80 votes?

Reader Annita writes:

You know, Chuck Grassley and company are making the case that heath care reform is such an important issue that it really won’t be a worthwhile bill if it can’t get at least 80 senators to vote for it. As I recall, the “Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002” passed in the Senate by a vote of 77 to 23. I’d say going to war was a rather weighty, important decision. Gee, I wish we’d known back in October of 2002 that we should really be requiring an 80 to 20 vote!

How can anybody with the intelligence of a six year old actually still believe the republicans are actually still interested in health care reform?
