Well, recently the health care bill has been working it's way back into the news. As lawmakers draw closer to making a decision, the eyes of America are watching. Well...maybe not all of America...but at least some people are paying attention. Anyway, Congress has announced that they will present another draft of the bill as early as sometime next week to be reviewed by the CBO. If the CBO determines that the plan does indeed meet the Obama administration's budget goals, then the bill will move on to it's final stages.
However, many republicans including Senator John McCain are still showing their disapproval. Especially on issues of inclusion, or rather exclusion. Basically they have been complaining that this is a Democratic bill and the Republicans have been mostly left out of the process.
Anyway, we're almost there guys, just wait a bit longer...actually that's what Congress has been telling us for the past few months...>.<

So how will the bill reform the health care system?
"Basically they have been complaining that this is a Democratic bill and the Republicans have been mostly left out of the process."
Of course it's a democratic bill, the GOP are outnumbered in both houses, and they don't have control of the oval office. If they were given a chance to review it, they would filibuster it - thus the bill would never pass.
I'm glad that they're finally coming to a conclusion the whole health care bill dilemma. As for Senator McCain and the Republicans, the party that doesn't not have a majority in the House always uses the excuse that because a bill doesn't go their way, that means it's a "Democratic bill" - similar to what Kevin said.
HA, I KNEW IT!!!!
I KNEW THE GOP WOULD TRY TO DO THIS.

It sounds really good to know that at least something is coming along with this bill.
I agree with you Kevin. Of course Republicans would display disapproval if this was a Democratic Bill.
