I was watching CSAP the other day and didn't understand a thing that was happening. I'm so clueless about how it all works....
I know from schoolhouse rock that a bill gets sponsored in to the house or senate, and then it's voted on, and sent to the other guys for a vote, and if it gets 2/3rd majority from both sides it's a law, which then becomes signed by the president.
But when I was watching cspan, they were voting on whether they wanted to think about voting on something or not. ??
