This is Robo-Interesting.

The Senate has spent a good deal of it's time over the past year or two bawling in front of cameras that they need to "debate!!" every single word of every single bill coming down the pike; bills have been routinely filibustered in the name of refusing cloture under the claim that it would not allow enough time for "debate." The name of the game has been gridlock - Obama can't get a deputy assistant in charge of mayonnaise voted on without the Senate refusing to move on it.

And yet this was not the case with the Robo-Foreclosure Bill, which is designed to make it difficult for foreclosure victims to challenge banks that may have improperly approved their foreclosure (presumably the same banks that arranged for some of these mortgages during the period Wall Street was monkeying around with everything a few years back, since which Wall Street is doing just fine now while you're trying to hold on to your house, fuck you very much) sailed though the Senate without anybody noticing. That seems fairly odd to me. What was the rush for with this one, of all bills?
