In headlines that could be straight from the Onion:
"The House of Representatives passed the Republican version of the
Violence Against Women Act on Wednesday, despite strong opposition from
Democrats.
The GOP version, passed 222-205, offers a stark
contrast from the bill passed by the Senate in late April, which will
lead to further political fighting as both chambers attempt to work out a
compromise over the law's reauthorization.Wednesday's vote fell
largely along party lines, though 23 Republicans voted against their own
party and opposed the bill. Meanwhile, six Democrats defected and voted
in favor of the Republican version."
