#2 No they aren't. Susan Collins got to look tough for her constituents. They had to know they didn't have the votes to pass it. It seems a fairly clever, though devious, plan to me. Now when she casts her vote on an issue that will screw the entire nation, she will point to this bill and say, see how tough I am? I was here for ya.

#4 I repeat, they're cutting own throats by letting Presidency take away their powers.

#5 Not an issue for a Democratic Congress with this president g(r)omgoru. Look to Massachusetts to see how they'll respond when conditions change.
