Of course its a trap, democrats always do that, they slip in other stupid things into these bills they want that they know won't get passed by themselves. Like the bill to give money to the veterans the Republicans voted against, all the Democrats screamed Republicans hate the veterans! Truth is the Democrats also slipped into that bill a bit of manditory spending money for themselves to the tune of around 400 million dollars that they could use for anything with no explanation of how it was spent. Hell they could have just devided it up and given it to themselves. Thats the kind of thing the Republicans vote against. Which is what is happening with what youre talking about, Democrats up to their old tricks and threw in other ridiculas things. To answer your question, no, the Republicans aren't stupid, theyre to smart to let the Democrats get away with their corrupt bills.
