Something smells like poop on a Christmas Tree: Senate passes Health Care Bill

As expected the Harry Reid kept his crew of crooks together long enough to push out the Senate Health Care Bill.  It passed 60-39 (Senator Jim Bunning R-Ky was absent). How everyone seems to be trying to use the words "Historic" and "Landmark" to cover up the stench of the bad bill that just passed. We will be hearing those two words a lot, don't fall for it.  The Hindenburg was historic and Pearl Harbor was a landmark event, neither had happy endings.


Other words also being applied today to describe the passing of this senate bill, is stink or stench. Both word are far better describers of the senate bill in both the way it gained consensus and in the actual legislative language. 


In typical Washington fashion, such a flaming turd of a bill was deliver just in time for Christmas. 


From The Hill:

The Senate approved sweeping healthcare reform legislation by the narrowest of partisan margins early Christmas Eve morning, placing President Barack Obama closer than ever to signing a longtime Democratic priority into law.

The 60-39 tally split directly along partisan lines, with Sen. Jim Bunning (R-Ky.) absent, underscoring not only the great divide between Democrats and Republicans but also the deftness with which Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) at long last united his fractious conference by offering key compromises to centrists but keeping liberals in the fold.
