Major KUDOS to the House Republicans and the 11 Dems who voted No!
The democrat majority was victorious today in passing Obama's massive spending bill but it was a hollow victory to be sure. Not one republican voted for it! What you will not hear reported is that 11 dems voted against the bill as well.
You can rightly say that the vote against the bill was bi-partisan, but the vote for the corpulent spending bill was purely partisan, and we all know how wonderful bi-partisanship is, don't we.
The House Dems now own this bill!
It's not likely that the republicans in the Senate will stand up to the left in unanimity, but it would be a beautiful thing to have zero republicans vote in favor of this porcine bill and let the dems have absolute total ownership. They don't need any republican votes for this to pass, so why the fuss over republicans signing the bill?
The dems don't want ownership because they know it won't do anything to stimulate the economy; quite the opposite is true and they want to be able to spread the blame.
