Reply #4: Obama During the bankruptcy debate, he helped vote down a Democratic amendment [View All]

[indimuse]

Obama also voted for a bill to limit citizens rights to seek legal redress against abusive corporations. During the bankruptcy debate, he helped vote down a Democratic amendment to cap the abusive interest rates credit card companies could charge. And now, Obama cast a key procedural vote in support of President Bush's right-wing judges.
