AP headline: House passes Medicare drug bill

The best part of the whole story is…

“The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office said the legislation was unlikely to result in savings to taxpayers.” (emphasis added)

The President has stated that if this bill reaches his desk he will veto it. The democratic response is:

"The president and his Republican allies have argued that this bill would do nothing. Then why, I must ask, would he bother to veto it?" said Dingell, chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee.

Let me answer that Mr. Dingell…because legislation for legislations sake is not doing the work of the people. It really is you being selfish and trying to get more press time than you otherwise deserve.
