Well cheap political hacks speaking as they do for fools speak for no one who matters.
I’m talking about Barry’s polling numbers which are dropping now behind the fall of the pork bill.
“Specter email returns a I will not answer this message unless you are from Pennsylvania.”
This is what I did: Look up “zip codes for Philadelphia” (or some city in PA) then use that zip code and city for the email. Mine went through.
Well you have to give Barry some credit. He’s going out to spew more propaganda to try to counter the smell of the pork bill.
This even though it appears to be in the final stages of passage. So that’s telling. He’s still trying to sell what has been shoved down American’s throats.
What a crock. Those jerks are solidly in the tank for the porkulus bill. They're just running their mouths publicly to try to stop their impending defeat in their next bid for office.
Nah. The only way we will be able to defeat this monstrosity is if we, each and every citizen of the United States, refuses to partake in the wealth redistribution programs. I can tell you right now, if you are a person or a company that has taken one cent from any of these kinds of bills my family and I will in no way ever do business with you again.
The effort to stop this bill and any subsequent bills like it need to be a grass roots effort.
Honestly people... How in the world can these pipe dreams of the liberals be paid for? If all they are going to do is print money with nothing of value to back up those bills then please, send every American a frigging printing press, the paper and ink and let us print up our own counterfeit crap. Why let obomba and his little band of gangsters corner the market?
This "stimulus bill" will only hurt you if you let it.
MHO
Ironically, this popped up this morning. Funny we were just talking about it. :)

WE NEED TO GO IN PERSON TO THE SENATE OFFICES!!!! THE PHONE LINES CANNOT ACCOMODATE THE CALLS. COLLINS’ LINE HAS BEEN SHUT OFF FOR DAYS, ANYWAY. KEEP CALLING and GO IN PERSON
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mrs. Esopman
Indeed, nice catch. You seem to have absorbed Barry by osmosis. :)
I posted the soon to be famous Obama clock: www.obamaclock.org
“What happened to Daschle could happen to them. Madame Pelosi included.”
Why do you think there is 4 billion in the bill for ACORN? To ensure that never happens again.
Construction of schools for which there are no students, and COBRA insurance and Medicaid benefits. Where's the stimulus????
Senate Rules (http://rules.senate.gov/senaterules/)
Riddick's Senate Procedure (http://www.gpoaccess.gov/riddick/index.html)
Most of the rules have a catch-all provision, "rule applies unless waived," which makes prediction of action tricky. Also, the Senate will combine rules-based actions into shortcut combinations, e.g., combining what is usually a cloture vote and a final vote into a single final vote w/60 vote margin; or a similar combination but with a point of order vote and a final vote.
Anyway, final passage of the conference report is subjected to an agreement as to ending debate to vote on the conference report, and at that point a 60 vote hurdle is erected.
I’ll bookmark that one! I’ll be counting the days! LOL!
Perhaps I am getting too cynical in my older age, but I read the article like it was all one big act among thieves to fool the sheeple. We need to keep the pressure on for sure, because it is working enough to have them deeply concerned.
Might I suggest that some Freepers in Florida target some big retirement communities with flyers explaining the ‘let seniors die’ part of the homicidal democrat ‘health plan’ in the porkulus? The best way to do it would be to list the actual parts of the bill and perhaps one of the articles that explain it all. So many seniors get all of their news from the MSM and probably have no idea what the democrats have planned for them.
Results of Calling so far today...
Collins- Call goes right to voice mail. Is her staff not even answering calls???
Voice mail box is full. Emails come back undeliverable. Is this democracy?
People in Maine..... please find a better Senator to run next time. I am from Massachusetts and I will help get someone else elected. Please.
Snowe- Line busy. Will call later. Emails undeliverable.
Spector- Line busy. Will call later.
They need to say NO when the bill comes back from the house. At the very minimum, they have to take ACORN out of this Bill!! No question. It is disgusting that Republicans can’t even bring the spotlight on this. Is there really two parties in DC? I wonder.
I emailed Mr. Steele too because as of last week he has not spoken with these three “winner”. I think this matter warrants a sit down. Please email RNC to be more proactive with outreach to Snowe, Spector, and Collins.
Have they really read the entire Bill? NO!! This is a disgrace. It is irresponsible beyond words.
Thank you Jim for your efforts in DC the other day.
Yes, but in their mind, "to serve the people" is the name of a cookbook.
I hope King Obammy can come to some agreement with her highness. After all, he gave her the responsibility of planning the Porkulus disaster because he had no clue how to even start.
Now, he has no clue how to decide what to do. Leave it up to his Leftist “Prime Minister” to sort it all out.
(We are so screwed.)
