By no means the best they could have done if the Republicans had cooperated instead of publicly being the real jackasses, but after over 100 years of trying, to get ANYTHING accomplished, from Teddy Roosevelt at least, it is a start.
I find it hard to believe that, after this last year, anyone, even a conservative, could picture the DEMS as being organized and in lock step.
The bill may be a mess, it may hurt then in November, but it is (especially after 8 years of Cheney/Bush) good to see someone do the right thing because it is the right thing.
10 - 15 years from now it will be like civil rights and medicare, something that helped the country, and that the GOP will be saying that they were alway in favor of.

The gops biggest threat? elections? How about doing things for AMERICANS, not corporations. How about doing what is right, not what is safe.

CHURCH - You say that like it was a bad thing.
Actually, to use a phrase I am happy to say I haven’t heard for years, “Never Going To Happen G.I.!”

We’ll see what happens when people see what is REALLY in this bill, and not just what FoxNews says is in the bill.

The right has been saying “We’re going communist” for the last fifty years… Nobody sane believes it anymore.
