Only if you are a Democrat

Can a bill be bi-partisan with no Republican support. If a Republican were to say this the media would go crazy over it.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Sunday that Republicans have left their mark on the healthcare bill and should accept that the bill will go forward.

"They've had plenty of opportunity to make their voices heard," she said on CNN's "State of the Union" Sunday morning. "Bipartisanship is a two-way street. A bill can be bipartisan without bipartisan votes. Republicans have left their imprint."

The public option, for example, has been stripped from the bill because Republicans were so adamantly against it, she said.

The problem here is, the Democrats know this bill is unpopular. They know it is going to fail and bankrupt the country. Even knowing all that they still want to push it through. But they don't want to take 100% blame for it. So they are trying to lie to the media and say because they have talked about the bill it is bi-partisan even though no Republicans support it or will vote for it.
