That’s the motion to proceed. Notice all the (D)s voted ‘Yea’ and all the (R)s voted ‘Nay’.

Isn’t this really the biggest news of the day. The media acts like it isn’t a big deal. Why?

Because Obama framed this vote as not important

WE need to MAKE this breaking news - IMPORTANT. Otherwise we have just played right into Obama’s hands. Acting like this isn’t important.

This should be the breaking news story of the week.

Democrats REJECT a balanced budget

Notice how lock step the (D)s are in raising taxes before an Election. Notice how unified they are against Balanced Budgets (or budgets of any kind except more Spending).

Wonder how this will do at the Polls.

Interesting way to campaign don't you think?

Indeed. The motion to proceed to TABLE.

They voted on this:
Question: On the Motion to Table (Motion to Table the Motion to Proceed to Consider H.R. 2560 )

The Senate voted to table CC&B. Fitting that a "yea" vote means no here. We're living in a bizzaro world.
