To: Sub-Driver; All
Does ANYONE have a link to the final bill? It was released LAST NIGHT and there is no public availability.
REID IS HIDING IT from public examination.

What a travesty! But Big Media and the sheeple who voted for Zero will not be fazed. He says we have to do it RIGHT NOW! The Great Zero has spoken; do not contradict him!
To: Sub-Driver
Pelosi/Reid/Obama have not only cut the Republicans out of debating this bill... they’ve cut the Democrats out too! LOL
To: Sub-Driver
They will now because Senator Corker put a hold on it. It is not going anywhere for a while. All its contents will be spilled and the demos and Zero will look even worse than they do now. Obama is making Carter look bright and competent.

The emperor has no clothes!
A national travesty that will bind future generations to the yoke of debt needed to fund the socialism wrought by government, from the New Deal though the Great Society to the Raw Deal.
Another BOHICA moment in American History.

Reid is also hiding it from examination by House and Senate members.

Why read it when we know it’s perfect? Besides, catastrophic events will occur if the bill isn’t enacted!
We’re doomed! Stop reading! Start voting!
Let’s get spending!
Com’on, it’s only paper until you spend it!
I really hate this bill...not to mention the deal about subsidizing mortgages.
That proposed program poses so pertinent posers, to wit:
1) Who gets the subsidy?
2) How much is the subsidy?
3) Will the subsidies ever stop?
4) Will the recipients be required to pay back the subsidies at some time?
This plan won’t work either.
Ugh.

Couldn't one say this is “taxation without representation”?

When have they ever read what they vote on?
The best chance the repubs have for a landslide in ‘10 is exposing the staff of the dims - and all of their radical and lobbiest connections....

I believe either Pelosi or Reid is actually on record as saying that the Republicans don’t need to see it if they’re voting against it.
Animal Farm all the way.

Guess what -- Obama (the lawyer) hasn't read it either, although that won't stop him from lecturing us that it needs to be passed immediately.

To: Sub-Driver
If this bill is so “urgent,” why is only 30% of being spent in 2009?
Why not just pass the 30% portion now and debate the rest of non-urgent spending?

It doesn't matter what is in or not in the bill. He only needs to know which of two words it is, "Yes" or "No."
Useless cadaver.

..how come it's not a requirement to lead each senator by the hand,sit them down,let them read it completely, then vote.
Then when every piece of pork and earmarks are discovered, the citizenship can make a clear decision as to who represents them best?. It's our money, we should have a say on how it's spent.
Constitutionally,(which Bambi intends to alter) if searched, surely would bear out the legalities of such criminality.
