If you know anything about bills then you know that alot of crap ALWAYS gets thrown in to take care of someone's special intrest (this is where the line item veto would come in handy).

You say that your grenades are well researched yet you have failed to provide us with any evidence to support the claim. Am I to take you at your word?
