I'm going with 220-215.....that's a whole lot of dem's going against this bill - but there will be some taxpayer money bribing them to get this
baby over the top.

For it is I, Nostradamus, that posted thus.
Sorry, that is my best attempt Whirly-speak.
The vote couldn't come off any other way....within a vote or two, max. Pelosi wouldn't expose any more of her cubs to voter wrath than absolutely necessary. No doubt some money deals were made....and I'm ok with that. You'll note one repub went for the bill, no doubt in a moderate/democrat district. The senate version will be drastically watered down or dem's will have to use reconciliation. I'm actually dying to see reconciliation, I want to see if there will be any reaction from voters and/or protestors in 2010. A special congrats to all my uber emotional leftist pen pals at Buckyville....many years of hard work, whining and fighting for a cause has paid off. Drink a beer and celebrate the win....when you go outside to pick the paper up in the morning to see that headline "healthcare reform passes house", I'm going to run you over with my car
Please pass the ammo! |

Yet, I took algebra 5 times in college I used that class towards my yearly credit requirements put up by the NCAA -
when you flunk the course once, the follow on F's can't hurt your overall GPA. In other words, I'd take two night classes, a throwaway class and
an algebra course that I kept failing so I could watch film with coach and clown around in general. I rarely had to go to any classes to stay
eligible....never went to Algebra - just chalked up the meaningless F and worked on a way to skip the night classes. I look back and can't really think
of any time I ever went to class and took notes or studied - 50% would have been my max attendance in any course.
