GOP = "Grand Obstructionist Party"
I'd like to see this bumper sticker on millions of automobiles across America.
Also this one:
If it doesn't mean tax cuts for millionaires,
or spending for Bush's "Wargasm,"
then the Republicans aren't interested...

OK, this is a little confusing. The stimulus package passed the House, it's just that no R's voted for it. So where's the obstructionism? You can't obstruct something when you don't have the numbers to obstruct.
And shouldn't they be celebrating that no R's voted for it? To their tiny noodles, that can only mean that when it succeeds the D's would get all the credit. But yet there's thread after thread after thread over there all upset that no R's voted for it. So what's up with that, and why all the anger?
If someone suggests they wanted R's on board because they want cover, then I've got to ask why? Don't they believe in what's being done? Wouldn't you rather get all the credit and leave the other side hanging? This is the perfect set-up for them. If it succeeds, then the R's will continue to suffer loses at the ballot box. And yet they're upset about the vote.
Should someone suggest they want the country to come together and work in harmony, then I've got to laugh, because that would be in stark contrast to the history of this country from the beginning. There's always going to be differences. It's quite possible they're that stupid to believe all citizens will hold hands in harmony. If anyone is that stupid, it's definately the primitives.
My only guess is they're scared that all R's are in line against them, and that can spell trouble. Of course, this was just the House vote. Senate R's could crumble like a bunch of cheap cookies.
