Economic Stimulus Bill passes House by vote of 244-188 . The GOP caucus was unanimous in their opposition.
12 Democrats voted against the Stimulus.
Similarly, Clinton's first budget passed with no GOP support either.
11 Democrats voted nay, rather. Loretta Sanchez changed her vote.
Louisiana Senator David Vitter tells Newsmax TV how the economic stimulus plan is no good for the economy. He says there are too few tax cuts and some of the items listed as tax cuts aren’t cuts at all, but new spending programs. He also notes this is another attempt by Democrats to channel billions of dollars to ACORN, the group that actively supported Obama and other Democrats during the campaign.

Well, at least the Rats will have to own this obscene spending bill all themselves.
They wrote it, they own it, they will die with this monstrosity.
Porkulus indeed.

WAY TO GO, HOUSE GOP!
Now if we can get the Senate to line up the same way, we can actually STOP this dreadful bill.
Good for them. Good things come to those who wait. I applaud them.
Now, they need to put pressure on the Senate to do likewise!
Finally, a sane vote from the Republicans! Maybe there is a shred of hope for them yet.
Do you know which R voted for it?
Now, if only the Senate Republicans can follow suit. Block this monstrosity people.
If your own rep voted no, email and thank him. THEY NEED TO HEAR FROM US.
