That does not explain 100 senators voting FOR it.


sure it does. it was passed on 12/15 late in the evening. a 262 page
addendum to an 11,000 page bill was not going to attract attention, as
gramm calculated.

Bull****, Why don't you go see the debate about adding that amendment.
In fact you said he threatened a filibuster, you can't have it both
ways. I think you are just quoting someone you heard on Olbermann.
This is a public record.


ROFLMAO!! how many people do you have to convince regarding a
filibuster? 1? 2? not many..


The language was not Gramms either. It came from a house bill H.R.5660
that was cosponsored by New York rep John LaFalce.


newsflash:

gramm was a senator. representatives dont get a vote in the senate.


Flash right back at you, this was a house bill that was amended to the
house bill HR4577 that was passed by the senate.


irrelevant. you said it was language in the house. the house does not
vote in the senate. house language is irrelevant
