They are stealing money as fast as they can.

They are printing money to steal as fast as they can. But the money they steal will be worth a Zimbabwean dollar ultimately.

It is not going to work. It is not sustainable. We are headed for California crisis to the power of 1000.

The Chinese continue to warn us that they are not going to finance this. They mean it.

Congress is spending money that the bank is telling them is not coming.

Don’t bother. It has already been done. Just look at the sidebar and up and down this thread.

Uh, I'm quite awake. Was watching c span on the computer and the legend said the vote was for the amendment put forth by the Virginia rep as alternative to the 300 page amendment.

Excuse the f*** out of me if I'm confused by all of this BS.

Time for revenge on them to teach the other wayward Republicans a lesson.

Where have I heard that before?!

The dems would've found a replacement vote for each of those 8 votes, if they needed them.

I don't know. They held their fingers to the wind until well after the R's voted, both on the amendment and the bill.

I just wish there was a snowball's chance in hell that the bulk of Americans could have known what the rats just did to our country.

Trust me, if any of them actually read the blasted thing, they certainly did NOT read the 300+ page amendment that was delivered after 3:00 a.m. this morning. Who do they think they are kidding?

Of course they didn't read it.

A legislator should be embarrassed to vote on any legislation he or she has not taken the time to read and understand.

I hope to find out whether my congressman is capable of embarrassment.

I just wish some enterprising staffer slipped in a mandate to burn the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.

That may slow down the passage of these 'bills' sight unseen.....then again maybe not.

Is 8 enough repub votes for the dems to claim a ‘bipartisan’ passage in the house?

Or how about really bringing them to their knees by slipping in a mandate that requires the Congress to carry the same health care package that they plan to vote in for us common folk.

For the current Democrat party, only one Repub is needed I imagine.

Get the people to watch the remarks of the President admitting that “electricity rates will skyrocket”.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HlTxGHn4sH4&feature=related

Then encourage them to call their Senators. Do their legwork for them. Supply them with the phone numbers. Some folks are lazy but they do understand paying their electric bil. After all, it could be 4 or 5 less cases of beer a month.
