The Senate Bill is sure to be different which means a COnference committte, It will be returned to The hous and it willl get substantial GOP support. This is HOuse Leadership just trying to look relevant.

1. When a bill passes, although every single Repug voted against it....
It only illustrates how weak they are.
Done in locksteps proves that it was political.

3. Yes, but you can be sure it will be spinned by the M$M as a defeat for Obama.

(he was not bipartisan enough). They were already spinning that this morning. I hope there will be a lot of Dems to counter that, and some who can speak on TV (not Reid or Pelosi).

4. You are right.
Pure theater, and I agree with you, after the senate gets done and they send it back with some changes in it, there will be support on both sides. I think there was pork put in so that the senate could cut it out to appease the republicans. I think Obama knows what he is doing, and I like it!
