God forbid that we allow any abortion coverage in the health care bill: While Republicans and some Democrats want to hold up health care reform because of the false premise that abortions would be covered, the Washington State GOP provides its employees health care through a consortium that does just that. Congresswoman Cathy McMorris-Rodgers blasted […]
I can’t help but laugh every time I hear some Republican say “passing this bill [health care reform] will cost the Democrats in November”. I keep wondering to myself if Coach K is calling up John Calipari and saying “if we meet in final four and you run a zone defense, it will cost you […]
Writing in an op-ed in today’s Mooney Times, Jeffery Kuhner floats the idea of impeaching President Obama if health care reform passes. His argument is the same old strawman we have been hearing all week – the “deem and pass” of the House of Representative: Many Democrats could claim they opposed the Senate bill while […]
Here is the reason we shouldn’t let health care reform become law: Leading a revolt against President Barack Obama’s healthcare legislation over abortion has been a “living hell” for Rep.

Kucinich is holding his press conference right now and said he will vote for health care reform, but pledges to continue to fight on towards true reform. You go boy!
Dennis Kucinich is holding a press conference tomorrow morning to announce his vote on the health care reform bill. Just now on MSNBC, Howard Fineman just reported that his sources are telling him that Kucinich will announce he is supporting the bill now. If this is the case, then this is very big news and […]
So here we are, the final week for the health care reform push. It’s going to be interesting to see what happens today. I got a feeling the signals will be mixed all the way up to the final vote this weekend. From one minute to the next we will hear “they have the votes”, […]
The biggest reason I have been very pessimistic about the possibility of us seeing health care reform this year is because of the problems in the Senate. I know a lot of people have maintained that we already have a bill that passed the Senate, but we do have to remember that our Congress is […]
