Politics: "a rare victory for Middle-America"

Twenty-two Republicans joined all 200 voting Democrats and one independent in telling the Bush administration to shove it. 'It' being the new overtime rules that will take overtime pay away from some six million workers and protect businesses from lawsuits filed by workers to get the pay they deserve from the cutthroat-BMW-driving-MBAs that don't want to give it to them.

Now, should overtime rules be overhauled? Maybe. But these weren't the rules with which to overhaul.
