This may be my last running post tonight as debate is continuing at this moment, (6:30PT), there may not be a floor vote on HR 3962 until late in the night. Malkin, with a guest host will keep on top of this vote. But is seems that the votes are there, according to Politico. Is that even surprising? What does it say of the progressive/liberal/statist agenda that they resort to tactics like this? And by tactics I mean off-hour voting on a societal-altering HC bill. Why the weekend vote? Why? Why? Why?
It's simple, actually. The agenda is a losing one. Based on the rhetoric from the Democrat side, they know it as so as well. The entire debate/response/argument from that side of the aisle has been the absolute, unapologetic right side of the brain.
That being, emotion over reason, sob-stories, and bleeding-heart nonsense. Be-damned the ramifications of untold trillions of debt as far as the eye can see. Screw-you future generations, we want our statist-goodies right now:
Link for the high-res flow-chart here. Note how this monstrosity has changed since June?
6:40 PT Just like the Cap and Trade broo-hah vote several months ago, Minority Leader John Boehner is now fillibustering. I recommend that you tune in. Why do our guys sound so good on defense?
6:45 I'm watching history here. The House-gavel just came down and Boehner is still speaking.
6:51 PT A corpse of a socialist-HC horndog, Dingellberry of Michigan is speaking. It's his legacy. Woo-hoo.
7:00 PT Voting on the Stupak amendment now.
7:23 PT The Stupak amendment passing by perhaps Yea 240, the same amount that congressman Issa just said on Fox News with Geraldo will pass HR 3962.
7:30 PT GOP HC plan fails in vote, Stupack Yeas by 250 something-ish, coming up on HR 3962 vote.
IRS + Medicare and all of the glory that they represent. Post-Coital:
7:42 PT Vote on Final Passage coming soon.
8:00 PT Voting on Final Passage, expected to pass. Disgusting. Pelosi expected to speak after passage. I'd rather go swimming at midnight in the 55 degree ocean where I live than watch. You?
8:08 PT Passing the 218 threshold vote necessary. See you bastards in 2010. Remember Virginia and New Jersey? Seeing these statist-socialist reps cheer this thing was one of the most disgusting sights a liberty-loving American could behold.
Goodnight and God bless America.

The a$$holes just got their 220 votes with the help of one lone Republican. Find out who that jerk was and hang him out to dry next November..
..along with all of the Democrats who voted for this load of crap.
LCR, I watched it too. I feel sick to my stomach. Shame on the one Republican Louisiana Congressman who voted for this.
I'm thoroughly disgusted that they don't even trust their "wonderful" public option to apply it to themselves.
@ Boncka - Yup, that's the point here, although shocking, we will have a NJ/VA sweep coming up.
@ Lyzar - Yes, we have to redouble our efforts, this thing ain't even close to being done.
LCR - thanks for the live blog. Are your eyes bleeding yet?
@ Cgen - No problem, my wife is gone today so I was able to do this. My eyes are bleeding, blood is shooting out them right now!
As some of you may know, I am a US Navy veteran, therefore fluent in "sailorspeak." But since LCR is a PG rated blog, I will hold back on the aforementioned "sailorspeak" that holds my true thoughts AND feelings at this moment.
Funny that Drudge didn't have this as headlines. I found out from Newsmax. http://www.newsmax.com/headlines/obama_healthcare_vote/2009/11/07/283228.html
This is a quote from chief commie Maobama himself: "is going to define the difference between the Republican and Democratic parties for decades."
You said it creep... you said it! And you have absolutely no idea what your prophetic comment means. Demorats are done! Over! Through!
I'll save the good riddance after we keep this monster from getting past the senate, and have kicked these miscreants out of office once and for all.
Truly a sad day for liberty.
LCR--Thank you very much for all your hard work. It's very much appreciated. It is sad to watch the destruction of an nation in real time.
Would you please double check the link to the high res "Pelosi Plan" chart? I think your bloody eyeballs blurred your vision a second, there. Thank you.
@ William - Thank you for the words here. Although it may be a sad day for liberty, it is surely not the end for us. Keep the spirit up my friend, we will defeat these people.
@ Sonickitty - Oh my, I can't believe I did that! I sent that link to a friend that has a kitty with dander, my kitty is on that formula, (the link) and her fur is perfect. Thanks for pointing out my mistake.
