I am thankful for the 25, but that is absolutely pathetic that there are that few people who will keep their word and stand like patriots. We are in deep deep trouble and sticking with republicans is not the answer.

Well I think that it is a false choice to say that reps are either
a) sticking to principles or
b) caving

By rejecting this bill in the House, control of the situation is returned to Obama and Dems. The Rs will be blamed for the bad economy, unemployment, and of course the constant stories that will be continuously played on MSM about some poor soul who the Rs are hurting. Dems win big in '12. Tea Party is damaged and so is the Country.

Talk about snatching defeat from the jaws of victory - rejecting this bill would be just that.

The money that isn't spent is good - but do you know how much will still be spent?

Passing this bill keeps the House in control - including Tea party - which we need lots more of in '12.

Well you are forgetting the Democrats in Washington standing in solidarity with the 25.
