"When MSNBC asked Collins how she would react to the restoration of the House spending plan, she replied, The Democrats will lose my vote.
Similar remarks by Specter prompted House Majority Leader Steny H. Hoyer (D-Md.), not known for his bellicosity, to fire back at his weekly pen-and-pad session with reporters: Im shocked that any senator of any party would say this is the bill we passed, take it or leave it.

Nancy Pelosi has to learn to get over herself. She is not Queen and is not better than the people. She has been elected to serve the people; not the other way around.

It would be wise for other elected office holders to remember they are also elected to serve the people.

The Socialist Dems should have never HAD your vote! The Republican party need to clean house and purge all RINOs... as I said in my email to the new RNC head Michael Steele.

Does it really matter??
Will the Senate need 60 votes for final passage or is it a simple majority now. If that is the case, we are soooooooooooooooo screwed.

three moderate Republicans and a conservative Democrat Why not, "three liberal Republicans and a moderate Democrat"? Because the writer wants you to believe that a non-moderate is an extremist.

I've been calling Congress almost constantly since last week. especially Specter and Casey. Interestingly enough after getting through several times over the past couple of days I started getting "Call Failed" messages from Specter's DC office. That prompted me to ask is they have a phone blocker installed. They claim no but I'm still not convinced. If I find out they DO have a blocker...
In any case...
KILL THE PORKULUS!

Obama is the typical shyster salesman. Its the best thing available anywhere and is only available if you buy it today without examining any of its details. In truth its a real bufflo jump ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffalo_jump ) with congress and Obama driving the nation over the cliff.
Will Obama wait for five days of email comments before he signs this? Seems as though someone on FR found such a promise.

Yes ... It's a good thing for US that she is the only one of those, 500 or so, criminals.
Thanks for the early morning laugh.

I contacted both Sen. Collins' office and Sen. Snowe's office (my Senators)the other day.
I made it clear that I cannot and will not vote for anyone in the future that votes 'Yea' on the final stimulus bill.
I urge all Mainers to do the same!
