Is there any hope for health care reform now? The senate has apparently quit, and the house

[AlinPA]

is laying low. If they wait until next year, we won't have a chance to pass anything.

1. How do you figure that?! Senators signing Bennett's letter to

Reid, requesting reconciliation of the HCR bill and you equate that to, "the senate has apparently quit?" Wow! Just wow!

6. How many have signed? Not nearly enough.

That was just a little feel good gesture to keep the "far left" on board.

[Fire1]

8. That's how you get things done. By being "on board." By

applying pressure to our senators. From 0 to 4 to 14 in 2 days is the kind of momentum it takes to get reconciliation. That won't be done if we stay silent.

[AlinPA]

10. 21 out of 59? A joke.

2. Hey, AlinPA, where ya been? It's all over DU.......PO is alive and well!!!

3. If Obama refuses to allow PO will you still support hcr?

5. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times, I'm hopeless.

Fool me four or more times, I'm a naive progressive masochist.

4. qUIT, HELL. tHEY GOT ALL THE BAKSHEESH from the HC companies

and stopped threatening them.

7. I think the House wants the Senate to pass a reconciliation bill first, then

they can pass the Senate version of the bill that already exists.

[AlinPA]

9. Our senate will never pass a reconciliation bill. With Harry Reid as "leader"?- no way.
