No, BB, you have not counted correctly... There are 56 Senators for health care reform and 44 against!!! So right now we have minority rule... And if you break down that minority into actual percentage of the population with less populated states still having two senators this is more like 20% ruling the other 80%... That is closer to what is occuring...

The Repubs have thrown more filibusters (and threats of) into the so-called democratic system since 2006 than the Dems had used in over 20 years... This sytem is tyerribly broken and it won't be fixed until... No, there won't be a fix... Tom Jefferson and Co's little experiement is terminally ill and because of Senate rules it cannot even fix its ownself...
