Believe CNN at your own peril. How many times do they have to lie to you before they come discredited?

I’m with you. We would be better off if they picked people at random for the house and senate, just like they do a jury. Two years and out. We would have a far better Republic.

Zero changes the equation as far as RINOs go IMO.

This can NOT be tolerated.

If RINO’s don’t vote Conservative, then they will no longer be elected on the conservative ticket. These people are more dangerous IMO than the idiots in the Dem party because they can(and in the case WILL) enable the Socialists to use her vote against our ideals.

Buh-Bye Suzy Sleazeball.

Your clock is ticking or you early retirement from politics.

My husband is watching the cable news shows and cannot find any confirmation of this going down.

Yeah, and that was the tough thing about supporting McCain. I was backing a fourth rate firefighter over a first rate arsonist.

Buy gold while you still can, and froget selling your real estate; with the government eating up all the credit, there won't be any for home buyers.

Big surprise Collins folded lol.

I’ll bet if you take the original amount of approximately 825 vs the “improved amendment add ons” up to 925...from a cost basis of 825bill, the cuts probably amount to a measley 25-50 billion amount...and that is prior to going up again in the Senate-House conference lol.

“For a Few Dollars Less”...sound like an old spaghetti western to me.

She is not even smart enough to realize that she is being duped into giving the Dems political cover by now calling it “bipartisan”.

It’s not just the size of it. It’s that most of it goes to democrat liberal friends and it has nothing to stimulating the economy. If this passes, the democrats will be in power for 50 years just off the money funneled to their supporters who will then use it in elections to keep them in power.

Funny I had to see a doctor on Wednesday and he was having to input into a computer as he asked me questions... he kept appologizing that Obama makes them do all this stuff now... cracked me up! BTW, it is much less personal and he knew it and I knew it...

Voinovich left the discussion and said he was upset.

If Voinovich is upset and it does not meet his moderate standards, what the hell did they even compromise on!?

How is EVERY democrat onboard with this?
They make it sound like 780B is full of cuts, even though its just a mere 39B. Good job Senators, week spent well.

We just moved to Maine. Collins is worse than I had thought if she goes with this. Her office has heard a lot from us in the past week. We’ll never vote for her (or her buddy).

“I have Zero respect for all politicians. We would be better off without any of them.”

Agreed. Thus my new tagline.
