Obama “Doesn’t Worry about Procedural Rules???”
In his interview with Fox News today, President Obama claimed that he doesn’t “spend a lot of time worrying about what the procedural rules are in the House or the Senate.” Well in that case, why has the President spent so much of the last several weeks demanding an “up or down vote” on his health plan? And if it makes no difference to the President, why doesn’t he demand that House Members show the “courage” he said they needed and vote to approve the “Cornhusker Kickback,” the “Louisiana Purchase,” and all the other backroom deals included in the Senate bill through an honest, up-or-down vote?
