Carville:
Democrats should dare GOP to filibuster health care reform
Posted: August 17th, 2009 05:05 AM ET
From CNN Associate Producer Martina Stewart
WASHINGTON (CNN) – After two weeks
of sometimes contentious congressional town hall meetings on
health care reform, and amid growing signals from the Obama administration
that it may be willing to compromise on a key aspect of health
care, Democratic strategist James Carville said Sunday that congressional
Democrats should force Republicans to filibuster health care
reform in the Senate.
“What about this?,” Carville
said Sunday on CNN’s State of the Union, “Suppose they
pass a House bill that can get 56 Senate Democrats.” Then,
Carville suggested, instead of using reconciliation, a special
budgetary maneuver in Senate procedure that frustrate GOP attempts
to mount a filibuster, Democrats should call for a vote. “And
make [Republicans] filibuster it. But the old kinda way is that
they filibuster it and make’em go three weeks and all night
and [Democrats] will be there the whole time.
“Then, you say, ‘They’re
the people that stopped it. We had a majority of Democrats. We
had a good bill. They stopped it.’"

are also doing a canned food drive to collect canned food items
and donate them to a food pantry in Astoria, NY. It would be
greatly appreciated if members could bring canned food items
to our meeting tomorrow, and those attending will gladly take
them and donate them for you. For more information on the Mini
Golf Tournament itself or the food drive, please contact Chris
Lyddy.
