HR 5175 Passes House

Yesterday, the House of Representatives passed HR 5175, the DISCLOSE Act, by a vote of 219 to 206 with 8 not voting. The full title of HR 5175 is "Democracy is Strengthened by Casting Light on Spending in Elections Act." I can't conceive of a more Orwellian title than that.

I wonder if the next jobs bill will be entitled the "Arbeit Macht Frei" Act.
