Sorry that's a win - it's that simple.
Don't be surprised if a few ReTHUGS jump ship and abandon that loser Boehner.
He's history.

24. When the people decide to stand up for their rights

and for meaningful change, there will be change.

[lib2DaBone]

26. Agree.. its not right vs left....

..its HAVES VS HAVE NOTS.

When the people realize they are being screwed by the big corps along with the bought and paid for politicians.. it will end.

[NNN0LHI]

27. Doubtful

Take the big corps and politicians out of the picture and we will still have our fellow citizens gladly cutting each others throat for a few pieces of gold. Its the American way.

14. That must be why

the repukes are lining up to denounce this 'flawed' bill, huh? Oh, I know...tomorrow, they'll hold a presser and announce, 'nyah, nyah, fooled ya! We wanted to do make sure our corporate insurance buddies were taken care of, so we started playing six-dimensional chess - a Jedi mindfuck trick requiring millions of dollars to create an astroturf organization that schlepped teabaggers to town-hall meetings all over the country. Yep, that's the ticket! It would have been too simple to just support the motherfuckin' bill - where's the fun in that?'

:crazy:

Occam's razor...it slices, it dices, it makes mincemeat of logical fallacies. I highly recommend its employment.

[Odin2005]

15. Their opposition is a show for the idiots that vote for them.

If the Pukes were in power they would be likely pushing a similar mandate and everyone here would be calling the bill fascist. They have no political reason to vote for it, just let the DLC Dems push it thought and them reap the benefits by saying you opposed the "evil" bill.

[Cirque du So-What]

17. Whatever the fuck ever

[LibDemAlways]

22. Odin, anyone who is celebrating today will be singing a different tune

in November when the R's take over Congress as a result of this POS. Let them have their moment. It will be short-lived.

[AlinPA]

19. I had to step out for a bit..

I see I didn't miss much...

[lpbk2713]

20. They were doomed from the start.

How could they be expected to rally behind an asshole named BONER ?

[JPZenger]

25. On a tough vote, they let people in tough districts vote no

The Dems will get the votes they need. Secretly, there will be a reservoir of House members who would have been willing to vote yes if they were really needed. Some Dems in tough districts are given a pass if their yes vote wasn't needed.
