9. Republicans proving they are a bunch of cowards and hypocrites

If they truly approved of the bill, they wouldn't have required the discharge petition. Now that they know it will pass, they are all afraid to vote how they really feel. They are all voting yes, but we know they don't believe in what they are voting for. Anyone who watched any of the debate before the vote will know every single Republican who spoke about it trashed the bill. Yet now they're voting for it and we're supposed to believe they're being honest? Get Real! They are proving their cowardice and hypocrisy in real time.
