"The vote in the Senate was 82 to 13. Mr. Obama missed the roll call issuing a campaign statement saying that the bill was 'far from perfect' and would have preferred 'tighter payment limits.' However he added that 'with so much at stake we cannot make the perfect the enemy of the good.' And he then went on to rake Mr. Bush and John McCain who opposed the bill for 'saying no to America s farmers and ranchers no to energy independence no to the environment and no to millions of hungry people.' In other words given the chance to support cuts in farm subsidies for the rich Mr. Obama chose instead to attack his Republican opponents for doing precisely that."
