No, this isn’t a parody scene on The Office. Sen. Chris Dodd and the Democrats offered to accept without revision 65 amendments authored by Republican committee members. The Republican members didn’t want them accepted – they wanted votes. Why? Pretty much just to run out the clock.
And the kick in the pants is after scores of non-preposterous Republican amendments were accepted (check out some of the amusing ones here and here) were accepted, all the Republicans on the committee voted against the bill so they could loudly complain the process wasn’t “bipartisan.” Classy.[via]
3 minutes of comedy courtesy of confused Republicans
