HEALTH CARE VOTE - AT 11:06 P.M. ET:  Voting is underway in the House on the obscene health-care bill.  I think the debate lasted, oh, a day.  That's enough to change the entire health-care system, isn't it?  That's enough to take over a sixth of the American economy, isn't it?  Sure.  That's change we can believe in.

BULLETIN:  The House just passed the bill.  Only a single Republican voted in favor.  The Dems needed 218.  At this moment they have 219, the opposition has 215.

Lots of applause by the liberals in the House.

The Senate must act, of course.  This isn't law yet, thank goodness.
