Will Conservatives rant and rave when the Democrats use Reconciliation to pass Health Care?

It is bound to happen one way or the other. I would rather it happened using only Democrats since any Republican Health Plan would most likely be watered down and not good for the person nor for the program either. Reconciliation which was used numerous times by Bush including his trillion dollars tax breaks for the rich, could be and might be used to pass Health Care. Do you think that Conservatives will rant and rave. Are Americans now immune to the ranting and raving from the Right after seeing Tea parties for non-existent tax hikes, birthers and others fringe loon groups? Should Democrats just consider the rants and complaints as also from the loons?Will Conservatives rant and rave when the Democrats use Reconciliation to pass Health Care?
You hit it on the head---most people will just see it as yet another crazy rant from the Right. At every turn they are ranting about things from his birth certificate to Michelle Obamas arms and now they want to be taken seriously--Afraid NOT. I for one do not want Republicans hands in this bill either, just look what they did for us already!Will Conservatives rant and rave when the Democrats use Reconciliation to pass Health Care?
What law would they ';change'; to get obama care??





You aren't getting how it works....try reading up.





reconciliation bill - A bill containing changes in law recommended pursuant to reconciliation instructions in a budget resolution.





Reconciliation process - A process established in the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 by which Congress changes existing laws to conform tax and spending levels to the levels set in a budget resolution. Changes recommended by committees pursuant to a reconciliation instruction are incorporated into a reconciliation measure.








Basically you can't you Reconciliation to create a brand new law. You are just not understanding the process.
I would say so, because tonight they seem obsessed with Rush. The intelligence from the right wingnuts is so overwhelming I think they are in love with the guy. Health care or insurance reform will pass even though the right wingnuts know a black man will be a hero and it stokes their racist genes.
Yeah, they should go ahead and try to pass this legislation despite the fact that the majority of the public doesn't want it. That will really help Republicans in 2010 and 2012.
Of course. They are already claiming its ';unconstitutional';...despite the GOPs regular use of it during the 2000 - 2006 majority.
All they can do is rant and rave they have no power.
I PRAY dems ram health care through without any Republican help. That way, they will take the full blame.
Of course they will. The question will be Who Cares? Who listens to them, only other crazy Right wingers and I really think that is only a small fraction of the country. It has a much better chance of running successfully with only Democrats writing it as they support it. If Republicans help write the bill it will only be to make it not work and to water it down as you said. Why would We want that, since we won the election we have no need for them and that is how this country has run for the last 200 years. Winners write Bills and losers cry foul. Bipartisanship is just a theory for losers.
Can I just ask a quick question, here? If this Democratic health care reform legislation is so vital to our economy, and people are dying slow, agonizing deaths for lack of insurance, and the Democrats have a majority in Congress, then why don't they just PASS THE STUPID THING? I thought that was the whole point of having a majority. You know, ';We won, you lost, get over it';, as you Pseudo-Libs on here are so fond of saying. So what's the holdup? Some of the Dems finally recognizing this thing as right out of the Big Book Of Really Crappy Ideas?
Any Democratic healthcare plan would be a disaster. If you support it you might as well send me $10 to tell you why it is bad. That is how unintelligent you would have to be to side with it. Trust me, I work in the healthcare industry at the top level. People are silly to think that healthcare reform will penalize or hurt the evil insurance companies....hehehe. That is all just a scam. The insurance companies and the government or in bed together. All you are doing is greenlighting the government into spending more of your hard earned money and contracting it (or donating it) to those same big bad insurance companies. Its guaranteed revenue. They want nothing better than for our system to change. They will make a bigger killing than they already are and you helped em. Its called the old switcheroo.
