UnF***ingbelievable: Harry Reid Delays HCR Vote FOR THE GOP!! Updated at 6:41 PM

I am so pissed right now...

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said today that the Senate
would not attempt to pass sweeping health care reform until after returning from the August recess.

****

Reid said the Senate would try to complete a package in the fall.

****

Reid said Republicans, who have shown intense resistance to President Obama’s push for health care reform, had asked for more time to work
out a package.

"We will do what we can to make sure their concerns are not buried," Reid said.


...But I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

All I can say is that he better be right that Senate Finance is going to be done with their markup.

If they aren't, I think Chuck Schumer should be Majority Leader. End of story.

2. Harry Reid is the worst limp noodle in the history of the Democratic Party.

He is such a useless POS.

My...how the mighty have fallen. :D

You only have to read 16 pages to say "Hell no!".

You only have to read 16 pages to say "Hell no!".

Actually, BadCat, not to be a dick, but I'm going to have to disagree with you based on something I read here.

"...Michelle Bachmann warns that "on the 16th page, it says whatever health care you have now, it’s going to be gone within five years."
...Sigh. Not really. Shadowfax does the lord's work and explains what's actually going on here. The short version is that your insurance doesn't become illegal. It just has to offer itself through the Exchange and follow the new rules, like not jacking up your prices because you had strep throat last year. As for the 93 percent of us who don't purchase coverage on the non-group market? Our insurers are unchanged. Scary, huh?"

There are plenty of reasons to hate this bill, starting with the government, and Obama, especially, wanting it, but we have to ensure that we're correct when we argue our case..

It does say that the government will restrict the rates, so page 16 does say that the government will be controlling even private insurance, and this is just illegal as hell!!! Enough government regulation, already!!

[BadCat]

This doesn't sound good...from page 16..

"Except as provided in this paragraph, the individual health insurance issuer offering such coverage does not enroll any individual in such coverage if the first effective date of coverage is on or after the first day" of the year the legislation becomes law.

This doesn't sound good...from page 16..

I agree, and maybe you're right... The wording is do damned convoluted and confusing that they could pull just about anything on us, and we'd never know until it's too late-that's the Obama M.O.

So much for the pathological liar's promise of transparency and leaving bills un-voted on for 7 days before taking them to the floor of the Senate in order that people have a chance to read it... I'm hoping the delay of the vote is a direct result of the rage the American citizens expressed after the Stimulus was rammed though with no members of Congress having the chance to read it...
