CORRECTION:

DEMOCRATS VOTED ALONG PARTY LINES TO DENY A REPUBLICAN AMENDMENT THAT FORCES THE FULL BILL TO BE POSTED ONLINE FOR PUBLIC REVIEW.


There, that should fix your title for those that don't bother to read the link.

I think there should be an argument. You needed to say Democrat leaders since the Republican leaders aren't siding with them about what is going on these days.

We all know that they aren't about to give three days notification even to their own members. Obama promised 5 days in the campaign and they won't even allow 3. Cheap chit I call that.

Allow Me To Translate

Democrats didn't fall for the GOP trick to delay voting on the Healthcare by weeks on end.

The GOP being the hypocrites that they are they never posted bills online when they were in control.


Whine and cry all you like.
