4. The senate passed health care legislation by a 60 to 40 vote.
The house passed health care legislation by an even wider margin. Nothing has been rammed down anyone's throats. Its true a few inconsistencies need to be ironed out and that's what reconciliation is for - to reconcile the minor differences between the two passed pieces of legislation.
This is no big deal - but a desperate opposition owned by the insurance industry will say anything and do anything to kill health care reform dead in its tracks.
The fact is both the House and the Senate have passed health care reform - republican'ts just don't want to admit it.
