Porkulus Bill LIVE THREAD- CSPAN- 02/13/09 (*60-38 PORK PASSES*)

02/13/09 | Congress

[TornadoAlley3]

each Rep allowed one minute to speak.

[lodi90]

And the three stooges in the senate are signing off on this parliamentary mugging. The least they could do is demand proper protocol for the bill.

[ding_dong_daddy_from_dumas]

I suppose that the Demons agreed on the 48 hour rule to get some concession from the Republicans?

That's what you get when you trust Dems.

[TornadoAlley3]

Senate in quorum call.

[Sig Sauer P220]

I thought that too! LOL!

Timmy, have you ever seen a grown man, naked?

[TornadoAlley3]

Rangel up now.

[AGreatPer]

“It is considered read.” I don’t get it.

[Sig Sauer P220]

Gawd, I can’t stand listening to Rangel. Clear your throat you POS.

[TSgt]

Rangel - “How will we be recorded when everyone is screaming for help?” “Hope for those people who are not only jobless but hopeless.”

[pctech]

Most of us feel the same way but we don’t express it like you just did.

[Girlene]

House resolution 168 passed, bill is considered read. 48 hour rule means nothing now, on we go...

Great. /s They need to get this rammed through quickly before more people change their minds. Latest Rasmussen says support for the bill has increased slightly in the last week with 44% supporting, 40% opposed after Obama's campaigning. But, 49% trust their own judgment more than Obama's when it comes to economic issues. 67% trust their own judgment more than Congress.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

In other words......it’s ALL about IMAGE!!!!! Not about the American people. POS!

[Sig Sauer P220]

Sounds like a female Desi Arnaz is on now.

[TornadoAlley3]

Republican Dave Camp- Michigan, voting nay.

[TSgt]

Dave Camp - “This stimulus plan will not stimulate the economy.”

[sofaman]

I switched to the Senate.

Rangel (POS-NY) telling members of the House that they will have to explain to the American people why they didn't vote for this bill when he can't, won't or dare not explain his tax cheating, is too much for my stomach to take this early in the morning.

Oh good. Grassley, Mr. Excitement.

[Lovergirl]

So this bill has already passed? Why are they discussing it? to make themselves look good? I do not understand all this stuff.

[End Times Sentinel]

Let's calm down folks, nothing is going to happen today. They PROMISED to wait 48 hours before voting on this bill, and it wasn't posted until 11pm last night, so they can't possibly vote before 11pm Saturday.

O.K.?

They wouldn't lie to us, would they? I mean, that promise was just made Tuesday, and the democrat party is honest and a party of the people, right?

[Squidpup]

[longtermmemmory]

Democrats are saying translation: “We KNOW a solar eclipse is comming, if we do not spend TRILLIONS of dollars on bongo drums to beat during the eclipse to make the sun come back there will be rioting in the streets. We don’t know if bongos make solar eclipses go away, but we have to do something.”

[TSgt]

She reminds me of Frau Farbissina from Austin Powers.
