Considering Comrade Spector’s vote today..I'd say his brain tumor is already recurring. He should just get it removed...The surgery will only prevent him from sitting down for a few weeks.

Instead of calling this one T.A.R.P, it should be called C.R.A.P. - the Corrupt Rape of the American People. Disgusting!!!!!!!!

The porkulus republicans, after their spend-thrift years in power, are pretending to be shocked...shocked I say.

They couldn’t even keep their own coalition together. They are a joke.

When those in your group are indistinguishable from those in the other, then don’t suddenly start crying crocodile tears at me and expect me to take it seriously.

And Gregg abstained? Now that's courage. —

...He doesn't want to give any appearance of taking a side.-Cboldt

Isn't the inability to take a side and actually stand for something a quality of a RINO??

I’m not sure they even care about the regular budget any more. Or taxes. They’re just going to spend, spend, spend.

In this case, Gregg anticipates being in the administration and in a position of applying the laws. He doesn't want to cast a vote that affects his duties.

But year, the not taking a position is characteristic of RINOs, Democrats, and Republicans. Politicians, all of them, and all of them like the power they have wrested from the people.

Zimbabwe here we come. The idea of them wanting to cause massive inflation has certainly crossed my mind and this sort of unbridled borrowing, printing and spending of money would certainly do it. Huge debt is much easier to pay back with wildly a inflated currency....

Btw, I am so depressed

This is what they are counting on. As soon as the bill is passed, we all get depressed and stop screaming about what they're doing TO us.

We need to yell as loud or louder than before. Let's tell American what's in this bill before the final vote. Let's get ads for the seniors (soon to be ex-seniors). Let's talk about the spending and EXACTLY where it's going.

They're counting on us to take the heat off since this passed. That's why the huge hurry, to silence the opposition who is exposing them for what they are. Please don't. Now, more than ever, let's turn the heat up. And on Democrats, not just three Republicans.

Don't care if they "unfriend" me! Unfortunately its the relatives I can't unfriend!

I just love stirring the pot with them!

“As the Stimulus Package was being passed there was a woman in the audience of Obama’s Town Hall Prodction. She was blubbering and crying about needing a place to live and how desperate she was and woe is me and I need it now etc. etc.”

And nobody stood up and offered to help here? They are just sheep waiting for federal govt help? good gawd, we are in bad shape.

Collins, Spectre and old lady SNOWE The three of them have got to GO! T-shirt time!!

We can make T-shirts about the three dopes all we want but the bottom line is, the geniuses who live in Maine and PA voted for Obama by a wide margin.

Above and beyond that, there are about ten Democrat Senators who are in states that voted against Obama. All of these ten Democrat Senators voted for the bill too.

Yet no cries of "they must go" and no Tee Shirts are offered up with their names on it. In fact their names, Vetter, Landrieux, McCaskill, Johnson, Dorgan, Conrad, Tester, Baucus, Lincoln and Pryor don't even appear in this freepin' thread(until now).

Wondering in the wilderness in the dark are both supporters of Obama and even too many who don't support Obama including those here on this thread.
