35. I wish King had pointed out to him that numerous Republican proposals were inserted into the bill
McCain whined that Republican proposals were voted down - that's because those particular proposals were too extreme to have been included in the original bill but a number of Republican proposals (mostly tax cuts) were ALREADY in the bill.

But that's fine. Next time, President Obama won't put ANY Republican proposal in the original legislation but wait until later to tack them on ONLY after Republicans agree to vote yes if he does so. Otherwise, they stay out.
