Subject: RE: BS: The Bailout
The purpose of that vote was not the passage of the bill itself, but to agree on the language of the bill, as I have repeatedly said. They were not voting on the merits of the bill. They were voting on how the bill would be worded. The merits of the bill were voted on in May when the Democrats voted against the passage of the bill. This is what I have been saying repeatedly.
