House passes sweeping bank deregulation bill, but where's the outrage?

5. Well stated. All the way around.

I think some of us, including myself, have resigned to the fact some draconian legislation will pass the house. They have successfully voted on horrid legislation after horrid legislation over the last couple of years. Much of it has gone no further than the house. These house moves are one of the only things holding their base together, IMO.

I have seen the party and DU members use some of these pieces of legislation used as talking points. Highlighting how disgusting the Tea Party types are and the fact that rank and file Republicans seem more than happy to go along with them.

I do agree with the points you are making and believe I just gave you a failed justification for why a bigger stink isn't being made. I still think my justification is real and alive.
