As far as I know, from reading the Constitution, isn't this unconstitutional to begin with, for the Senate to write and pass this bill? These matters are for the House to address aren't they?

Plus I keep hearing Senators Obama and McCain both spoke, but that isn't true. Obama droned on and on and on, and the left McCain NOT speaking at all. Not that he wouldn't vote for it, but he wasn't allowed to speak.

This is some creepy communist crap going on here.

Oh, didn’t you know? The senate took a bill that originated in the house, gutted it, voided all its contents, then rewrote it! That way, the bill originated in the house!

Never underestimate the ability of 100 lawyers to circumvent the constitution.

This was just a message/bribe from the Senate to the House.

Funny you should mention that.

Feinstein's husband Richard Blum has made BILLIONS dealing with China with the help of his wife's legislation.

Been going on for over a decade.

Corrupt, bad to the bone.
