All 543 Amendments to the infamous 'Max Baucus' health care reform bill were put online earlier today. If you are so inclined, you can read it all here. If not, the wonderful folks from Think Progress' Wonk Room tweeted them earlier today. I decided to organize them a bit. I present to you the best, the bad, the stupid & the strange of the Baucus Amendments, thus far.

It is important to note who exactly is working for REAL health care reform and who isn't. The names listed here are just as important as the names of senators that are nowhere to be seen on this issue. What you can see here is who the real obstructionists are. And -- special Props to Senator Grassley who doesn't seen to have a clue about his own government provided health insurance.
