LAZY BASTARDS!!!
Edited on Fri Jan-22-10 10:31 AM by kpete
Don't forget to blame the Senate

“The Senate moderates’ viewpoint is,
‘We passed our bill. We’re not going to spend three weeks on some other bill,’”
said a Democratic lobbyist who represents clients pushing for reform.

"We're not going to spend three weeks on some other bill."
Oy. And keep in mind that, like the Senate, the House has passed its bill as well. What was supposed to be happening right now is a package of compromise amendments that both the House and the Senate would pass.

1. Hey, it's hard to go to all those parties and fundraisers and still find time to play golf, if
you have to actually DO something for your paycheck. :puke:

2. But, they'll squeeze in time to vote themselves a raise.
