Saturday Night Special [Open Thread]
Gawker —
... . There's a new Saturday Night Live tonight, and the house is nearing a health care vote. So, yeah: health care vote, comin' up on the floor . Taylor Swift, comin' up on SNL. How excited are we? Not much, if you can't tell. At this point, a Taylor Swift SNL feels overdone, and it hasn't even been done yet. Yes, Kanye West is going to be in one of the skits, and I'm sure it'll be as cute as the time he was in a skit with Mike Meyers after whole "George Bush Doesn't Care About Black People" thing. And the health care bill: all this debate, for what? A piece of legislation that's ...

... will have some sort of effect on the 2010 elections, the pundits are saying. Wow. Give it up to Nancy Pelosi with the whippage, you guys. She’s passed two enormous, signature bills (this and energy) with a caucus that includes two polar opposite blocs, either of which could kill a bill if it wanted to, and both of which are constantly threatening to do that exact thing. And now health care, like energy, will go to the Senate and somehow emerge as a cap gains tax cut. Hooray! [NYT] ...

STREET KNOWLEDGE MEDIA —
Picture 36 After a daylong clash with Republicans over what has been a Democratic goal for decades, lawmakers voted 220 to 215 to approve a plan that would cost $1.1 trillion over 10 years.

Democrats were forced to make major concessions on insurance coverage for abortions to attract the final votes to secure passage, a wrenching compromise for the ...

Ceremonial, Mostly Meaningless
Hollywood Elsewhere —
Ceremonial, Mostly Meaningless The House's passage of the House Healthcare Reform Bill just barely squeaked through -- 220 to 215. A nice event and a victory for Barack Obama, but the bill will be watered down if not gutted by its opponents in the Senate. What happened last night is certainly better than nothing, but all we're likely to get at the end of the road is a de-balled version of the Swiss health care system. Public option, adieu. The footprints of cowards, eternal disrepute, stinks to high heaven.
