REJOICE DEMOCRATS ! MASSIVE VICTORY ON THE STIMULUS BILL!! HERE'S WHY :
Advertisements [?]THIS IS BEAUTIFUL !! Obama WINS !! Dems WIN !! And in the process, even WITH REPUBLICAN pieces in the bill (and YES there were Republican pieces, several of them), even WITH all kinds of tax cuts, even with over 100 billion removed from the most expensive version, even WITH 60% national support for the bill, even WITH Obama AND Dems trying to work with them, the STUPID EXTREMIST RIGHT WINGERS STILL VOTED AGAINST IT while also ATTACKING AND DEMONIZING the three brave relative moderate Republican Senators (two from my home state) who broke ranks, thereby proving that they ARE NOT interested in bipartisanship, that they are wedded to the same old trickle down, pro rich, Bush/Cheney necon policies of the past, that they are entirely out of step with the nation, and that there is NO ROOM LEFT in the right wing fascist RePIGlican Party of today for anyone approaching moderate. THIS IS A HUGE, HUGE VICTORY FOR OBAMA AND OUR PARTY IN MANY, MANY WAYS !! REJOICE DEMOCRATS, EVEN IF SOME THINGS WERE REMOVED FROM THE BILL THAT YOU WANTED (and I understand that frustration, but please be happy with all we DID get here), BECAUSE IN THE BIG PICTURE THIS IS A WONDERFUL VICTORY FOR US OVER THE ROTTEN REPUBLICANS !!! WE SMACKED THE RIGHT WINGERS DOWN HARD HERE WITH NATIONAL SUPPORT, AND WE MADE SURE THEY UNDERSTOOD DAMN WELL THAT ELECTIONS HAVE THEIR CONSEQUENCES AND THERE'S A NEW SHERIFF IN TOWN. GOOD!! DAMN GOOD !!
Just wait until the American people have had time to figure out what your little coup is going to cost them.

2. We don't need the Republicans to govern
It is time to utterly crush the Republican party.
We need to rid our country of this blight called the Republican Party once and for all. No more Mr. Nice Guy. Give them the same treatment that they have been giving us for the last eight years.
I wish you would be as inclusive as the GOP has been.

3. Agreed. I'd like to work with the R's, but they are TOO EXTREME to work with now.

Rahm "The Usurper" Emmanuel seems to agree:
But Emanuel said that they recognized they had overdone their initial outreach to Republicans and had offered "a sharp message for the last week."
For now, the hard-charging chief of staff added, “He has an open hand, but he has a very firm handshake.â€
Translation: Yes, the president will continue to do obligatory outreach to the GOP, but he’s not going to be burned again by an out-of-power and toothless minority for the sake of appearances...

Actually, UrbanSurvival.com is predicting that this will happen in about 4 months. Remember all those "REVOLUTION!" threads that were at the DUmp while President Bush was in office? Hey, lurking DUmb****s--they may just come true soon. And we have most of the guns. :-) :tongue: :evillaugh:
But, UrbanSurvival.com says that the time for "hunkering and bunkering" is November. Go figure.
