| | Senator Bernie Sanders pulls amendment after being told to read it aloud | | I think this is a big victory for the country here. Senator bernie sanders attempted to put a 767 page single-payer amendment into the health care bill without letting anyone read it. Senator Coburn objected demanding it be read aloud. I was originally going to make this thread about how glad I was to hear this was being read aloud. That's not going to happen though. This amendment must have been pretty awful because Senator Sanders has decided to pull the amendment for fear of what people will say when they hear what is actually IN the amendment. Democrats really are trying to ram this bill through fast and don't want any delays, especially if those delays lead to people knowing what's in the bill. What are your opinions? Did Coburn do the right thing by demanding this amendment be read aloud? Do you think Sanders pulled the amendment because he was afraid of people discovering what was in it, or because he feared spending hours reading it aloud would hurt the Dems chance to meet their deadline for passing the full bill? | |

| Was Barry Sanders The Best Ever? | | I was not that into football but I'm a bigger fan now and really just starting to be a fan. Someone who was a big football fan I use to know said he thought barry sanders was the best ever. Do you agree at least somewhat?what was in it, or because he feared spending hours reading it aloud would hurt the Dems chance to meet their deadline for passing the full bill? | |
