GOP: Silence Speech November 21, 2009

Silence debate. That’s what the GOP Senate fat cats who pay $500 for their comprehensive health care wanted. America won tonight.

The hurdles placed in the way of a rule requiring health insurance are absurd. Not just the constant cacophony of lies from certain business interests: Who would expect any less?

But silencing speech on exploring a huge American problem hurting every single person is sickening. Why would the GOP do such a thing to America?

Fortunately, the Democrats proved that Washington is not Moscow, Pyongyang or Tashkent, after all.

Filibuster: A friend thought it means piracy. She had it almost right.
