A lot of attention has been devoted to the reluctance of anti-abortion House Democrats to vote for the Senate reform bill, but there’s another ticking time bomb in that legislation which has been virtually ignored—a provision prohibiting illegal immigrants from buying coverage from the proposed health exchanges.
Hispanic [House] Democrats say they haven’t moved from their stance that they […]

MASSA: HOUSE PASSES GOP RESOLUTION TO INVESTIGATE WHAT PELOSI KNEW & WHEN
Whether we like this pervert character or not, it simply isn’t OK for the White House and the Democrat leadership to run him out of Congress just so they can pass Obamacare.
And, if you doubt that’s what happened, I recommend a quick perusal of this article showing that Nancy Pelosi’s office has known about “the Massa problem” for a long time:
An aide to House […]
VIDEO: OBAMACARE MAKES BABIES CRY
This video from the RSC is surprisingly funny considering that it originated with the GOP. It would appear that the wee bairns aren’t very happy about picking up the tab for Obamacare.
The Dems are always selling their boondoggles by saying it (whatever “it” happens to be at the moment) must be done “for the children.” […]
VIDEO: PELOSI CLAIMS SHE’S GOT THE VOTES TO PASS OBAMACARE TODAY
If your BS detector is in decent working order, Madam Speaker’s claim will set it buzzing and flashing. The first time Rose asked her if she had the votes, she ducked the question:
We don’t have a bill yet.
When he pressed her, she produced the following whopper:
Yes. Today, I mean if we took it up today, yes.
Uh-huh … right.
ROBERT BYRD’S SENATE SPEECH AGAINST THE USE OF RECONCILIATION FOR HEALTH REFORM
Democrat Senator Robert Byrd, author of the widely referenced “Byrd rule,” recently wrote in the Charleston Daily Mail that reconciliation could be used for Obamacare.
But as the following video (via Breitbart) shows, this was an Olympic-class flip-flop. In fact, he refused to countenance such a strategy when asked to do so on behalf of Hillarycare.
Here’s his speech in […]
WILL STUPAK SELL OUT ON OBAMACARE?
Back when Bart Stupak’s cadre of anti-abortion Democrats emerged as a stumbling block for Obamacare, one HCBS commenter admonished me to remember that “he IS a Democrat.”
I was reminded of that on Monday when Stupak began making noises like he was preparing to make a deal with the White House and Pelosi that would permit abortion funding in […]
PELOSI: OBAMACARE MUST BE PASSED “SO THAT YOU CAN FIND OUT WHAT’S IN IT”
During a speech to the 2010 Legislative Conference for National Association of Counties, Nancy Pelosi provided what started off as the usual talking points about Obamacare:
You’ve heard about the controversies within the bill, the process about the bill, one or the other. But I don’t know if you have heard that it is legislation for […]
VIDEO: PELOSI & OBAMA LIE ABOUT ABORTION FUNDING IN SENATE “REFORM” BILL
Greg Hendler created this succinct video and offers the following intro:
Whether you are pro-life or pro-abortion, there’s no way you can deny that Obama and Pelosi are lying. Unfortunately, the political game guarantees that more people will hear the lies from our President and Speaker of the House than those who will see the abortion clause in […]
AUDIO: MASSA THREATENS TO UN-RESIGN TO VOTE AGAINST OBAMACARE
It looks like Massa may take Ed Morrissey’s advice concerning what (not) to do if he’s truly being railroaded because of his “No” vote on Obamacare:
If that’s true, then Massa has a perfect remedy at hand: don’t resign. After all, he’s under no particular requirement to do so, except for his own conscience.
In this radio interview, […]
MASSA’S “NO” VOTE ON OBAMACARE BEHIND DEM REDISCOVERY OF ETHICS
If you were wondering why the Democrat leadership (who took years to bring Charlie Rangel to book for his skulduggery) moved to so quickly to dump Eric Massa, the answer is Obamacare:
Massa voted against the House bill and his resignation means Speaker Pelosi needs one less vote to pass reform, dropping the number from 217 to […]
