Then why aren't they going to vote against it? They are giving the Republicans cough*lobbyists*cough everything they want and getting nothing in return. What part of my premise is flawed, that they are arguing about how much of a giveaway it is?
This.
I don't care what anyone SAYS. I care about what they DO. Rhetoric vs. action. I also recall the very same criticism being applied repeatedly in this forum about a Senator from Vermont.
I have no problem with some moderates voting with the opposition party; that's how compromise is supposed to work in this country. What's troubling is that Congress rushed to help out banks, who as far as I can tell are not hurting, and for what? Because it was Tuesday and they nothing better to do regarding gun laws, immigration, or pretty much ANYTHING else this week?
