6. Not for once, since Pelosi has taken over, it has happened several times |
|
that is why I was so pissed when people were calling for her to Resign. She is the first leader to get Dems to vote 100% against anything in a long time.

17. It already has passed the Senate |
|
But Robert Byrd used some arcane rule to make it go back again to the house. The preznit will sign it and it'll be law.

I am proud of her ... BUT a 216 to 214 vote reeks of horse-trading. That's just enough to let the bill pass and also let all the Dems. and a few Repukes save face with their constituents. What did saving face cost us, I wonder?

14. CAFTA passed the same way |
|
although I think 5 Dems voted for CAFTA
Then there was another one that passed the same way, but I think the senate filibustered that one (the defense bill I think)
