Angry The Secret Ballot

As I understand it, six Senators were in the chamber when the $87,500,000,000 oil subsidytax on the next generation passed. Only Sen Byrd called naye and it passed without anyone making an official vote. All the Senators, except Byrd, can now pretend they took whatever position they want when they run next time. Weasles! Why or how does anyone vote for a (small r) representative when they avoid taking responsibility for, arguably, the most important vote this term.
