Okay, well, I’m dumb…but willing to learn. I recently made a post and comment and it was completely wrong. The House and Senate can both introduce bills. What the Senate passed last night is an amendment to a bill introduced by the House. The amendment contains the bailout.
Does this seem right to everyone?
And, yes, I was completely wrong about Obama and McCain not voting last Monday, because it was a House-introduced bill that was voted on in that instance. Had it passed, it would’ve then gone on to the Senate.
Guess that U.S. History class really paid off in high school, huh? Geesh.
