This has to be the shittiest US Congress in the history of the country. The crap they have done this year is unbelievable. I guess the first responders aren't rich enough to buy them off so who cares about those guys while they rim the assholes of Goldman Sachs and BP for donations.

Watch the lame duck congress pass cap and trade in November or December and the ones who get booted take lucrative jobs for energy corporations as directors and consultants. The corruption is complete.

I still don't get the Democrat position.

They were 'embarrassed' by parts of their own bill?

Have these people no balls whatsoever?

Is the argument that if I had been living without a visa in NYC at that time and had heroically jumped in to help others damaging myself in the process, that someone who would otherwise have voted for them would choose not to if they found out I had got compensation?

That's completely fucked up on a number of levels.

What's their slogan going to be at the elections 'Vote for the fucking idiots not the evil bastards'?

How about voting ONLY for Democrats like Anthony Weiner, Alan Grayson, Dennis Kucinich, Russ Feingold, or Howard Dean, and not these corrupt Gold Mansacks blowing frauds? Or for Republicans like...... uh...... well...... when I come up with a Republican who is not corrupt or batshit crazy, I'll name one.

You don't agree with what Congressman Weiner said?

So you think the first responders who got lungs full of asbestos while attempting to save lives during the "worst terraist attack on American soil" should be hung out to dry. Or die, as the case may be?

Basically, because he's a Democratic member of Congress with any kind of backbone....

He was performing for the cameras and is trying to get reelected. Nothing else.

Of course, why didn't I think of that ??

On second thought, don't answer that... ;)
