You knew it was going to happen. It’s on their heads and let it all fall down on them in the next election.

If we knew who the 3 guy were, we might be able to make a difference.

I doubt we will ever find out.

When they vote, we will know. What makes you think we would not “find out””?

I can almost guarantee Rinovich is one of them.

Of course we will. Their votes will be on the record.

Collins, Snowe and either Voinivich or Luger is my guess.

“They’ve cut a deal with three of our guys. They’re delaying us from offering amendments. I suspect that as soon as they’ve got it written, they will offer it as an amendment, vote on it, and that will be it.” He didn’t have details on what the deal might be, but most Republicans seem to suspect it will involve relatively small cuts — and very little change in the price tag of the bill from the House version — that will be touted as a MAJOR BIPARTISAN COMPROMISE.
::::::::::::
Get the names of those RINOs. They will be on every sign board for 2010. But this is kinda how we figured it would go. A few traitorous RINOs. Now the MSM and Obama’s goons in the Congress will be yelling BIPARTISAN STIMULUS BILL.

BULL EXCREMENT.

Will all House republicans hold the line against this when it goes back there, or will they cave now too?

It will be hard to claim this as a “bipartisan” bill if only 3 Republicans in all of Congress votes for it.
