    I think it’s important to point out that this vote only failed because they basically pulled a guy out of a hospital bed to vote no

    The failure came about because of the surprise appearance in the chamber of Rep. Al Green (D-Texas), who showed up unexpectedly — having recently had surgery and wearing hospital scrubs and no socks, according to NBC — to vote against the bill.

    So not exactly a stunning rebuke of the wackos.
