The 219-212 roll call Sunday by which the House passed the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.
A “yes” vote is a vote to pass the bill.
Voting yes were 219 Democrats and 0 Republicans.
Voting no were 34 Democrats and 178 Republicans.
bipartisanly rejected that is. We only need a few more republicans in office come november to get the house to yank this bill. Real work will be in the senate, we may not be able to get to tht untill 2012.
Astra-zeneca and Medifast Inc stocks! There’s gold in them there hills!

John, even if every single seat in the House went to Republicans, that would not enable “yanking this bill.” That isn’t how the process works.
If you are thinking that defunding kills it, that is not so. All the mandates would still remain, all the taxes would remain, all the restrictions would remain.

Even if they also got all 100 senate seats and Obama and Biden were to resign, we would still have a democrat in the whitehouse until 2012 at the earliest. By then it would take a miraculous confluence of events to loose ourselves from this AND the SCOTUS will be stacked by leftists to boot.
This fucker is wedged in there like an Alabama tick.

They can pick the bill apart, first off the government mandated insurance wont survive the supreme court.
Then all the republicans have to do is take away the taxes, and this bill is dead. The states pass 10th amendment resolutions saying they won’t pay the states portion of the bill(they will do this) and you will watch this thing fall apart.
Now this is all considering that our currency doesn’t break down(it will) within the next 2 years. If that happens it won’t matter everything will be bankrupt.

I can’t imagine why you have confidence that the Supreme Court will rule against mandating purchase of insurance. Just because the Constitution doesn’t assign a power to the Federal Government has long been no problem whatsoever for the Supreme Court.
You are aware that without Obama’s signature it would take 2/3 majorities in the House and Senate to pass even piecemeal revocations of parts of the bill?
It can’t even happen mathematically in the Senate. If every seat occupied by a Democrat butt that is up for election in 2010 is lost by them, that still won’t give 67. And they won’t lose them all.
Fuck you guys. I want my free healthcare ration.

How about the mandate that every individual buy coverage or be punished? If it is not struck down in court, it is the most dangerous and invasive legal precedent in my lifetime. Is that enough for you? I have more…
11 AG’s have already agreed to a Class Action Suit on Constitutional Grounds…NOT against the whole bill (SCOTUS cases are much more narrow than that in scope).
What they will be fighting is the mandatory insurance coverage and if the FEDS can constitutionally do that.
State Legislators are also concerned that the burden of many mandates will fall on already cash-scrapped states.
(Note: By the way, the fight IS continuing along partisan lines).
