Over the last six years, so many Americans have focused on how awful ObamaCare has been for the country that the intriguing story of how it came to pass in the first place has been all but forgotten.
In the Spring of 2009 the Democrats (and two Independents) were one vote shy of the 60 votes they needed to pass the Affordable Care Act — better known as ObamaCare — with a filibuster-proof supermajority in the Senate.
But the Democrats had tricks up their sleeves. Longtime Republican Pennsylvania Senator Arlen Spector jumped ship over to the Democrats giving them the 60th vote they needed. But an act of fate would drop them back to 59 when Massachusets Senator Ted Kennedy passed away and Republican Scott Brown shockingly won the special election to take his senate seat.
Not so fast. The Democrats called for a vote on Christmas Eve, mere weeks before Brown would take office, and the Democrats rammed the vote through with Kennedy’s interim Democrat senator. The bill they passed that Christmas Eve hardly even resembled the one narrowly passed by the House previously.
And now we learn that “Dirty Harry” Reid and the Democrats are up to their old tricks — this time regarding Antonin Scalia’s empty seat on the Supreme Court. To learn on how they plan on forcing a SCOTUS vote, continue reading on the next page:
impeach this worthless piece of s*** from the floor. clean out Congress get rid of career politicians make America great again
You need to be gone .
It’s not entirely his own fault. (there are no term limits!) He’s been in the Senate for so many years that he’s been able to pick up a lot of dirty rotten tricks of the trade. He’s gotten so good at wrecking the Country, that he actually gets a kick out of it! He learned most of his foul deeds (tricks), from just hanging around DC, and will certainly pass on to others, the best ones he’s got, before he leaves his Office, Yes, Harry Reid knows just how to make evil things really happen, and he will share all he knows with all the new, young, dumb and stupid newbies,He will teach them how to really do a job extra well. I think that is why Obama has trusted him to do everything he wants him to do. HEIL$#%&!@*
Reid puts a lot of SOUL into his job. But beyond that, the man hasn’t got a soul, and wouldn’t know what to do with one if he had one.
Dirty Hairy Reed..Lets not cave.
No….. nothing will be worse than another obama elected SCOTUS.
