I thought the government gave up on that around the time the final season of LOST started... I hear Rahm Emanuel is a big fan. Despite being someone who passionately believes we need serious reform (much more than is what included in this bill) and who 'studied' political science as an undergrad, even I was almost completely checked-out of the ongoing debate that so many thought was over once those liberal yahoos in Massachusetts elected Scott 'Pickup Truck' Brown.
Well it seems the Democrats realized that their ship (the S.S. November Election) was sinking whether they pushed a reform bill through at the last minute or not, so I'm glad they gave it the 'ol college try (where did that phrase come from? no one tries in college). Apparently Obama will sign the bill into law on Tuesday, while the Senate presumably squawks about the alterations the House made before those additional elements can also become law.
BUT: I still hate Nancy Pelosi. Here's why...
... 'nuff said.
Anyways, glad things are moving forward. Here's a few links if you care what this 'groundbreaking' bill is going to do for (or as the Republicans would say 'to') this country.
