Well, alcohol DOES destroy brain cells- and it's not like Teddy had any to spare!

I thought it was his sister, not Ted, that had the lobotomy?

Nah, in the House and Senate you can change your vote back and forth until they cut off voting.

This allows several things:

First, the party leaders can twist arms if they find they need a few more votes to get a bill passed or killed.

Second, it allows the legislators to vote for political cover. If it looks like a bill will pass easily, but they need to be against it for their constituency, they can vote against it, knowing it will pass anyway.

Their rank and file are too dumb to use punchcards, and their big (very very big) cheeses can't even handle an oral aye or nay. We call em Dims for a reason.

"He mistakenly voted with President Bush in opposing a Democratic-backed amendment to require partial Iraqi repayment of U.S. reconstruction aid. On that occasion, Senate Democratic Leader Thomas Daschle conferred with Kennedy and prompted him to change his vote."

Tom (whisper): Uh... Ted? This is -our- bill. We're voting -not- to give the money to the Iraqis, and make it just a loan.

Ted: Huh? Wuzzat? Yer kiddin'. No, Tom, you've gotta be wrong. (hic) For 30 yeahs we been sendin' free money to every Communist dictatah in the world. That's the plan. Get with the program, Tommy boy.

Tom: Uh, Ted... Bush deposed Saddam 6 months ago. Iraq isn't Communist anymore.

Ted: Oh! Oh yeah, that's right. (hic) Sorry bout that, Tommy. Right! No money to Iraq! Pahdon me *ahem*. (hic)
