The Senate Bill which was to ban tax loopholes which benefitted |
|
companies who send jobs overseas just failed. According to Faux, the Republicans were able to block the passage of this Bill with the HELP of FOUR DEMOCRATS. This is just the sort of thing that hurts our Party.
For years we have been promised that the Senate would ban this practice. John Kerry had this as part of his platform.
What is so disspiriting is the fact that Democrats throw the Working Class under the bus. If made to choose between protecting the working class or the Corporation, they protect the corporation every time. Hurt their Party by making it appear weak in the process.
Have not been able to find out who the four traitoru are. Anyone know???
