nominee? i always wondered in the terms of the strategy of the white house they call a 1:30 news conference and 1:42. and they allow us to deliver a message that the president doesn t want to put out. if i were running for the white house, but i would have him speak at 1:30 and get the comment attors off of the air. and sitting there watching chris. and there are splits in both parties. you saw that with elizabeth warren and the democrats when they talked about some of the policy riders that were add to make it easier for the banks to put out investments in derivatives.
aparentally, they are in there now. that was the old policy riders. all right. another senator flouted the convention by saying something about the cromnibus that was shockingly reasonable. if wall street banks want to gamble with their own money, so be it. let them take their risks with their own money and let them live with the consequences of those risks. that s how markts are supposed to work. but they shoultn t get to gamble with government-insured money. it is because of governments like that that they will be spending a million dollars just to try to get senator elizabeth warren to run for president in 2016. and that s next. during the day, we generate as much electricity as we can using solar. at night and when it s cloudy, we use more natural gas. this ensures we can produce clean electricity
because there s the inacceptabilityiincentive is there to give more money to the donors. john mccain can talk all a he wants about it, but i wonder how he s going to vote? right i i think he probably be e will vote for it. there s also some interesting nutritional provisions 234 there. there was a white potato. i guess white potatoes were taken out of approved food for in wic, which is for wait a minute, women, infants and children. that s back in. that s back in. certain grains are now back in and can be used. it s just an kmampl. even if you took out the derivatives piece of this bill, this would still be a pretty terrible product. and i m so old that i remember that president obama and members of the dem kratzs and the senate saying that we don t want any policy riders in these bills.
breaking news, if you re just doing the math, it passed. avoiding what could have been a government shutdown inless than three hours had congress been unable to pass a spending bill by midnight tonight, the house republicans added a whole bunch of policy riders. the house shutdown at 2:00 this afternoon when they thought they could not get this thing passed. they reopened and started voting on the bill. they came back into session shortly after 9:00 p.m. tonight. speaker john boehner working the floor, trying to persuade both democrats and republicans to vote for the bill. the white house, including cabinet secondaries and vice president biden and president obama whipping this vote, trying to get democrats to vote for this tonight. and just a few minutes ago, the bill has now officially passed the house. 219 to 206.
within those there s a number of policy riders that were voted on-done as amendments. we re all waiting with baited breath for ice evening when we see the publication of the bill itself. the poll so i riders we work on for the last year, will they be intact in this legislation? here s what i don t know. you know the process better. why can t you recognize reality that you re going to have a whole new senate. why not do something temporary to get you maybe for the next couple of months, let the new senate, the new house, tackle these issues with the president, in an orderly way, rather than cede that will change or fix and etch in stone a put that will be almost=x> entirely likely to democrats liking. you re hitting one of the key arguments we re having right now. too you just move forward with a
