This is a political forum that is non-biased/non-partisan and treats every person's position on topics equally. This debate forum is not aligned to any political party. In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold. We are here to discuss them in a civil political debate. If this is your first visit to our political forums, be sure to check out the RULES.

The current bill is a result of a long process of debate and "give-and-take" politics. It didn't settle into a definite form until recently, and even now it is still subject to new provisions. So, they couldn't have passed "this" bill -- the bill in its current form is the result of accumulated effort through several phases of discussion. Furthermore, any sufficiently comprehensive reform requires a long process of debating and "giving-and-taking", so an extended time frame is not inappropriate.
A prolonged process was the more desirable method.

here's the best place to put this
altho it's an EARTH SHATTERING development, it doesn't qualify as breaking news
Pelosi: 'Get The Bill. Go For It.'
pelosi, monday, quote: "nobody wants to vote for the senate bill"
that's it, there ya go
she has to pass reid's rendition verbatim in order to qualify for reconciliation, ruled the parliamentarian last week
if she changes a single dotted i, she has to go to conference
NANCY HAS TO GET REID'S BILL THRU THE HOUSE AS IS, EXACTLY AS IS, else it's dead
THE WHITE HOUSE YESTERDAY BACKED OFF IT'S PLEDGE TO PULL THE CORNHUSKER AND OTHER MISCREANT KICKBACKS
FOXNews.com - Obama Drops Objections to Sweetheart Deals as House Moves to Craft Health Care Fixes
which, who cares, you're not hearing me right
THE REAL SIGNIFICANCE of axelrod's latest maneuver is---THOSE POISON PILLS ARE PARTS OF THE PIECE
the white house really CAN'T remove them
not now, not at this stage, there's no time
can't do conference, and, so far as nuke option goes---"nobody wants to vote for the senate bill"
they've already FORGOTTEN (as they always do, it's been more than a day, y'know) their BRILLIANT little gambit about the STUDENT LOANS that was sposed to be their solution
"nobody wants to vote for the senate bill"
ouch
she's down to SLAUGHTER now
they're that desperate
sorry

in addition, our poor palsied speakeress echoes the incoherencies of her boss
altho the bill was originally conceived for ECONOMIC reasons, to reverse the cost trajectory, somehow it got all caught up in the pretty progressive promise to UNIVERSALIZE coverage
we extend coverage to 31 million americans, she repeatedly pushes
fine, ms p
but that's NOT the original conceit
you idiots up there in leadership, you really need to start getting your story straight
no wonder obama's ENITRE AGENDA is dead and he is ALREADY IRRELEVENT
don't blame me, don't blame boehner, don't blame mcconnell, don't blame rush, don't blame palin...
blame it on BECK!
LOL!
