Criminal Activity By The Senate? Or Just Politics As Usual?

[Obama 2012 1,714]

It's amusing really. They did this with the health care bill and now they are doing it with the tax bill...

Taking a "spending bill" of sorts that originated in the house and completely changing it's purpose/title to fit their needs in the senate.

All spending bill must originate in the house, therefore the senate must use borderline criminal activity to pass certain legislation...

I really think this needs to be put to a stop. I don't care which party is in power, this ####### simply shouldn't be allowed and they are abusing a clause in the constitution for their own agendas when obviously those bills were never intended to be used for said purposes....
