Well, it isn't much of a consolation, but looks like the Republicans stood united again. Picked up a couple of Dems too.

Was anyone else listening/watching it?

I was practically yelling at my computer screen anytime a Dem got up to the microphone.

One even had the audacity to say he knows what EVERY SINGLE American wants, and it's for them to vote for the stimulus bill. Disgusting...

The poor Republicans are totally getting strongarmed. The Republicans wanted to delay the vote because none of them received a copy of the bill in writing, which they should have received within 48 hours. Yea, that was shot down by the Dems in no time. Was so hard for me to listen to....

Boy, the Dubya Dynasty has created Vindictive Monsters on the other side of the aisle, eh? The Socialist Party was bad enough before, but now they are taking a chapter out of Dubya's Legacy of complete control/power.

That Wisconsin Democrat, Representative David R. Obey (D - WI)... absolutely annoying to listen to... he speaks like he has Sticky Peanut butter in his mouth and foam at the ends of his mouth. I wonder if this newly revised, 11th hour modified bill has those Big funds for his son, who's at the Department of Interior?

As much as I can't stand Mike Pence (R-IN), he summed it up best: The only thing this Bill will Stimulate are; Big Government and the National Debt.

Watching the house today was like 2 different governments underminding one another at the expense of the people. SO SAD
