But... But I Thought That It Was The Republicans Who Hate Poor People...

Sen. Tom Coburn (R-OK) submitted a proposal to allow car dealers to use the vehicles they obtained under the "Cash for Clunkers" program as donations to charities or needy families. The vote fell mostly along party lines, with four Democrats (Carper [DE], Dorgan [ND], Nelson [NE], and Webb [VA]) voting yes, and three Republicans (Collins [ME], Snowe [ME], and Voinovich [OH]) and one independent (Sanders [VT]) voting no.

Proving, once again, that it's not really the Democrats who have the best interests of "the little guy" at heart.
