On to the Minority Leader and the Speaker of the House

10:04 PM
All of the official time for debate has expired, save for the 1 ceremonial minute reserved on each side for the Minority Leader and the Speaker of the House. Of course this 1 minute isn't really a minute, both are essentially afforded unlimited time to make their remarks, not by rule, but by tradition of the House. Minority Leader Boehner has just begun his remarks. Speaker Pelosi with follow. Then, after over a year of debate in the Obama Presidency (and decades of debate prior), the House will vote on the plan.
