No, my post was about another vote the House took earlier on a bipartisan bill. After that vote, the House later voted on Obama's proposals and that is what the OP was about.

I added my post because the bipartisan bill was apparently modeled on the suggestions from Obama's bipartisan budget commission and I found it interesting that neither Dems nor Repubs showed any support for a bill which would truly reduce the deficit, and do it in a bipartisian manner.

Bernie Sanders...

Sanders is a self-described democratic socialist,[1][2] and has praised European social democracy (though he has also criticized its contemporary "Third Way" departure). He is the first person elected to the U.S. Senate to identify as a socialist.[3] [/b] Sanders caucuses with the Democratic Party and is counted as a Democrat for the purposes of committee assignments, but because he does not belong to a formal political party, he appears as an independent on the ballot. He was also the only independent member of the House during much of his service there.

And I've been questioned on 285 Bound when I identify Lady Jazzer as a full-fledged socialist? Look at her endorsement. I'm a conservative and I'm proud of that label. Lady Jazzer is a socialist... and she should be proud too! Now you all know ideologically where she is coming from. Bingo... we've nailed another socialist.

Health care bill sound like a similar senario? You stepped right in that one rofllol

The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.

I didn't step in it. I used the health care quote to make a point. Apparently, I have to connect the dots for some people since it was lost on them. That sort of idiotic talk comes from both sides.

So you agree that voting on anything before reading it is moronic and irresponsible?

Yes, I do. Same goes for signing a contract before reading it.
