Heard on CSPAN about the recently approved campaign finance
reform bill, that the repugs wrote the bill in committee and knew it was unconstitutional but voted to pass it b/c as one repug wrote in a memo "there is no way a conservative s.c. will ever approve it." They passed it thinking it would go down in the supreme court. Ha! It passed 5-4 and one of their own, Sandra Day O'Conner, casts the deciding vote for the majority. You have to smile on that one!!
