Blue Dogs Miraculously Give Way On Demands To Kill More Poor People

Oh look, positive health care news out of the House! Whoa whoa, TAKE IT EASY, Mitch Stewart -- no money yet! Much work remains, for Health Care. But still, it looks like mean old Henry Waxman was able to reach a deal with those bitchy House Blue Dogs without sacrificing anything super-vital, like a public plan or an employer mandate. (Although certain minimums have been adjusted!) Now the House should -- should! -- be able to pass a decent enough bill in the end, which will be important for final committee negotiations, given the aristocratic Hell-bill that six actual whores in the Senate are producing. Nice work, opportunist Blue Dogs who were elected solely because of historic GOP unpopularity! You may now return to your cubby holes. [ TPM ]
