Was it slipped in AFTER the vote on the House floor? No? Well then all those
Democrats had a chance to vote "NO".


The thing is, the bill was read and debated AT THE CONFERENCE. The vote
is after they all allegedly know what's in the bill. But, alas, the
republicans in office now, being the slight-of-hand dirty pigs that
they are, on purpose, had this entire clause inserted afterwards. Do
you really think that the whole clause, which they worked on for
months, was just accidently left out, then someone thought, oh, hell,
we forgot this part... OR, do you think it was that they knew the bill
would have a much greater failure rate if they did everything above
board?


The bill was also debated on the House floor (live on C-Span!). Are you saying
the sneaky Republicans inserted this AFTER the debate and vote in the House? Or,
are you saying that none of the Democrats (or their innumerable staffers) who
voted FOR the bill read it? And, not one of the Democrats who voted against the
bill read it and told their buddies?

John Kerry, as much as I dislike the guy, made several mentions of things in the
bill that had been changed in conference. He (or one of his staffers) must have
read the bill.
