What are you talking about? Are you saying that he should have voted no to the Boehner Bill, which didn’t pass anyway, and voted for this one? Really?

Griffith should have vote NO on both. He didn't. He was one of the weasels who was pushed to victory by the Southwest VA TEA Party over Boucher, and then caved to Boehner the other night.

Yep. The passage of the Boehner bill last week is what created the opportunity for this monstrosity. The idea last week was that Boehner sold a bill of goods that the House pass his bill and put the pressure on the Senate to act. Well, the Senate already said that bill would be tabled, and was literally right after the House vote. Then Boehner, Reid and Obama put the finishing touches on their crap sandwich over the weekend...putting all the pressure right back on the Republicans in House to HAVE to pass something on the final day. Last week, was the time to stand strong for either CCB or something else.
