Will the Senate do it?
I think there’s a good chance. There are a lot of Democrats up for reelection next year who aren’t going to be willing to fight it. The question is whether or not the president will be willing to risk a veto. Especially if it may get overridden.
I had been meaning to link to this entertaining and enlightening article on our fearless leaders, by Kevin Williamson, but had gotten busy, and one of my commenters beat me to it. Anyway, here it is, temporarily at the top of the page.
…and start over. I agree.
Mitch Daniels says that living next door to Illinois is like living next door to the Simpsons.
A bi-partisan bill to cap state employee pensions? Let’s hope.
That’s what ObamaCare is.
[Update a few minutes later]
The House has voted to repeal, with four Democrat votes. Now Harry Reid will be on the hot seat.
[Update a while later]
In 2010, the Democrats passed ObamaCare by a 7 vote margin. In 2011, the Republicans passed the bill to repeal ObamaCare with a 55 vote margin.
In each case, one side of the vote was bi-partisan. In both cases, the bi-partisan vote was against ObamaCare.
That’s because we had to pass the bill to find out what was in it. Though technically, I think that there was one Republican vote for ObamaCare (Cao).
Ex-Queen Nancy says that it’s Bush’s fault that she lost her job. May her delusions reign over the Dems forever.
Yes, this is the logical conclusion from their beliefs:
Joe Citizen has an inviolable claim to other people’s money but not to his own.
How weird is that?
Only an “intellectual” could believe it.
Hasn’t Virgin Galactic been offering this for years? If they’d dropped the price, it would be news, but I don’t know why people have been bothering to link to this story.
Articles like this don’t seem to take into account what the PhD is in. I think we could use more engineers and fewer “studies” majors, who probably comprise most of the PhDs serving coffee or dressing hair (not that we’re suffering a shortage of lawyers, either). But it’s all part of the (finally) popping higher-education bubble. I suspect that it’s really going to burst in the coming fiscal environment, and no doubt with much wailing and keening from the “liberal” education racket.
