    ...scumbags.

    EDIT: My mistake. This was actually just a vote to allow a vote on the Patriot Act extension that will only require a simple majority to pass. Fixed the title.

    It's now pretty much inevitable that the bill will pass.

    44 of 52 Tea Party caucus members voted for the extension.

    No, but only because it would violate his contract with Satan.
