Ok, just for shits and giggles I picked out the "Stop the War on Coal Act". Because I am a proponent of hydrocarbons and fossil fuels.

Firstly, without reading the Full Bill Text there's no clue as to what exactly is in this Act.

Secondly, there's no clue as to what riders and amendments have been attached to these. That can seriously affect the vote.

Thirdly, when I clicked on "Full Bill Text", I got this...

Due to equipment maintenance, our websites
(including loc.gov, congress.gov, copyright.gov & others) are unavailable.
We expect them to be available again by the evening of Sunday, August 30.


A similar list could be compiled showing Democrats' total reluctance to move forward something as simple as, say, voter ID. :slap:

Voter id? Oh please, voter id is stupid shit, voter fraud is a virtually non-existent problem, if anything, we need automatic voter registration like most countries. Yeah, republicans don't really know about their own proposal, do they?

Excellent, then Dems won't lose any votes if we implement voter ID.
Makes you wonder why they whine so much about it though.

The big difference is the Republicans only vote once and don't use cemetary rosters. But then there's this:

Your OP contains a plethora of "stupid shit" Acts. That's why Republicans vote against them.

Case in point- there is in fact a "War on Coal" and it's real and it will result in skyrocketing utility rates for all Americans, including the poor and minorities. It will crash the electricity grid and result in brown-outs and black-outs.

"But is voter fraud really a problem? The Justice Department, under President George W. Bush, conducted a five-year effort to find and prosecute improper voting—and turned up virtually no evidence of any organized effort to affect federal elections. A separate report by the Brennan Center found that the type of voter fraud that these voter ID laws would address is “more rare than death by lightning,” while The Washington Post called the laws a “response to no known problem.” The Minnesota ACLU went so far as to offer a $1,000 reward for any example of voter impersonation in the state in the last decade. At press time, there were no takers. - See more at: Are Voter-ID Laws Racist?"
Illegals and the dead can't vote. LOL.

Our data comes from the Cooperative Congressional Election Study (CCES). Its large number of observations (32,800 in 2008 and 55,400 in 2010) provide sufficient samples of the non-immigrant sub-population, with 339 non-citizen respondents in 2008 and 489 in 2010. For the 2008 CCES, we also attempted to match respondents to voter files so that we could verify whether they actually voted. How many non-citizens participate in U.S. elections? More than 14 percent of non-citizens in both the 2008 and 2010 samples indicated that they were registered to vote. Furthermore, some of these non-citizens voted. Our best guess, based upon extrapolations from the portion of the sample with a verified vote, is that 6.4 percent of non-citizens voted in 2008 and 2.2 percent of non-citizens voted in 2010.

"with 339 non-citizen respondents in 2008 and 489 in 2010"
Yeah, good luck getting me to believe that crap.

Twelve thousand noncitizens registered to vote in Colorado; apparently 5,000 of those voted in 2010. A recent report in North Carolina by James O'Keefe's Project Veritas (of ACORN-undercover expose` fame) compared records of registered voters to prospective jurors disqualified due to noncitizenship, but who then voted in North Carolina in 2010. The State of Florida is suing the Department of Homeland Security to obtain a list of noncitizens in order to purge the state's voter rolls before the 2012 election, and was just sued in return by the Barack Obama-Eric Holder Department of Justice with a lawsuit for purging its rolls, which is required by federal law.

Our data comes from the Cooperative Congressional Election Study (CCES). Its large number of observations (32,800 in 2008 and 55,400 in 2010) provide sufficient samples of the non-immigrant sub-population, with 339 non-citizen respondents in 2008 and 489 in 2010. For the 2008 CCES, we also attempted to match respondents to voter files so that we could verify whether they actually voted. How many non-citizens participate in U.S. elections? More than 14 percent of non-citizens in both the 2008 and 2010 samples indicated that they were registered to vote. Furthermore, some of these non-citizens voted. Our best guess, based upon extrapolations from the portion of the sample with a verified vote, is that 6.4 percent of non-citizens voted in 2008 and 2.2 percent of non-citizens voted in 2010.

"with 339 non-citizen respondents in 2008 and 489 in 2010"
Yeah, good luck getting me to believe that crap.

Twelve thousand noncitizens registered to vote in Colorado; apparently 5,000 of those voted in 2010. A recent report in North Carolina by James O'Keefe's Project Veritas (of ACORN-undercover expose` fame) compared records of registered voters to prospective jurors disqualified due to noncitizenship, but who then voted in North Carolina in 2010. The State of Florida is suing the Department of Homeland Security to obtain a list of noncitizens in order to purge the state's voter rolls before the 2012 election, and was just sued in return by the Barack Obama-Eric Holder Department of Justice with a lawsuit for purging its rolls, which is required by federal law.


Voter Fraud Deniers Ignore the Facts - US News
5,000 people who were noncitizens voted in one state, err, ok?
Let's look at the reality instead of fear mongering over a tiny amount.
Why Voter ID Laws Aren’t Really about Fraud – Government / Elections / Politics - FRONTLINE
 
'Voter ID' laws, another example of republican advocacy of more government, less individual liberty; a moronic 'solution' in search of a problem that doesn't exist.

'Voter ID' laws, another example of republican advocacy of more government

Yeah, the added burden of showing an ID that you already need for so many things already.
It's like another gulag. Moron.
