Fifty-two votes, that's what Senator Tom Harkin said yesterday is the number of “solid” votes in the Senate for a public option. That should be two more than needed. With a 50-50 tie I kind of have a hunch VP Biden would vote yea. Surely, surely there is not one Democratic Senator in America that would vote to filibuster a vote on the upcoming health care bill. If there is even one Democratic Senator in America who will lock arms with Mitch McConnell and vote to block, to deny, to filibuster the representatives of the American citizens, our U.S. Senators, a floor vote on a health care bill that will save half a million American lives over the next ten years then let them stand up NOW and say who they are. What Democratic Senator in America wants to look themselves in the mirror in ten years and know that Kevorkian may have assisted in the deaths of a hundred or so people who wanted to die but they themselves will have assisted in the deaths of half a million of Americans who wanted to live? Who are you I ask? Stand up and tell us now or either commit to yourself that when the health care bill comes to the Senate floor that you may or may not vote for it but that you will not prevent your colleagues from doing what they were elected to do... voting on legislation. The filibuster has been abused by both sides of the isle many times in the recent decades. With half a million American lives in the balance, now is not the time to abuse it again.
