AND NOW . . . amidst billowing clouds of fragrant, aromatic first- and second-hand premium cigar smoke. . . it is time for . . . that harmless, lovable little fuzz ball, the highly-trained broadcast specialist, having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have, from behind the golden EIB microphone, firmly ensconced in the prestigious Attila-the-Hun chair at the Limbaugh Institute of Advanced Conservative Studies, with talent on loan from G-d, at the cutting-edge of societal evolution, with half his brain tied behind his back just to make it fair, the all-knowing, all-caring, all-sensing, all-feeling, Maha-Rushie! America's Anchorman, Truth Detector, Doctor of Democracy, and Chief of the Patriotism Police. He is the man who runs America. He knows the Democrats like every square inch of his glorious naked body. He is ready to do what he was born to do--That's host. Get ready to what you were born to do--That's listen (and post your comments on the Rush Limbaugh LIVE Radio Thread).
Rush just reported that “they” are “browbeating” 11 members of the house to change their vote?
he said “keep an eye on this!”
Dow is down 431 now... Adam Putnam voted for it... :(
Good time to buy.
According to Fox just now the package is defeated as it stands now, but she said the vote will remain open until both sides decide that they can’t twist any more arms to get them to change their votes. I’ll bet the vote stands!!
Whoo Hoo!!!
In other news, the Ohio SC just upheld a same-day voter registration put into place by our new Sec of State, Jennifer Brunner. She is completely messing up Ohio voting laws. This may actually be a case where Ohio IS stolen for Obama.
“It hasnt passed yet, it hasnt closed. I want to know what the solution is then! If this bill does not pass ever, what will happen????”
In my opinion, the market will have some ups and downs but so be it. The Republicans should be able to bring out a bill to cut Capital Gains and all will be just fine in no time.
Best news ever is that the DEMS lost this one, and now the Republicans and wise Democrats who voted against it can tell the reasons why! The bill was terrible in every way!
It is now 207 Yea, 226 Nay
Someone already changed their vote.
Are there that many (19) people being smoozed?
That wine you mentioned sounds great.
i don't think anyone knows - lots of opinions out there
it might just be that all our attempts to avoid pain by manipulating markets will cause us to go through a bad time - it might be that passing this bill would delay it - but there is no guarantee
it might be that passing this bill would delay the bad times but make the inevitable worse - i don't think anyone knows
2 votes have switched.
It ain’t over until Pelosi calls it over.
Rush just brought up my point about “Conservative” Dems at risk for reelection. :)
They failed to twist the arms! It’s a done deal! Whoo Hoo!!
.....really a time to celebrate? I guess I'll break out the BoonesFarm and my Velveeta...
Pelosi will be offering power, drugs, hookers — hell, she will sell a night with her own daughter for votes.
I’m going to Publix and get Keel & Curlew Strawberry Wine.
Are they entertaining a motion to reconsider?
susie
Well this bill went down bigtime! The Dems are scared stiff to face angry voters.
Well...if people are going to lose jobs over this....lik e ME....then I want it passed. IF they have provisions to get interest back and paid for, and limit the golden parachutes, then what is the problem???
