Very Frustrated Dem Senator Wants Obama to Bypass the Legislative Process on Healthcare!

Senator Debbie Stabenow, a guest on the Stephanie Miller Show talks about ramming the healthcare legislation through.
'What if we needed 60 votes for everything" Stephanie asks!
Stabenow responds: "Nobody is more frusterated than we are.....This administration can do some things without it being done legislatively and I'm encouraging them to do that as well!
She complains that she's spent MONTHS on healthcare but it's only until the recent Scott Brown win that they have hit a legislative "snag". Unfortunately Stabenow was NOT asked what she has been doing for the last year, when her party had the votes to pass it! Now that Brown is in, all of a sudden they have to bypass the legislative process???
