For quite sometime, I have stumbled upon comments by users here saying Obama voted with "MBNA Biden" on the Bankruptcy Bill and how they feel disappointed by his "yea" vote. Today, I saw another one. Those are legitimate feelings to have; that is, if Barack Obama voted for the Bankruptcy Bill. But, small detail, he did NOT.

No Obama on the list. I know this is a really lame diary, but it just worried me that so many people thought Obama voted for something that he didnt. People here are usually,very well informed, more so than me, so it was troubling for me to see this.
