If true, then we must also consider who called the vote at such a stupid time.
The Speaker of the House called the vote. Actual leadership would have expected this dirty trick, especially when the GOP has done the exact same thing several times before.
yes, why cant our entire government operate at a time that accomodates aipac events. I mean, listen to yourself.
The vote was scheduled in advance. If congresspeople wanted to be there they would have been. Stop trying to pretend this was a scheduling issue instead of a corruption one.
Oh, I'm in agreement. It's absolutely a corruption issue. I'm saying that the dems in question are absolutely complicit, but so is the current house speaker for being a righteous dick for calling the vote in a manner that reeks of collusion.
