The bill will ultimately pass the House. Pelosi will not allow a vote to take place until she has her votes, and the instant she does, the vote will take place.

It's pretty much a matter of who's a yes and who's a no. But Pelosi will not allow the bill to die on her side of the chamber.

Well, this just royally messes up my weekend. Or something.

Try this dude. He can find anyone.

No. The vote won't happen until next week because they have to vote on all of these farking amendments.

Choke on it, wishfulthinkingmitter.

Or not at all.

However, if Republicans use procedural tactics to push the vote back, or to try and poison the bill, Hoyer wants them to be on notice that they could get called back for a vote on Sunday afternoon, Monday, or even Tuesday--the day before Veterans Day.

"Clearly, things happen, and delaying tactics can be employed...all I've done is make sure everybody understands that we're going to complete this effort," Hoyer said.

It's amusing that Subby's reduced to trying to concern troll the inevitable passage because it might happen in 3 or 4 days instead of tomorrow.

And I'm sure those don't have anything to do with a delay. Bachmann's are, of course, particularly amusing.

Get it together, my sweet libtards.

I can't believe farking Michele Bachman is going to get her farking way.

Why this headline is wrong and misleading. (new, socialist window)

Also, I'll offer the same bet someone challenged me to in the last HCR thread (and then backed down when I actually wanted to):

One month of TF on HR 3962 not passing in the next seven days.

You want to talk shiat about the bill failing? Back it up. I will.

That Putrid Puddle of Puss Pelosi Pails!!!

I think we can all--regardless of political affiliation--get behind proposed amendment #138.

Wrong. The sticking points are only two. Abortion funding, in or out. Illegal immigrants, in or out. You leave either in, you lose a certain amount of votes. You leave either out, you lose a certain amount of votes. The trick is how to get to 218 votes.

/ya can't get there from here.

Should not have had to been an amendment. That should have been in the first draft of every bill that included the Public Option. If it's not good enough for Congress, it's not good enough for the people.

I could.

Why? The bill doesn't mandate that anybody be forced onto the public option, only that they have the choice. That same choice is given to members of Congress as it is to anyone else.

Because they are more concerned about getting reelected than anything else?

Seriously, would you ever even put your d*ck anywhere near that?? WTF? Yuck, gag, puke

FTA The apparent problem: Democrats have yet to resolve intraparty disputes over abortion funding and illegal immigrants' access to health care.

So the whole 'You lie' drama was TRUE! Ohhhh....and everyone talked about how rude he was....just like Oliver Twist asking for another bowl of mush.
