BUT do we know if this was known by all our Congress who passed this bill?

IIRC many of the Repbulican Senators who were against the START treaty were against it because they were not allowed to see all the background documents that led up to it. Perhaps giving away military secrets was in that hidden information.

You know, the Dem way of passing a bill so you can find out what's in the bill. /s

I remember when the Republicans lost the house, but had the Senate and White House in 2006, they just started their vacations right after the elections. Dems stayed and passed all kinds of horrible stuff.

In 2006, “Dems stayed and passed all kinds of horrible stuff.” So did Bush veto the horrible stuff or not???

I should have been more clear. In 2006 lame duck Republicans went home early. In 2010, lame duck Dems stayed in Washington after the election passing all kinds of horrible stuff while they still had both houses and the Presidency.
