I'm sure there are some that would consider such information useful indeed.

Aqua,
I am sure that some people really and truly believe that there will come a day when politicians will not lie/shade or spin the truth/deemphasize the inconvenient, etc. to achieve their goals.
I am not a member of that group.
How about if we wait to see what the final bill looks like before deciding “it is bad” or “it is good”?
