But I guess it was less expensive to buy passage of this bill than to act responsibly.

Yes, the credit card industry paid a few million and got perhaps $1 billion in profits in return, without having to change their predatory behavior one iota.

And I am so glad the Congress rushed to take care of this CRITICAL issue...border security, tort reform and ANWR are not nearly as important. The FBI Director is saying terrorists are coming across the border? Put it on hold...we have to reward our corporate donors. Doctors are leaving medicine and refusing to perform risky surgery because of John Edwards and his ilk raping them blind? Put it on hold, only a few kids will die because a less skillful surgeon performs their brain surgery...we've got to foreclose on a family who just lost their dad to cancer. Hooray!!!

Our government in inaction. Ain't it great?

Right on, Montag813. The Pubbies priorities are not only questionable, but they could fuel a comeback by the Dems if only they had a Clinton who was smart enough to exploit it.

Oh that's right, they do.

Boo to this lousy bill.
