If that makes you mad, you shoulda seen how many votes John Kerry has missed.. ed:
for that matter, any congressmen, they are all lazy as hell. We pay them a bunch and all they do is skip votes and work on their own re-election instead of passing legislation. And I've heard that most legislation passed in the US Congress is about naming streets, parks, etc..

There must be other reasons behind the decisions that he's made that you listed like he agreed with the bill but didn't want to pass it because he thought it could be redone better or in a way to make it cheaper?
