Senate Republicans say
they will use every parliamentary tactics in the book to
really punish the Dems if the Dems push through health care
nationalization via "reconciliation" that unfairly limits debate,
etc., utterly against all Senate tradition on what the
reconciliation process is for. I won't believe it until I see it.
They (GOP senators) have made such pledges many times before, but
they always capitulate like emasculated chihuahuas when the time
comes to really act. That's what they did in mulitiple failed
battles (or non-battles, because they didn't really fight on
judges. And, considering that it is dififficult for invertebrates
to find spines, that's what i fully expect again: Craven
capitulation without having achieved much of anything. I sure
hope I'm wrong.
