Who are trying to fool?

Hi

Today I would like to discuss some thing that seems like a typical congressional move. Some democratic senators claim to be against the health care reform bill going through the senate. When it was time for a vote on procedural matters, they voted to let the bill pass out of committee and go to the floor. Once on the floor these senators say they will oppose the bill. Here is where the rub comes in. On procedural votes the senate needs 60 votes to stop a filibuster. When the bill reaches the floor it only needs 50 votes. In effect by voting to pass the bill out of committee they are actually voting for the bill itself. Because of the difference in votes needed these same senators can vote against the bill, and say "I voted against the bill". The whole truth is that this is nothing more than a political ploy, the senators can have it two ways. Is this democracy? Do we, the American public, deserve this? H*** NO. I wish these people would just listen to the tea parties and the town hall meetings. Listen to what the public is saying.

We can still hope and pray that the senate will get this message and do the right thing.

Meanwhile pray for our brave servce people.
GOD Bless
