IS RECONCILIATION ON THE HORIZON?

Reconciliation to get the health care bill passed? I must be dreaming. After learning about President Obama's decision to pander to the right wing on deficits (after he stood by and watched as Wall Street looted our treasury), I really like this for Main Street.

But I especially like this from Ed Schultz.



Seriously, Democrats need to start acting like they have a majority, instead of fretting over whether the Republicans are going to filibuster in the Senate and call them names. If you can't govern with 59-41 majority you really shouldn't be in the politics business.

Force the filibuster, use reconciliation, and let the Republicans explain their Party of No position.
