Live Thread: Senate Porkulus Vote

Posted on 02/10/2009 7:05:11 AM PST by NoGrayZone

I didn't see a live thread and I just can't watch this debacle alone.

Meagan Kelly on Fox said the FBC filed a lawsuit under the freedom of information act to find out where this "lost" 78 billion dollars went from the first "bailout".

Things are getting a tad bit too interesting for my taste!

Okay, thanks. As long as there is still a possibility for this demon to die.

Well if it’s “simplistic” you want, try this: I believe that public schools are a form of welfare, and paying taxes has become a form of socialism, and anyone who cooperates with either one is now officially a good German in my book.
Those who will, enjoy your Kerryesque nuances.

“So is Major now a White House aide?”

IMO, he jumped the shark some time ago.

I agree.

Jon Tester, D-MT, looked like a deer in the headlights on this issue.

So if it wasn’t for the 3 traitors, this thing would die, as is.

Knee jerk reactions from Congress and Senate will require knee jerk reactions from citizens.

Good luck fellas!

Not necessarily...could pass on straight party vote, but then the One doesn’t have his “bi-partisan” cover

Funny fact is I am German. Following the laws and raising good kids is something I won’t hold against anyone.

Bread lines aren't really so bad. It's a great opportunity to socialize with others you may have never gotten to know. ;-)

I came to the conclusion long enough ago that I don’t even sound like a pessimist when I say it now. ;)

-- So if it wasn't for the 3 traitors, this thing would die, as is. --

That's correct. A determined group of 41 senators can block anything. A determined group of 60 senators can pass anything.

A determined single, solitary senator could have delayed this vote until next week, by not entering into the unanimous consent agreements that shorten the time allowed for debate, etc.
