The Domestic For 6/24/10: The Difference Bewteen A Sane Home And An Asylum

The House just a few hours ago passed the Disclose Act, the long awaited act to virtually try and almost cover up the unbelievable, intentional mess of the John Roberts lobbyist controlled Supreme Court and their infamous Citizens United vs FEC decision.

Now of course with the House, it can never be as 100% liberal despite a large majority in the House, because of some Democrats just wanting to be Republicans any chance they get, as well as progressives not fighting tooth and nail for carve outs to the NRA (the nice little exemptions for them in this bill) like what seems to always happen.

Pelosi was happy about it nevertheless of course.

Now all of these nice feelings about this bill passing is all eviscerated however, because of the wonderful place it will leave "The House" to travel to.

You know what place that is? Oh, you do?

The House of Lords, with it's 100 Lord wannabes given archaic powers to hold the nation at hostage.

That latest example of their blatant mischievous ways (well, all the Republicans and Benny Nelson) is how for the third time in as many weeks , they are blocking the latest unemployment benefits.

Benny Ben made sure to block that with his fellow SOP nutcase friends despite being the one who wanted to give his state that beloved Cornhusker Kickback.

Thankfully there are some like David Dayen, who can't get excited about the DISCLOSE Act passing in the House, preventing a feeling of sadness and anger when the inevitable will occur :
It now moves to the Senate, which makes me wonder why I’m reporting on any of this.
Thank you House of Lords once again.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, for Annie Lowery's tweet:
And thank you for not giving a damn about your fellow citizens.

At least Debbie Stabenow said what she said.
