Stealth of Night
In the stealth of last night, or more accurately around 6:00 am this morning the House passed a bill to strip about $50 billion from Medicare, Medicaid, and Student Loan Programs. Also attached to the bill was the Alaska oil drilling proposal.
The Rethuglicans feel they have to cut spending on the poor and elderly because they've given such lucrative tax cuts to the rich. And, this gift is just in time for Christmas. Lovely people, aren't they?
The Senate has a final opportunity to block this bill tomorrow. We'll see.

But as long as they call it a "Christmas" break, they are good, right?
