If the Bill passed, why is Zero so concerned about getting Republican “buy-in”? Spread the blame? Spread the guilt? What is he after?

“...Spread the blame? Spread the guilt? ...”

Exactly. If it doesn’t work, it’s the Republican’s fault. If it does work (when hell freezes over and pigs fly), he and the ‘Rats will take all the credit.

He wants cover and accomplices. If you have ever read Atlas Shrugged, this should seem very familiar.

I think he knows this Porkulus bill is unlikely to dent the recession, so he wants people to blame both parties and not have to take the hit himself.

I don't know if these ads will have much effect, two years before the next election. And threatening Republicans with union opposition? Like they ever supported us in the first place???

[freekitty]

He wants to blame anything that goes wrong on the opposition.

[mrmargaritaville]

there is only one way to explain this:

nobama and his lackeys in the house and senate KNOW this thing a going to fail-and they want to sell the American public on the nonsense that it is “bipartisan”. If there was any chance it was gong to be successful they would be celebrating the fact that not one R voted for it in the house. It will pass in the Senate-after they tack on their additional 50 billion of pork. Any intelligent R would not vote for this thing. It’s time to make a stand.

“If the Bill passed, why is Zero so concerned about getting Republican “buy-in”? Spread the blame? Spread the guilt? What is he after?”

You got it. If he gets bipartisan support in the Senate, it’s joint ownership of crap sandwich.

That’s why Fancy Nancy got her panties in a bunch yesterday; it’s looking like the Dems will totally own this failure.

Their political bailout disappears...
