  • Senator Byrd is FOR reconciliation in the Obama bill,

    ... and he was against it in the Clinton Bill,

    Different bill, different situation as far as he is concerned.

    Look it up!

  • Yeah I saw that......guess that makes him a hypocrite just like many other politicians.

  • @RadAntelope You forget that the Obama healthcare bill was in fact not snuck through the Senate via reconciliation. It was passed by a 60-39 margin on Christmas eve.

  • My how times have changed.

  • @woodsprout "Reconciliation was NEVER NEVER NEVER intended to be used as a shield for controversial legislation." Yet that's just what Obama and the Democrats are using it for.
