3. You need 51 votes. There was no effort to even include a public option!

If Democrats won't pass legislation when they control the House, Senate and the White House whose fault is that?

And don't blame it on bogus Republican "procedural filibusters" in the Senator.

Senator Reid once again demonstrated that he can end such phantom filibusters whenever he and the Democratic majority wishes.

Those fake filibusters are just a lame excuse and political cover for Democratic Senatorial inaction and surrender to Republican demands.

And we all know about the backdoor deal that President Obama made with big business regarding the so-called "healthcare reform" bill. Facts are facts. No amount of political spin can cover up those facts.
