Unfortunately, it isn't just "all things Democratic."

85 Republican Congressmen voted for this illegal, unconstitutional populist feeding-frenzy of a bill, taxing retention bonuses at 90%.

The 85 include Eric Cantor, by the way -- the Republican House Whip, I believe.

Congress is out of control, and these Republicans are riding the wave to our destruction.

It was a political decision, and a wise one IMHO. It was going to pass no matter what, by adding votes from Republicans it kept the left from beating us with it later. I don't like it, but it was a prudent move that didn't affect the outcome at all.
