This "discussion" version of the $700 billion BILL does not show the EARMARKS which were in this bill. Such as giving $20 million to a radical anti-American Group know as ACORN. ACHORN is a corrupt organization which is one of the corner stones of OBAMA's rise to fame. 35 of it 40 officers are under investigation for voter fraud. ACORN has used funding to disrupt government, industrial and banking business through out the USA. This is what OBAMA is about and on of the reasons why this bill failed.
