I am also starting to hope that this whole thing will fall apart for the Dems when it goes to Conference. Too much will become transparent which might even make some Dems start doubting their previous votes.

That is my HOPE!

Lieberman (ID-CT), Yea - I held a little bit of my heart
open for this guy. Thought maybe, just maybe. If he voted
for that bill then he can take the independent off. As well
as the Rinosaurs that voted for it.

The sheeple got the government they voted for. Now let's see how they like it.

I'm looking forward to a Republican-controlled house in 2010 and a Republican president in 2012.

Time for the RINOS to get THROWN OUT

Agreed, but the damage has been done.

The only fix for this is pitch forks, tar and.... maybe some feathers for good measure.

Some dimwit told me “shame on me” when I predicted that the pork bill would pass the senate with some token modifications and some Republicans voting for it. Wish I could remember who it was.

“This is a misleading thread...The vote was on quorum and NOT of the bill”

It is because many of us are still confused about where we are at this moment what is about to happen.

“Not Voting - 1
Gregg (R-NH)”

You can read my older posts about this traitor...at least he had the decency to fall on his sword instead of running again in 2010

I agree. The RNC shall not get another cent from me until Specter, Snowe, and Collins are ejected from the party.

The quorum vote was yesterday evening - which lead to this vote today - this is the real deal the bill passed the Senate and now goes to conference with the House.

I've said from the very outset that porkulus would pass in the senate.

The Dems have a large majority, after all.

There must’ve been some other (well deserved) reason I cast shame upon you.

We need 2 of three to changes their votes...I could care less about the small details (although e-verify and the healthcare portions are important).

The important part is that this converts us to Socialism/Marxism from here on out with an uncontrollable debt service of borrowed funds that makes everyone DEPENDENT ON GOVERNMENT. Every aspect of your life is regulated, taxed and overseen by some type of bureaucracy related to government...taxes, environmental studies, business laws, minimum wage requirements, Sarbanes-Oxley, mark-to-market accounting, insurance, disclosure, even taxes on food, cigarettes, mileage, carbon emissions, disposal of batteries and oil...

No borders. Foreign nationals are suing private citizens when they are stopped invading private property.

Obama has given $20 million to settle refugees from the Gaza Strip in the US with Hamas ties.

He wants to meet with Iran; dismantly Gitmo; reduce military spending and cozy up to Russia, China and Venezuela.

This porkulus package makes it impossible for us to dig out of our hole...people do not understand that more labor unions, more socialized medicine and PC-based corporate and public sector promotion is the end of prosperity.

No tax breaks for business, only refunds for those who didn’t pay in the first place.

This is a major f’ing disaster that will DWARF the New Deal, which took the largest armed conflict in the world’s history for 5 years to undo.

Obama is a lying Kenyan who used Soros and friends to make the run on money markets in September which caused the collapse, it was on Rush today.

I am pissed.

I am beyond stunned at what is going on. I believe, even Obama voters, have no idea what is happening.

DAMN!

Things look grim, but we mustn’t quit. We must fight on in whatever way possible to stop this runaway train of Obama-style Socialism.

Sign me up with the nearest Resistance Chapter!
