I swear to god I thought I saw a midget on there... but it was a photographer on her knees...
I was thinking that this circus just keeps getting better and better!

I don't feel like listening to people I mostly don't care for talk into my ear while I try to write code all day today. Will you keep us all up to date?

It's just background noise at this point... I don't know what they have said... but when I switched between one application and another, I caught a glimpse of the faux little person and it snapped me back into focus for a second...
So far, it's just a lot of rabble rabble rabble... Michelle Malkin is blowing up my twitter feed with her BS, though...
I'll say sure, I'll keep you updated... but I probably won't... but I will post the results of the vote if it happens while I'm paying attention

CSPAN cut to some dumb stuff... I don't know if they are on recess or what... but the crawl at the bottom of the screen says Olympia Snowe will vote IN FAVOR of the bill before the finance committee

It's a step... the best we can hope for is that the republicans' worst case scenario comes true and private insurers go under...

They won't from this bill. They'll do just fine and Republicans will use it as an example of democrats not being able to do anything right. And if costs get worse, they will say its because of the bill. The Max Baucus dems are playing right into the republicans' hands.

Actually, they'll probably just be glad this issue is over for now. For all the fight they've put in it to only come out with a skeleton of what they hoped for, they'll be eager to put this behind them. That is assuming a better bill doesn't pass instead of Baucus's crap.

Does Olympia Snowe voting for it really make it bipartisan?
