Here is video of Sen. Jim DeMint speaking to the Heritage Foundation today, saying that he is convinced President Obama's Administration is seeking to create widespread "crisis" and "panic" in order to force Congress to act quickly on Obama's Economic Stimulus Plan. DeMint is trying to get the word out to Americans about what is actually in the Stimulus Plan, which he says in no way resembles the stated goals of the plan. . . . . . . (watch video)

The Marxist DemocRATS have nothing left to offer but FEAR itself.
Gloom and doom is all we’re hearing out of these lowlife bass turds. If that’s “hope” and “change”, they can shove it.

Whoa it's been a really long long time since government officials created an air of panic to pass through bad legislation.

Why we'd have to go back all the way to last December to remember a time when the panic level was raised to the level it's currently at.

Good for Sen. DeMint. He has been one of the few Senate conservatives who have found their voice (and their spine).

Can someone please explain to me how it is that the notable Jim DeMint and the execrable Lindsey Grahamnesty can both come from the same honorable Southern state?

I don’t know how Graham could possibly be cut from the same cloth, but time to send DeMint another letter of support!

Can’t they get this doo-doo bill printed simply, in plain English? Like:

1. Spend ____________ for ACORN
2. Spend____________ to fund abortions
3. Spend ___________ to aid Hamas?
4. Spend ___________ for Nancy’s birth control
5. Spend ___________ for new buses in New Orleans

You know, important, Liberal stuff.

Grahanmnesty got his name in the impeachement of Clinton and is now apparently locked in as was his predecessor, Fritz Hollings. BOTH play(ed) the game of being a damned liberal and then right before the election they become “conservative.” There's plenty of rumors that Grahamnesty has a live-in boyfriend. He appears to try to keep much in the closet but some of it oozes out occaisionally.

DeMint might want to have somebody else start his car every morning. And taste his food. The Faithful don’t take kindly to resistance to Glorious Leader’s Shining Change Path.

‘Rats are also trying to set the stage for the push to hang the financial crisis around the Republicans’ necks - saw some ‘rat congressman on C-Span a few minutes ago talking about the “Bush meltdown” - so predictable.....

“Why we’d have to go back all the way to last December”

And long ago before that way back in late October and early November....

It is so scary now, I can barely stand the upcoming suspense of next month...
