I meant exactly what I wrote, Paul. They never came up with an alternative bill. Pushing an amendment at the 11th hour only to have it fail was just another symbolic gesture following months of obstructionism on their part.

That is absolutely false, and you know it, the amendment was in fact an entire alternative bill, that, in fact would have abrogated the entire Dem bill. That is why the proposed GOP amendment begins with Strike all after the enacting clause and insert the
following: It had to be offered as an amendment otherwise it would never have seen the light of day as an actual bill. Why because the GOP was for all practicle purpose denied input into the DEM bill. A technicality.

Why the complete and utter distortion on your part?
