What is in the HCR Bill.

[Lady's Human]

Actually, I did give facts directly related to ANY congressional legislation.

Again, in case you missed it, nothing has passed through the committees and been brought to the house floor for a vote.

Nothing.

Nada.

Zip.

Zero.

There are hundreds of bills pending before congress, most of which no one will ever hear of. Why? They have been submitted as bills, and have numbers, but the status is "in committee"

After that rather lengthy process, despite what Speaker Pelosi would liek to have happen, the bill is brought to the full house for a vote.

Guess what? It still isn't law yet.

The Senate gets it's chance, and amendments are offered, changes made, and debated..........and it can be fillibustered and killed on the senate floor, in which case it goes back to square one.

After the House and Senate have voted on bills, the bills got to a joint Senate House committee for reconciliation, as no bill of this type is ever identical in both houses.

Then......it goes back to the House and Senate to be voted on in its complete form.

IF it ever gets out of the Senate I might be concerned, but I don't see that happening, as both chambers have other rather more pressing bills on their plates, such as the budget.

The status of the bill, as reported on Thomas, is ordered to be amended......

It's a long way from being law.

Great googly moogly! You havent provided any facts.

Obama wanted this voted on this month, I wouldnt call that a long way from becoming law. How long did it take for the Patriot Act to become law?



You only care if HR 3200 comes up for a vote?!! You dont care what is in it during the debates or what is talked about on the floor, or in THMs? You dont care that the POTUS is pushing this for a vote? You only care if it might be voted on?

I havent missed anything, and guess what? I dont want HR 3200 anywhere near getting into law.

You may not care about whats in it but I do.

I dont want it to get to get voted on!!! I dont want it even to come close to being voted on! I care whats in it! I dont have health insurance but Ill bet you do. In the future I want to be able chose my HI, not have it dictated by .GOV to me or my employer.

You may be willing to take that chance, but Im not.

Im sorry the POTUS dissed the USPS, take it up with him.

You want to be glib about this? Fine thats your business.

I'll be damned.......

A reasoned description of the legislative process and where the bill(s) currently stand in the process isn't factual?

Huh. Whodathunkit?

The President's demands that it be voted into law ASAP are probably what killed the bill as it currently stands.

Speaking of providing facts, since when are someone's tweets about a bill, largely opinion, facts?

Sweet Zombie Jesus!!

You havent provided any facts reguarding HR 3200. You think HR 3200 is a myth at best as far as I can tell.


What in Jebus's name are you talking about with...

tweets about a bill

WTF is a tweet?!

[Lady's Human]

Mea Culpa......


It's a blog post about the bill.......Far, far more informative than a bunch of tweets, which is what it appears to be.

Stating where HR 3200 stands in the legslative process isn't providing factual information?

I guess it all depends on what your definition of fact is............


BTW, my last response even mentioning the USPS is on the first page.....several posts ago.

Keep up with the thread, come on, man!

Until the MSM reports on this, Ill settle for a blog. Unfortunately, as far as I can tell, the MSM is fronting for the current addministration.

And WTF is a tweet?

Allmost every post you have had in this thread is deffending the USPS.

ETA: Does anybody think our healthcare system should be subject to the same bureaucracy the USPS is subject to?

A "tweet" is s micro-blog post from Twitter, 140 characters or less.

There is no provision in the PROPOSED bill that says you have to sign
up for HC. You can keep your same Doc & private provider if you prefer.

Didn't you ever take a Goverment course in high school?
