Farm Bill Gaffe

They keep telling us they know what they are doing, huh!

After printing gaffe, Democrats planning to redo $290 billion farm bill
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Democrats are picking up the pieces after an embarrassing technical gaffe that delayed a triumphant rejection of President Bush's veto of a massive farm bill.
Members from both parties hoped to bring the $290 billion bill, which includes election-year subsidies for farmers and food stamps for the poor, back to their districts over Memorial Day. But that is looking less likely now that the legislation will have to be passed all over again due to a printing error.
