The problem is the Dems will take a worthy bill and load a bunch of nosense in it, and the repuks are doing the right thing. I think its funny the dems control EVERY branch, not able to get all their folks to agree, they blame it on the repuks. They all need to get voted out if they do not stand there ground against more spending! They need to quit loading these bills with pork trying to pull the wool over peoples eyes and they would get some cooperation. The goverment is in real trouble....people are paying attention and this good ole boy shit is not going to pass as representation any more.
there is no nonesense in that bill.
the only "nonesense" is closing a tax loophole for foreign companies operating within the United states. most tax experts agree that closing this loophole will not cause companies to leave the united states market in swarms, like repukes would like for you to believe. it will also help the never-ending drug war, because this tax-loophole is also used by large drug cartels use this loophole to funnel drug money.
repukes voted no not because the bill was 'flawed' but because obstructing the normal legislative process needed for the country to move forward has become part of their platform. they vote things like this down, while parading the likes of Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck in front of cameras, experts at spinning the truth, persuading, and fear-mongering.... their base probably don't even know that it's the repukes fault this didn't pass.
did you guys see Fox News after the bill didn't pass?? there was no outrage, unlike when financial reform, or health care reform passed, when my tv almost flew off the table.....
The only criticism i saw on FNC was the footage jon stewart showed, where the "Fox News Contributor" who was brought in as an expert to discuss how it failed to pass, admitted she didn't read the bill, she doesn't know the particulars, and she doesn't know why the guy was screaming and it was "Such a turn-off.."
repukes are disgusting. they only care about big business....
