Im going by what some congressmen were QUOTED as saying. If you don't believe that number don't bash me.

If the leader of your party runs around saying "country first country first country first" then yeah, you should vote for this because it's for the good of the country.

You're assuming his is actually good for the country which is not a proven fact.

What ever happened to all of the "rather lose an election than lose a whatever" talk?

That was McCain. Doesn't mean anyone else believes that.

People only worried about their own necks come re-election time is how we got into the Iraq war and how the PATRIOT act passed.....both of which were NOT good for the country.
Today's vote is another in a long list of reasons that we need term limits in congress. If 1/3 of the people voting today weren't on a ballot in November this would have passed easily.

They tried to get term limits before and it failed. You also realize the term limits means people like Ron Paul who ALWAYS votes against pork spending would not be in office right now. There will never be term limits.
