Can't wait for the Paste Eaters to explain this one.

Did you read it??

All of this is, to some degree, Medicare kabuki to placate the American
Medical Association. The Senate doesn't have the votes to pass a
permanent fix without paying for it -- though, of course, it also
doesn't have the votes actually to pay for it. So while the House might
pass the unpaid-for fix, it will likely die there. The result will be
another year-long, or possible two-year, patch slapped on this mess.
Finding the money to pay for the fix and, more to the point, cobbling
together the political coalition to support it, is difficult. Which is
why Congress and the administration have joined hands in the pretense
that the doc fix has nothing whatsoever to do with health reform.
