Republicans had their chance for bipartisanship and showed that partisan politics is more important than the country. Zero votes in the House for the stimulus bill and only three in the Senate has it’s repercussions. Obama basically told them to get f*cked:
A major overhaul of the health care system, he told the Republican leadership, would be done using a legislative process known as reconciliation, meaning that the GOP won’t be able to filibuster it.
Congress has until October 15 to pass health care or student lending reform under the normal process. If it doesn’t, reconciliation can be used to eliminate the 60-vote requirement.
