Late on Thursday night, the Senate voted 63-33 to break a Republican filibuster of the defense appropriations bill. The three Republicans who voted against this delay of military spending: Kay Bailey Hutchison (TX), Olympia Snowe (ME) and Susan Collins (ME). The filibuster was part of the Republican effort to delay the health care bill.
Interesting that their hatred for healthcare reform actually supersedes their love for defense spending - the only thing Republicans never oppose. Ever.
