The State of the Union typically takes place on the third Tuesday of January, which would be Jan. 19.
But it’s unclear whether negotiators will be able to smooth out significant disagreements in such a short time.
Congress traditionally does not reconvene until the week of the president’s address but leaders may bring their colleagues back to work early to get a jumpstart on remaining legislative work before election-year politics begins to intervene….
[Max] Baucus said differences over how to pay for new federal health insurance subsidies and limits on abortion coverage are two of the biggest obstacles.
The House legislation would pay for a large portion of its benefits by imposing a tax surcharge on individuals who earn more than $500,000 and families earning over $1 million.
The Senate bill would instead tax high-cost insurance plans and raise the Medicare payroll tax on individuals earning over $200,000 and families earning more than $250,000.
Congress traditionally does not reconvene until the week of the president’s address but leaders may bring their colleagues back to work early to get a jumpstart on [b]bullying and bribing them into voting their way on [/b]remaining legislative work.
There, that’s more accurate.

THE ENEMY WISHES TO RENAME CHRISTMAS TO “AMERICAN COMMUNISM DAY!”
THAT’S WHAT THIS “HEALTH CARE PLAN” IS REALLY ALL ABOUT!
PSYOPS: INSTEAD OF A DAY TO WORSHIP JESUS, THE DAY AMERICA TURNED GODLESS. INSTEAD OF A CELEBRATION, AN ANNUAL REMINDER TO BE DEMORALIZED AS A SECOND RATE COMMUNISM WHERE ONE NO LONGER HAS PROPERTY RIGHTS.
It’s why the Socialist Democrats are SO dire to get it passed by Christmas Eve – And have it signed by The Great O on Christmas, itself.
It’s do or die for Reid,Pelosi and all the other infiltrators, those blackmailed by sex traps, Gary Condit’s “Disposal services, fear of what they believe will be exposure of past CIA Directors’ abuses of power, so, either be newly appointed Commissars (And keep their own riches and Powers) in the New American Communist Party, or face certain firing squads for treason in the near future.
What is this bill, anyway, in its incomphrensibility? Is it really a blueprint for this new Communist government, inasmuch as no one has read it – Yet they’ll have SIGNED it, in the end? Plausible deniability, so as to remain in power in the new structure?
What it does as an enemy “Softening” operation is to cause money to be indiscriminately thrown everywhere to disguise it’s true intent: It not only encourages enemy terrroism and military attack, it guarantees it!
When the government is obligated to pay for all the subsequent wounded’ medical care (Imagine… Plutonium dust over major cities…) it is a great way to deprive our military of their boots, beans and bullets.
The way it is, now, the enemy is ASSURED of immediate retaliation if they do so. Not if wounded Americans no longer form militias to defend their homes, but scream for more entitlements, instead. Sue for peace, and simply acknowledge the new power structure, instead.
Since some will resist Obama’s sudden nationalization of all assets, and complete taxation, he will petition the UN to bring in CHICOM troops (Over Reid’s new hidden in the “Stimulus Package” troop rail line from San Diego Harbor to Nevada, heart of the West) to “Maintain Civil Order.” That’s why the timing for the passage of this is on X-mas Eve, so that The Great O can sign it on Christmas. None of them are lying when they openly state that “This is the most significant bill the American People will know…” INDEED!
Plus, there is the timing of a major inheritance case hearing, known as the “Chris S” case, with which I am very personally involved, that occurs that day, also. If the enemy had its way, the very right to own property, especially estates, ranches, industries, fortunes and the like would be divided from the intended inheritee to all greedy family members, instead. The very demoralization of – There’s simply no sense in working hard to accumulate property for your progeny if such would be the case, where the State “Distributes” or seizes your wealth upon your death.
There is rhyme to reason that all of the Gary Condit’s “Disposals for hire” “Dissappear on the 25th of any given month. Chandra Levy, Laci Peterson, Jonbennet Ramsey…”
This may very well mean this X-mas will be the day the CHICOMS send a nuke into Pearl Harbor on one of their Matson Containers, and wipe out all the US military bases on HI, while leaving Maui’s (Which has none) International Airport in place, in order to refuel Russian Bear Bombers. And the like. Or? For Obama is certainly an economic Manchurian Candidate, for HOW LONG has been run by the CIA? Will Americans be treated to a real X-mas present as Soetono’s eligibility to even be President is suddenly yanked?
The word “plot” in the headline seems so apt.
