that any bill passed this way has a “sunset” provision? That it must be re-approved later on?

The morons in congress are too stupid to understand what the result is going to be. And I’m not talking about health care...

History in the making here folks. We’re witnessing the final countdown to the full-blown Marxist takeover of our country.

The former United States of America is falling to a Communist revolution, without a single shot being fired. Unbelievable.

If the rats do this, they will lose control of government for the next generation. Political suicide.

Actually, it doesn’t take effect until 2013.

I’ll believe it when I see it, and not before. And I’m hoping I don’t see it.

There is a lot of disinformation being spread around. I’ve been hearing that the Democrats are on the verge of victory for months now.

The next march on Washington may not be as peaceful if they shove this through. I’ve had enough.

The Demonrats are hell-fire determined to take over health care by rook or crook. I’m so mad I could spit nails! For those of you (everybody) who are smarter than I, can a new president or new Conservative majority revisit this and repeal it?
