The cable news networks are standing by for a press conference by House Republicans on the bailout bill. It should start some time after 6:30 p.m. EDT.
“BiPartison is the most useless word in Government today as there isn’t any such a thing. Todays Democrats are not the Democrats of yore, they are Socialists. There is no such thing as “reaching across the aisle” to a Socialist in our Government, our culture. It doesn’t work period. They believe that BiPartisanship is you give, I take.
I believe someday....SOMEDAY Conservatives are going to realize that there is only one way to address any of todays Democrats in our Government, and that is with a bulldozer.
Run ‘em over.
The main task of we the people is to keep the bastards out of office.
I can't win. I'm not John McCain. But what can still win is to be bolder than any Republican has been in modern history (with the possible exception of Ronald Reagan):
Tell the detailed truth about Barack Obama, to every man, woman, and child in this nation.
It has now been researched and documented. All that must happen now is to tell all the truth -- and don't give an inch. Don't shuck and jive. Call him a phoney Democrat and a phoney American. Call him the radical's try for a Marxist Messiah -- and lay it all out.
Don't tell me you haven't read what I've been linking to. We all need to tell everyone.
The man of steel in this was Michigan's Thaddeus McCotter. My Gosh we have a leader here......
McCain’s behavior on the whole issue is a given. Considering it was when he was “acting” like a conservative that his polls rose, I’m not shocked at all his reverting to Democrat lite type as resulted in huge losses.
But House Republicans have no responsibility to follow him. They don’t have to vote for this bill. They can hang it on the Democrats. It sounds like enough are going to give the Democrat’s cover instead. Then the Democrat’s will turn around and use it against them in their congressional races.
What I want is the House Republicans en masse to vote it down. That’s the only action that’ll renew some energy.
But one more thing, about John McCain. For him to tell the truth, he has to understand the truth, himself.
Hear the distant sound of hoof beats?
It’s the sound of the 527 cavalry riding to the rescue.
God, I hope you are right!
Yes, 43 years young. McCotter should be a strong Congressional GOP leader for a long time. Too bad that many idiot voters would never vote for him as POTUS (not enough hair...so it goes).
If there are Pubs that do not want this then hopefully they will not vote for it, but for the the GOP to do the right thing then NONE OF THEM should vote for it. Vote on principle, let the rats vote it into law, let them get the blame, then sweep the rats out of power in the elections in November. But McCain needs to be on board with them, not them be on board with him.
That House version does not contain the word “bi-partisan” once. Don’t know if it’s the final version, but I find that disturbing. Could that be correct?
You’ve got to be kidding, why would republicans vote for BO? It makes no sense.
Thank You.
This is what I was thinking and it is the scary part...
And investment large pension funds invest in - might be derivatives. And those are toxic now.
Not all derivatives are “toxic.”
The movement likely is attributable to the events of the last week. Whatever the reason, it’s happened.
Gingrey on FOX said he believes a lot of the House Repubs are going to vote NO tomorrow. Speculation that if enough vote NO the blue dog democrats aren’t going to sign on either. Guess we’ll have to wait and see. I feel a tad better knowing that a bunch of them are going to vote NO. Wish it was unamimous.
