For those attempting to figure out what is in the Senate ObamaCare bill, you are in the company of 99 U.S. Senators who have not seen the bill. At least that is what the New York Times is reporting:

Byron York has more on Ft. Hood. Notice how quick Obama was to jump to conclusions in the Dr. Gates v. the Police matter, but we all need to be patient and avoid jumping to conclusions in this, according to him.

The Speaker of the House and the President have two options right now: hold and lose the vote in the House, or wait and vote after the Senate.
