Shameful. Washington is spending like $100 billion a week. Pigs on crack.

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

They’re spending like this because they think that’s what the public wants.

They’re spending like this because they think the sheeple will let them get away with it. So far, they're right.

[Fred]

I can already see the commercials for the 2010 elections. They will be full of Odrama saying how he will not allow earmarks, followed by an oh really, panning to Odrama signing the pork infested earmark budge of 2009.

Thank you Mister president...

[April Lexington]

Its like battered wife syndrome. They keep beating us and we keep sending them back to Washington.

Collins getting too much heat? Specter is a low down dirty rat. I hate that SOB, he's despicable. 8 year limits. PERIOD! They are there too long, they get more corrupt as the years pass. How long do we allow the government to keep this up. Seriously, we are so close to just selling it all and getting out of here. Sick and damn tired of working for their pet projects. Are there any Senators that have been in there many years that don't have a lot of money?

Must have been major pork in there for Mississipi. Both Republicans voted for it.

[tallyhoe]

No they are all well off! Mostly off of the taxpayers!

[WildcatClan]

Bond Voted “Yea” and McCaskill voted “Nay”. I have no words.

[BellStar]

With a loophole allowing billions in economic stimulus funds to go to some 300,000 construction workers who are in the country illegally.

[BellStar]

Hutchison (R-TX), Nay, Cornyn (R-TX), Nay

[DaveArk]

Obama will sign the measure Wednesday, the White House said

What happened to the 5 day public comment period? I suppose this is an emergency also./s

[techno]

Most politicians try to parse their words. With Obama, he just tells lies and doesn’t care one bit that he is lying:it’s all orchestrated as part of the Alinsky playbook.

[tallyhoe]

We passed term limits in Washington State and Congressman Tom Foley Wa took it to the Supreme Court and it was found unconstitutional! You need a constitutional amendment!

[SumProVita]

Lamar is going looney...

[mwl8787]

They snuck the shutdown of the DC voucher program into final passage. Teachers unions won over school choice for broken schools in DC. Unbelievable - affects Obama children’s own classmates... they slammed the door in their faces.

Will minorities ever learn that Democrats are not their friend?

[stockpirate]

They can’t allow the riff-raft to be around dear leaders kids.

[Sir Francis Dashwood]

Will minorities ever learn that Democrats are not their friend?

“Must have been major pork in there for Mississipi. Both Republicans voted for it.”

According to Glenn Beck, it was a 950K nature information center. Thanks, you crappy repubs,’et tu, Brute’?

[MortMan]

What I find insulting is that they try to lay this at Bush’ feet by saying “It’s the Bush budget”.

Some days I really do hope Obama sprains his forked tongue, so that his hypnotic bovine excrement stops for a little while and maybe people can see him for the charlatan he truly is.
