Obama Condemns Bill His Own Advisors Wrote

[tocco05]

Listen, there's no doubt that Dems were complicit in this and allowed the Republicans to get them to do this. It passed, so that's obvious. That said, Obama wasn't around so ya can't blame him for this one. McCain was around.

Keep spinning. Biden voted in favor of the bill. Open your eyes!!!!!!!:lol:

Lots of people blew it when it came to that bill, on both sides of the aisle. At least Obama recognizes it. Does McCain? What's his position?

The Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999 (Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act) was initially submitted in the House and in the Senate in different forms. Each of the two bills passed in its own house, but then the bills went to conference committee so that the differences between them could be ironed out. Once the differences were resolved, the now-uniform legislation returned to the House and to the Senate for the final vote. Only after the FINAL FORM of the legislation passed both houses was the bill sent to Clinton, who signed it into law in mid-November, 1999.

Here is a detailed history, which gives you the dates -

I stated that John McCain did NOT vote to make this terrible bill into law, and he DID NOT.

I said Biden voted FOR the bill, and he did.

You replied, erroneously, that it was McCain who actually voted for the legislation that became law, and that it was Biden who voted against it. This is 100% WRONG. Here is the proof.

One needs to be careful to get history right.

McCain "no vote". He didn't even show up.

Wow, does a president get to have a "no vote"? Can we start calling McCain "Senator No Vote"?

Once again you are proven to be wrong. Just like you will be proved wrong on election day. Now run along and play after getting schooled on this argument!!!:aktion033

The Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999 (Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act) was initially submitted in the House and in the Senate in different forms. Each of the two bills passed in its own house, but then the bills went to conference committee so that the differences between them could be ironed out. Once the differences were resolved, the now-uniform legislation returned to the House and to the Senate for the final vote. Only after the FINAL FORM of the legislation passed both houses was the bill sent to Clinton, who signed it into law in mid-November, 1999.

McCain voted in favor of the original S. 900. He just apparently couldn't be bothered to show up for the final vote. He couldn't even bother to vote present. Senator "No Vote" McCain.

Like I said. Run along and play. You were schooled in this argument. :aktion033

McCain was too busy running for the office that he thinks he was destined for in November of 1999 to vote on a bill that every single other member of the senate felt it was worth voting on.

Nice leadership there.

d2bets, i gave tocco a standing 10 count. ding ding ding d2 is the winner.

All of your spinning couldn't change the facts in this one. The Republicans were behind Gramm-Leach-Bliley and all your contorting, twisting and spinning can't change the facts and can't seem to give McCain an actual opinion on this. Apparently he is still a "No Vote" on this one. Senator "No Vote" McCain can't take a position.

Tocco recovers and KO’s D2. The winner and still undisputed heavy weight champion of the Rx. “Tocco the shepherd” :Carcajada:

You are the one who tried to change the facts. I really don't think you want to go into the topic of voting present or not voting. I will save you the embarssment D2. You were embarassed enough for today. Now run along and play.%^_%^_

The FACT is that the vote that you point to was a vote on a CONFERENCE REPORT, not the actual bill. The vote I referenced was a vote on the ACTUAL BILL. The ACTUAL BILL passed on May 6 by a 55-44 vote along party lines. The Nov. 4 action was not a vote on the bill, but rather was a vote on a conference report.

Vote Number:	Senate Vote #354 in 1999 [primary source]
Date:	Nov 4, 1999 3:30PM
Result:	Conference Report Agreed to
Related Bill:	S. 900 [106th]: Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act
I don't expect you to recognize facts. I expect you to keep spinning. So now go prove me right...

I was originally going to call you a “sheep herder” but that was before I found out they were an endangered species. :missingte
