6 Republicans RINOS did not vote...those six could have defeated this.

While the RATS will loose several seats in both the house & senate, it won't make much difference. We have way to damn many RINOS and more are on the way.
JMHO

WHO WERE THE 6?

Actually, Sparky: NO ONE VOTED ON THE BUDGET BILL.

That's what is so outrageous about this Congress. The bill that you are citing is H.R. 1500, which deals with "emergency supplemental appropriations for disaster relief and summer jobs for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2010, and for other purposes".

The trickery lies in the last phrase. The actual F.Y. 2011 budget bill (H.R. 1493) WAS NOT EVER VOTED ON. Instead, this collection of lying, thieving bastards inserted a line within the text of the "emergency" bill that states: "House Resolution 1493 is hereby adopted" - while subtly amending a House rule to allow the deception.

Oh: and where is the news media, the "watchdog" of our liberties, the Guardian of Public Democracy on this issue. Our "watchdog" seems to be lying in the corner, whining about the heat wave and scratching the location where the veterinarian once removed something.

Probably not. Pelosi would have just gotten some more of her minions to vote for it. The vast majority of Democrats voting against only did so because it was "safe" to do so, and they're likely the ones most in danger of being ousted.
