Do the Phones Not Work On Capitol Hill? By: Mark W Adams

I can't really bear to click through this mess of contradictory link-salad on Memeorandum.  Anyone who cares about the ongoing squabbles between Leader Reid and Speaker Pelosi on who's going to take the next first step on health care -- or if you give a tinker's damn about my sanity, please console me this isn't a game of "After you." "No, no, no. After you." "Oh, I insist, Ladies first." "Who you calling a lady you old coot?"

* Carrie Budoff Brown / The Politico:Reid: Senate can't pass reconciliation first, decision hopefully by next week  —  Emerging from a meeting Tuesday with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said he hopes Democrats can decide by next week on a way to move the health care bill forward.
