Ah, a true statement from a lefty. Good job. Be careful you may just find you have a right leaning bone in your body.

Now, if what you said is true, then no one should have voted for the bill, thus making the Repubs even more in the right.

So, for all of you keeping score, this was a bad bill that deserved to die. However, media spin put such intense pressure on it that the DOW has died a fake death due to this bill's not passing. A good bill will now be brought up and Repubs and Dems can debate the finer points like civilized people, not like San Fran nan trying to get in a smarmy cheap shot right before the vote.

I'd say the rerpubs broke it off and shoved it down her throat. Maybe next time the san fran granny will learn to play nice.

What extra oversight do you think this bill needs to gain the support necessary to pass? Doing nothing is simply not a viable option. What other changes do you think should be in the bill?
