It’s good to be left out sometimes. A couple of weeks ago, Republicans unanimously pulled themselves out of the fun of passing Obama’s stimulus bill in the House. Yesterday, save for three legislative wastes of space, Republicans said “no” to the Senate version. Now, comes the word that Republicans are being left out of the House-Senate negotiations on finalizing the bill by the all-inclusive, unity-happy, postpartisan Democrats.

Republicans shouldn't want any credit for this disaster. I comment on this only because its fun to point out all of the "change" and "bi-partisanship" Democrats have showered upon Washington during in their eventful first three weeks in complete power.

All it took was three asshat rhino repubics in the senate!....Make damn sure these three are defeated in the next election!
Are the three tapeworms who caved allowed in conference or did they get the cold shoulder for thier votes as well?

Every time Dingy Harry and Stretch opened their filthy lying liberal mouths, I'd kick 'em in the teeth (figuratively).

Republicans are nothing but the Whining Bitter Clingers that Obama was talking about anyway.
So why should Chairman Obama even recognize this divisive, racist, bigotted voting bloc?..

The United Socialist States of America...
Heil Obama
My, how convenient.
