Many, like me, would like to see some more regulation on the whole thing but don't want the government too heavily involved in it. I don't see them even acting like they will regulate Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. Why is that?
That also Why arent they in there? Democrats still protecting them

Ah you want more regulation....just not government regulation!
Sounds like a "real world" "common sense" solution......LOL
I vote like that because there is hope that they won't go for more government control with laws like the one being proposed and I know the Democrats will vote just that way.
What do you not like about the bill, and why should it not even be debated?
Yet again, they're voting against this specific bill, not the idea of reform, but the strawman presents himself again. It is possible to want reform and think that a particular bill is not the best way to do it. The goal should not be to simply pass something, it should be to pass good reform. Why should we assume that the first shot at reform is always the best?
Yep.
And lets not forget that the bills' author is none other than Chris Dodd, who's had Big Financial in his back pocket for decades. Further, Dodd is retiring. He has absolutely no vested interest whatsoever in this bill. Republican's are right for not kowtowing to a Senator who is corrupt beyond corrupt, all in the name of financial reform. It should be reformed above-board and after Dodd is long gone.

You want regulation for fannie and freddie? But you just voted twice for a president who deregulated them 40 times in eight years.
What does this have to do with "the middle class"? It has nothing to do with the "middle class".
This massive so-called reform bill is just another power grab by the Obama administration. It deserves to be defeted, like everything else this "regime" is pulling on the American citizenry. This gives way too much power to the Fed over private businesses.
Nothing this administration does is out in the open, and this is another example.
What will we find hidden in ths bill after it's passed?
Sometimes, less is more.
