Who'da thunk it? The Republicans in the House united to kill the "stimulus" bill. Oops... they found their stones only a few months late. Maybe if they had had the guts to do this last fall we would be dealing with this crisis and a Congress and President determined to make it worse!
But fear not, we can stop it with a filibuster in the Senate, right?? Au Contraire! You forget the quality of geniuses we put there. Does anyone really believe that George "don't make me cry anymore" Voinovich and Olympia "I thought Republican was Greek for Socialist" Snowe and the other RINOs in the swamp will actually do anything different from what they have done over the past 10 years?
Regrettably, the "slippery slope" to socialism and the destruction of the American economy has now become a $2 Trillion cliff that we are approaching at warp 6. I have little faith in Voinovich, Snowe, et.al. being able (or even trying) to keep us from rushing straight to hell.
It is a very sad time in America.
