Healthcare

What Arlen Said…

Holy shit on a stick. I never thought I'd ever write that headline, but there it is. I think you'll agree that it was time:

"I believe we ought to pass comprehensive health care reform and we ought to do it now and there is a way to do it," [Arlen] Specter said. "I provided the 60th vote. We passed it in the Senate. Let the House accept it, simultaneously with a bill to make certain changes through reconciliation and 50 votes. There will be no disagreement about taking away the giveaway to Nebraska and Louisiana and the other inappropriate measures but let's move ahead and let's move ahead now."

Bill passing fever! Catch it!
