So these house representatives were free to argue their position up until a point. In the end some said they would run this country over the cliff and vote no, rather than vote yes to avoid a disaster. And that's pretty much unforgivable to me. So it's on to the Senate where it is likely to pass, but we will hear from some more idiots again.
Unsurprisingly, my Rep voted no. He wouldn't have my vote, anyway, but whatever.
