Hiding The Issue

Re: Buried language in the Stimulus Stimulation Monster Bill that relaxes restrictions associated with Cuba.

Bob Menendez Holds His Ground. Harry Reid Is One Vote Short. : NO QUARTER: "...No doubt, that Reid at some point will wrangle that last vote and everyone on the hill will have their pork and eat it too. He will even find a way to pacify Menendez. Yet, this little incident is just another reminder of why our government is broken to begin with. The Cuban issue is important enough to deserve its own debate on the floor. In typical congressional fashion, it was tacked on to a bill that had nothing to do with the issue. Whoever, added it to the omnibus spending bill was probably figuring that Menendez and his staff would not actually read the whole thing until it was too late..."

For some reason my blogroll is rejecting your site-- "url not found error." I'll keep working on it.
