Senate Passes Health Care Bill
You’ve probably already heard that the Senate passed the health care reform bill today, after months of political wrangling designed to remove any vestiges of actual usefulness: Senate approves landmark health-care bill.
Democrats are increasingly confident that President Obama will sign a bill into law in early 2010 that would prevent insurers from refusing coverage to people with pre-existing conditions, limit the amount individuals have to pay for their own care and require other reforms that Obama called “the toughest measures ever taken to hold the insurance industry accountable.”
“We are now incredibly close to making health insurance reform a reality in this country,” Obama told reporters in a White House appearance shortly after the Senate vote. “Our challenge now is to finish the job.”
At least the commie “public option” to pollute our precious bodily fluids was defeated. Or was it?
