Wow, suddenly you're really busy. You had plenty of time to fume about how wrong I was. You'd think that if, as you said, it happens all the time that it would be easy for you to find me a bill.
Sorry, not going to do your homework for you. If you don't know the difference in the two, I suggest you follow my advice and look them up. You shouldn't be ashamed for your ignorance of the subject.
100% correct, except we don't know if it would have passed. Reid could have done the same with the House bill.
Whatever makes you happy.
Feel free to wallow in your ignorance.
You're right. I wasted too much time on you. I have two reports to write before the end of the day. You'll get your answers when I have time.
False.
Please post a bill in the last Congress - one that’s not a non-controversial one like renaming a Post Office or whatever, or an emergency bill - that passed both chambers without amendments, or passed the second chamber without amendments after being passed over from the first.
I’ll wait.
Why would they do that? The Senate can’t have input on a bill? It should just vote up or down on every bill that comes from the House, and vice versa?
Moreover, now that the House has a Senate tax bill - why doesn’t it pass the Senate bill without amendments? Because the House went first?
I never said that.
It voted on the House bill, after amending it. Which is how it works with every major bill.
For some unexplained reason, Gill thinks that all 100 Senators should agree to give up their responsibility to craft legislation, and just act like automatons and vote on what is placed in front of them.
And I would suggest a writing class for you.
I also suggest you look up a tax holiday and a tax cut on Wiki. I'm sure it explains it clearly and you can see how a properly composed sentence can be written so that it makes sense.
A tax holiday is a temporary reduction or elimination of a tax.
Gill might actually go do his little search for a major bill that passed a chamber without amendment. He might even find one he thinks qualifies, and then I'll have to explain to him why he's wrong, and the bill actually was amended but through a process he doesn't understand (such as at the committee level only), and that will take another few days while he yells about "liberals" and then stomps off again and suddenly gets busy at work.

Drop it bro, its getting old.Still waiting, Gill.
And you seem to believe that all 435 Representatives should give up their responsibility to craft legislation, and just act like automatons and vote on whatever is placed in front of them.

You don't sound so cocky now.............
I have time to post a quick reply now and then today, but no time for the extensive research this requires. Maybe I'll time over the long Christmas weekend.
Thanks for the advice. I'll decide when to drop something.
I'm sorry internet tough guy. I'll shut up now because I feel threatened by your typing skills.:shock:Thanks for the advice. I'll decide when to drop something.
Dispute it then. What's your grand plan? The name of the website is "Debatepolitics" after all.what was even funnier was his following up that admonition by re-posting an inane argument which was no better the second time around
not to respond to inanityDispute it then. What's your grand plan?
excellent discovery, marineThe name of the website is "Debatepolitics" after all.

You're acting like an ass. Maybe you shouldn't try emulating your liberal buddies on here so closely.
I thought you were busy. But as I predicted, you're still spewing empty comments sprinkled with "liberals" while pretending to be too busy to find what you claimed exists, but doesn't.
