The House bill on
health care reform passed. This is good news. The Stupak amendment
was accepted. That is the
collateral damage. Or the necessary compromise to get better health care for all (except for the collateral damage).
No Republican voted against the Stupak amendment. Isn't that something? I'm beginning to see a pattern here, what with only Republicans voting against the right of gang-rape survivors to sue. But of course
several Democrats also voted for the amendment.
As is required, I'm of course pleased to see the House bill pass.
