I believe it was actually 160 Republican amendments that were accepted into the bill... and not only did no Republicans end up voting for it afterwards, but at one point the Republicans actually tried to block their OWN amendments from being accepted by the Dems just to cause more obstruction.

This has been nothing but a bunch of games and sour grapes from the right side of the aisle.
It's sad that Republicans would choose to do everything in their power to make Obama and the Dems fail no matter what it does to America just so they can regain their power in Washington.

The Dems are far too willing to work with the Repubs, (R.I.P. Public Option) but the right has no interest in compromise.
It's either everyone plays by all of their rules alone or they're going to pop the ball so that nobody can play.
