How much disdain Republicans really have for the American public?

Proving once again how much disdain Republicans really have for the American public, the House passed a bill Wednesday, 250-173, to weaken the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Because they really, really don't want us to have any recourse against predatory businesses trying to fleece us. No, they believe that those predatory business should be getting the protection from any regulation that might keep them from maximizing profits, however they may choose to do so.
