House Majority Leader Confirms what SAB Regulars Have Known for Weeks

  1. Nancy the botoxed Baltimore bint Pelosi can’t count.
  2. The Democrats in the House don’t have the votes to pass Obama Care

SAB Regulars are encouraged to not hold their breaths waiting for the “Omama Approved” MSM to report on this.

Exclusive: Robust Public Option Lacks Votes To Pass House, Internal Whip Count Document Shows
By Greg Sargent

The House Dem leadership has conducted its preliminary whip count and has tallied up less than 200 likely Yes votes in support of a health care reform bill with a robust public option, well short of the 218 needed for passage, according to an internal whip count document I’ve obtained.

The document — compiled by the office of House leader James Clyburn — was distributed privately at a meeting between Clyburn and House progressives today where the fate of the public option was the subject of some contentious debate, with liberals demanding that House leaders push harder to win over votes.

Clyburn spokesperson Kristie Greco would only say: “We currently do not have the votes for a robust public option.”

Yep, the bestest Congress the Unions can buy.
