It will never be too late.

If we have to fight from relocation camps, so be it.

The people will rise up before that though.

Keep fighting until the whites of their eyes are bloodshot.

All,

For those who believe in the power or prayer, I suggest praying this 9 times a day for 9 days:

May the sacred heart of Jesus,
be adored, glorified, loved and preserved
throughout the world now and forever.

Sacred heart of Jesus, pray for us.
Saint Jude worker of Miracles, pray for us.
Saint Jude, helper of the hopeless,
Pray for us.

Jim, if you want to kill porkulus, I believe you must adopt a version of Limbaugh’s operation chaos.

That is you must pressure Pelosi and the democrats in the house to hold out for whole loaf. You need to support Pelosi and make her want it all. The battle cry should be “we won, the conservative rubes lost and we want it all”

Then, the republicans in the senate will walk away en masse on the final vote, and fillibuster it too.

“all three made statements to the effect that they WOULD vote NO if the conference committee (all Dems) made significant changes in amount or scope to the Senate bill. “

please read post 308

Gosh all of a sudden I want to move to SF, declare myself democrat and gay and then run against Nancy. Then once elected I’ll reconcile with my hubby and change parties. ;)

No it’s not too late:

“Specter said one of the “big problems” with the stimulus bill is, “Why the rush? Why are we wedded to [a Feb. 13 deadline for passage]?” Specter noted that Congress never held hearings on the bill, and that has created problems.”

I think Specter got spooked. With God’s help and a little prayer, this whole thing may fall apart.

[Pelosi: “. . .my experience has been that the White House has a seat at the table — that they weigh in.”]

It was apparent by his remarks at his press conference that Obama was standing over Pelosi’s shoulder when she cobbled together this legislative monstrosity. There's never been any doubt as to where Pelosi stands. But Monday night Obama revealed himself as an extortionist who will use his pulpit to negatively impact the world economy until Democrats are paid off. If this overrated token has his way the final version of the stimulus will cost more than World War II. God save us.

I am so upset over this attack on our future

Baynative, just keep your cool, then, one step at a time, keep doing what you’ve been doing. We don’t want to lose your vote to a heart attack. (take at least one break a day for lunch.)

Write one letter, then do a high lite, copy, and paste. It’s much faster.

I ask everyone honestly -

Are there any polls out that show public support for this?
I haven’t seen one.

Anecdotally, my very liberal friends are as pissed off about this bill as I am. I don’t get it...

"I'm really at a lack of words how to express my admiration, respect for the love of our country, the patriotism and the courage of three brave senators. Specter from Pennsylvania, Snowe and Collins from Maine. I don't think I need to say more than that." - Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV)

Retail sales up in January, unemployment claims down. Is the “stimulus” working before it has even started? /sarc

Keep the pressure on....
