Is senators like McCain and Specter are up for re-election next year. People need to remind them who they work for,

…I expect all, or nearly all, House Republicans to vote against this “stimulus”.

The problem is Senate Republicans – Specter won’t even vote against Holder, so you’ve got to expect upwards of 25 to 30 Senate Republicans *want* to vote for this idiocy.

Whether we’ll let them get away with that is the question now…

(As things stand now, I can easily envision as scenario in 2010 where Republicans gain seats in the House, but *lose* seats in the Senate – right now, I can’t imagine that very many rank-and-file Republicans are enthused about voting for *any* Senate Republicans, beyond people like DeMint and Coburn…)

to keep this from happening, right? It seems that with some of these RINOs we’re going to have to shoot them with a dart gun and then physically carry them to the press the “NAY” lever on their desks, but hey, whatever it takes. I’m willing to do it for the good of the country and my children.

cover is because they know the purpose here is pork and not stimulus. Any Republican who attaches his or her face to this monstrosity is a fool. Let the Dems own this steaming pile of crap.

The big O is pushing the pubs to vote for his bloat-out to marginalize them. How can you run against big government when you vote for it?

It give O and Co someone to blame if things go bad, Hey look, they voted for it!

That was supposed to say “Recommended reading for all in the media.”

…is when Republicans roll over and play dead, allowing the Democrats to have everything they want.

And the press lets him get away with it…
