It's like a man afraid to let his wife go to work without him, because she might cheat on him ... They own the House and the Senate so where is the problem?
Obama is the leader of the Democratic party and is using his karma (don't hit me) he is using his karma right or for wrong to persaude his party to swing their votes to his idelogy.
It's too late for me to look it up, but the last vote on health care was finally persuaded by a lone hold out in the mid west that had concerns about aboration. His vote was purchased with the promise his state, out of all of the other states would not hae to pay any increase in medi-care.
Votes can be purchased ...
At some point in time the truth will be the truth and not just polictics.
