Is this a new Low for Democracy?

Saturday, November 21, 2009, every Republican in the U.S. Senate voted against allowing a discussion of Health Care Reform on the floor of the U.S. Senate!

Almost everyone, by any accounting system, agrees that the U. S. health care system is a disaster, but every Republican senator voted against discussing the problem.

But, of course, they personally have the "Cadillac" of health care insurance--a government sponsored program--the kind of program they do not want the rest of us to access.
