Gutierrez Confirms He Will Vote For Health Care Bill After Threatening To Vote No

This is great news.

I do hope he got some promises about movement on Comprehensive Immigration Reform this year in exchange for his vote.

Looks like Kucinich was the start of a stampede to the entrances.

I thought this might happen. It made perfect sense for Progressives to tell Pelosi that they would not support even more compromises to the GOP and the Blue Dogs. But now that we have got into the home stretch it is clear that Progressives are getting 90% of what they wanted and 120% of what they might realistically have hoped to achieve.

This is only phase one of what will be a long process. The GOP hated Medicare and fought tooth and nail against it. Then they were the ones who put through the prescription drug coverage in part D. It will be the same here.

I am not that bothered about the lack of a public option. If the health care insurance market is not sufficiently competitive, one can be created.

The next area for concern is likely to be the process for developing and patenting drugs. The patent system has proved effective in some ways, but it is far from perfect.

Alert! Tell Washington that the pro-amnesty rally does not represent you... or most Americans!

This weekend will be a historical turning point in the illegal alien occupation of our country. We as Americans can stand back disinterested and watch, or do the right thing for 15 million US jobless labor force that is climbing to new heights? ITS INCORRIGIBLE that our President-Senate-House would try to pass a suspect CIR (AMNESTY) when Americans are hurting.
