High School with Ashtrays

It's like they're members of the high school student council and they just make shit up as they go along and then pat each other on the back for being oh so smart. And the people in charge are those same douchebags you always made fun of while you were doing cool shit in the parking lot. Who the hell cares what Max Baucus and Kent Conrad think? I just want somebody to fix goddamn health care...right fucking now! Mr. President?
Seven senators have formed a bipartisan group to find consensus on health-care reform legislation, a sign of fresh momentum after a week of setbacks.

The group, dubbed by its members as the "Coalition of the Willing," includes Finance Chairman Max Baucus (D-Mont.) and the ranking Republican on the panel, Sen. Charles Grassley (Iowa). Others who attended the first meeting this afternoon in the Capitol included Sen. Jeff Bingaman (D-N.M.), Senate Budget Chairman Kent Conrad (D-N.D.), and GOP Sens. Orrin Hatch (Utah), Olympia Snowe (Maine), and Mike Enzi (R-Wyo.), the ranking minority member of the Senate health committee.
Atrios nails it when he reminds us what happened with the last "Coalition of the Willing."
