Posted By Vicki McClure Davidson on November 7, 2009
11:44 ET: Congress is currently in session today, a Saturday, to ramrod this unconstitutional, socialized health care disaster through to a vote later tonight. Some Democrat congressional electeds are still undecided. Pelosi will be in arm-twisting thug mode all day.

They are looking at a vote tonight between 6-8 PM.
Check out this informative post with valuable information on the health care bill of the Democrats and that of the Republicans:
Nice Deb: Pelosi Plan v.s. GOP Plan Side By Side
From Brian Darling, Big Government: Historic PelosiCare Debate Starts Right Now:
Today, a historic debate will commence on a bill that would impose big government health care on all Americans. Nobody knows if this bill is going to pass and many questions about the bill remain unanswered. All those who cherish the idea of limited government and a health care system driven by free market principles are hoping that good prevails over evil.
Yesterday, the House Rules Committee passed the rule to consider H.R. 3962 (PelosiCare), the Affordable Health Care for America Act, and this debate will be covered live on C-SPAN all day long. Today, the American people can watch the debate in the House of Representatives on legislation that would dramatically change the way health care services are delivered.
From Politico, Nancy Pelosi is still dealing as vote nears:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has conjured up plenty of old ghosts since launching the health care fight back in July, invoking Democrats who laid the foundation for this year’s push — like Franklin Roosevelt and Harry S. Truman.
In a way, those titans came up short. Pelosi owes her current place on the cusp of a historic health care vote Saturday to far more anonymous contemporaries, like New Jersey Rep. Robert Andrews and California Rep. Xavier Becerra, whom Pelosi sent out to get the votes.
The fate of the bill itself rests on the shoulders of a new generation of Democrats whose young careers will be defined, in part, by the votes they cast Saturday — votes sure to be used against many of them in 2010.
But Pelosi, ever mindful of the political stakes, seems to have convinced them that there is more danger in not passing a bill after all this time, than in passing one. It just had to be the right bill, one that tried to take into account the whims of her caucus — with a provision here, and language there and compromise over there, that built a majority vote by vote.
[...]
But Pelosi’s not there yet, as she acknowledged Thursday — saying she’ll have the 218 votes by the time she needs them. Last-minute flare-ups on abortion and immigration Thursday threatened to complicate the bill — but at this point didn’t seem enough to derail it.
Ronald Reagan spoke out against the oppressions of government-run, socialized medicine... let us hope that our Congress votes accordingly today.
From Republican Whip Eric Cantor:
Despite unemployment at its highest level since 1983, Speaker Pelosi continues to push her Caucus to pass a trillion dollar government takeover that will replace Americans’ health care. As of today, at least 69 Democrats have expressed opposition to the Speaker’s health care bill. As the bill comes to the House floor, how many Democrats will stand up and vote against a health care bill that raises taxes, cuts benefits to seniors, and spends money that families and small businesses across America cannot afford?
A faint glimmer of hope from Sister Toldjah, Health care “reform” goes to vote in the House:
After an appearance by our celebrity President earlier today and intense lobbying efforts by his administration, the House will vote later today on the mammoth health care “reform” bill that has become the centerpiece of President Obama’s first year agenda. Do Democrats have the votes? Maybe, but on the Republican side of things the GOP is telling MSM outlets that not a single one of the 177 Republicans in the House will vote for this pro-abortion, pro-big government, pro-illegal immigrant coverage, anti-patient “health care” bill. Bravo.
