What kind of idiot thinks it's a good idea to put food in the gas tank, AND use taxPAYer dollars to do it?

I’m thinking maybe the bill had that one good thing but a bunch of bad stuff. Kind of like including social issues with a Defense funding bill.

I don’t think the Republicans stopped the bill because of the ethanol.

They never intended for the bill to get out of the senate, it was all for show and tell.

Color me confused....

A week or so ago there were three threads on FR saying the Senate voted 73-27 to end Ethanol subsidies.

Now we’re told they killed it this bill? How can this be? Isn’t a vote on a bill in the Senate final?
