nice

Thats good news not only because we won't die in an overcooked earth but it clears the path for the CIR.

What about HCR and EB?

did they pass it today ? On Cspan it says House Passes Climate and Energy Pill. Now it heads to the senate.

Yes, the House passed it today on a vote of 219-212.

A majority in the house is 218 right?

Yes, according to the NYtimes 218 is the majority vote.

that bill is a piece of crap.

Oh and is not passing the senate btw.

A defeat on the climate bill would negatively affect the momentum of immigration reform as it's the next one on the list. It would embolden Obama's opponents to go after another of his major objectives and will use any victory as a rallying cry.

The Senate will work on the climate bill, and the President will work on securing the votes just like he worked to secure the votes in the House.
