Which is it? Was it not enacted because there was an impasse or for political reasons?

Re-read what I posted from TAPPED. You have a bill that the Senate passed 96-2, but the House leadership won't let it come to a vote. Instead, they're pushing an alternative bill that omits most of the 9/11 Commission's recommendations, and includes a bunch of other peripheral things.

Why does that mean there is bad intent? The two houses often disagree, though usually the dead end is the Senate not the house. Where's the smoking gun?
