The two Senators voting no? Republicans David Vitter, the hooker-loving fascist from Louisiana, and Jim DeMint of South Carolina.
Said DeMint:
We have to have a remnant of the Republican Party who are recognizable as freedom fighters. What I'm looking to do as a conservative leader in the Senate is to identify those Republicans, and even some Democrats, and put together a consensus of people who can help stop this slide toward socialism.Because...you know...that argument went SO well for the Republicans last November.
