Why don't you buy a clue?

They were a part of the so-called Gang of 16 or 18 or 20. That means about half of the gang were of each party.

Currently, all they need are 2 to get this passed and to the Compromise Committee. Specter and Collins drew the short straw. Kennedy is supposed to fly in for the vote. If something happens and they need another vote, guess what -- Pubbies have a 3rd in reserve -- Senator Snowe.

If, for some reason, they need another 1 or 2 or 5 or 8 Pubbies, they will find them.

From Ben Stein

For the amount spent we could have given every unemployed person in the United States roughly $75,000.

We could give every person who had lost a job and is now passing through long-term unemployment of six months or longer roughly $300,000.

You can make up all the speculative baloney you want.

The FACT is: Out of 219 GOP House Senate members, so far, only 3 RINOs have defected.

That's the kind of solidarity we were praying for just a few short months ago.

And still you bitch.....
