Aren’t these bills supposed to originate in the house? Oh, I’m sorry. Stupid question. The house is irrelevant and boner is fine with it.
This particular bill is not meant to be signed into law.
The purpose of this bill is to put Senate Republicans who are in blue or purple states in hot water with their state voters, or possibly their primary voters, put them on defensive to give Dems an edge in 2014.
Reid, Obama and the rest at MSNBC been plotting this all though the break.
Make GOP Senators vote on stuff that polls popular that Dems like, and conservatives dont, give-aways.
just political.
