#1 "I really hate this agreement." Sounds like you don't belong in Congress, son! I remember reading here a few months ago about the guy who got elected and thought he'd be in charge and was crushed to discover he had to cooperate. Oh, the horror!

Then the Democrats proudly announce they stuffed some garbage into the bill, intended to protect Americans, that would not stand on its own merit.

But they bought some more votes.
