Democrats objected to provisions they said will allow the Bush administration to threaten the overtime pay of millions of workers; Hope the GOP isn't counting on the votes of the people they just screwed out of overtime pay. BTW, this is how the extension of the assault weapons ban will get passed and signed into law this year.

Tom Delay and Roy Blunt have promised to let AW Ban "sunset." We'll know for sure, come September...

Do you even understand the overtime bill?
Read the Live Thread on the Senate from today if you don't.

Hope the GOP isn't counting on the votes of the people they just screwed out of overtime pay. IIRC, I think they get the option of comp time or overtime. Before they had no option.
