Democrats Go Nuclear in 60 Days to Pass ObamaCare


Those pesky Democrats in the senate, at least the ones who haven’t announced their retirement, are choosing to pass ObamaCare by using the Nuclear Option, also known as reconciliation whereby only a simple majority of 51 votes gets the bill passed.

This is a very audacious move by the Dems who insist on passing a healthcare reform plan that will lead to inadequate care at the hands of an administration that loves to spend your money.

The Hill reports:

The move would allow Democrats to essentially go it alone on health reform, especially after losing their filibuter-proof majority in the Senate after Sen. Scott Brown's (R) special election victory in Massachusetts.

Republicans have protested the maneuver as a hyperpartisan tactic to ram through a health bill, and have said that plans to use the reconciliation process make moot a bipartisan summit at the White House this week, where both GOP and Democratic leaders are supposed to present their ideas on healthcare.

Full story

As has been the case for the past year, Democrats don’t want to listen to Republican ideas or anything dealing with free market solutions.

Their true God is government now, government tomorrow, government forever!
