Mostly politics, a few current events, a squirt of seltzer down yer pants .. a little blog for my rambles and rants.

For Fox sake!

 
If you only listen to Fox News. you'd think a couple of wins for Republicans last night will kill the chances of healthcare reform. Maybe someone should tell them that McDonnell and Christie are governors and can't vote on healthcare reform in Congress.

But, guess what? The two Democrats who won congressional elections yesterday in CA-10 and NY-23 CAN vote on the healthcare bill.

In fact, when they won both of those congressional seats, Democrats expanded their House majority. Yesterday, Democrats had 256 voting members in the House...after Owens and Garamendi are sworn in, they'll have 258.
