GOP stall tactics to kill health care reform
This is really incredible video to watch. If you want to understand what the press means when they say that Republicans are trying to stall out health care reform, check out this video. It depicts Republican (Senate) committee members denying the committee leader's request to approve Republican amendments by unanimous consent (meaning a block vote to approve them).
The good news is that we can look at this tactic as old news: this committee is, this morning, the first in the Senate to pass its version of a health care reform bill.
Bonus question: want to guess how many Republican committee members voted to approve the bill?
Answer: none.
