Banker's Budget Passes Senate

"You can take that to the bank!"
--Senator Vernon Trent (Hard to Kill)

The banker friendly federal budget bill jammed thru the House a couple nights back also passed the Senate on, yep, a Saturday night. Vote was 56-40. Interesting mix of no votes from both sides of the aisle, including a straight down vote by Tea Party types.

Now it is on to the president, who has been a BBBF (big banker's best friend) during his time in office.
