Chuck Butcher displays his perfect pitch on the state of the healthcare reform debate: "I'm glad I'm not a Democrat trying to fluff the Senate Bill, but I'm much happier I'm not a Republican trying not to look like a plutocrat while doing their shilling."
But you have to wonder in re: yesterday's curling-like summit gabfest at Blair House - where Puerto Rican nationalists once tried to snuff President Truman (an observation by way of nothing whatsoever) - was John Boehner really pissed off about the Democrats' proposed tax on tanning salons and cosmetic surgery?
I followed along only in fits and hi-def spurts, but I did catch a few angry GOP references in the negative to "two thousand pages" and wondered if the Republicans were, at long last, repudiating their party's ideological reliance on the Bible.
