Pretty sure that Ben Nelson from Nebraska (D) has his phone lit up like a Christmas tree. I couldn’t get in earlier so I emailed him.

“McCain: I’ll name names! I’ll make them famous!

Wouldn’t it be ironic if he was one of the “gang of three”? “

Snowe has to be in there. McCain’s campaign, when it was flat broke, contributed to her campaign.

If I were Steele I would call the 3 suspects up and tell them that support would go to another candidate in the primary, and even if they won their primaries, he would make certain they lose. Rather have an enemy you know that a scumbag you can’t trust.

OMG, this is insane. I am filled with outrage on this TRAVESTY of a bill. What can I do!?

Well. How bout this: Next to nothing until 2010 and 2012.

Consider for a moment that the reason you feel helpless is....because the only time we have a chance to choose the fork in the road with our hellbound handcart is at the friggin fork in the road (aka the elections.)

The GOp has some culpability for only giving us McLib to choose from. Yeah? But it also gave us Palin. BTW, did you ever hear a word one from Sarah Palin before McCain pulled her out of obscurity and put her on the stage? Do you think she'd be on national TV and books right now without McQueeg-the-RINO setting her up?

Do you think the conservapurists would've done anything to bring her to the stage or would they just keep whining about poor Duncan Hunter got cheated.

DAMMIT. I'm sorry to rant in your direction as I wrote this same response the similar exasperation on another thread, but MAYBE CONSERVATIVES WILL TAKE THE ELECTION SERIOUSLY NEXT TIME.

Stands to reason. We have been watching them for a few days pussy footing around!

We need to demand that the RNC and the voters throw them to the curb next time they are up for re-election!

The Chairman will get a letter from me saying no money for the RNC until they not only prove they are conservative, but until they tar, feather and remove ANY RINO that supports this sh!t sandwich.

Stimulating Toomey
Mark Hemingway
With Specter expected to cave on the stimulus bill, I'm hearing from GOP Senate sources that forces are already gathering to push Pat Toomey into the 2010 Pennsylvania Senate race against Specter.

>> Pinging Chairman Steele THROW THE BUMS THAT VOTE FOR THIS BILL OUT OF THE PARTY...

Steele will do no such thing. The RNC will continue to shovel money at anything willing to wear an “R” by its name, that they think could possibly win. Regardless of how it actually votes.

If you’re a conservative challenger to a RINO incumbent, however... don’t expect a nickel from the Chamber of Commerce oops I mean RNC.

...that won’t include any of my money, however...

Just remember that number. Throw it at every liberal that says "Well it was bipartisan" ...

Anyone with a shred of integrity will acknowledge that it's not. Anyone that won't ... is an enemy.

We should call up Steele today and tell him to get the message to them(since they are not answering their phones)

McCain is not one of them this time. He was talking on the Senate floor a few minutes ago, saying that the gang of 18 consists of 15 dims and 3 Repubs. Didn’t name names though

Republicans HAVE to ditch any turncoats on this. Yell loud and clear, over and over, that we don’t even consider them Republicans after this. That the Republicans completely reject this bill and the ones who joined to vote for it are to be considered Democrats for all intents and purposes.

CUT THEM LOOSE!! LOUD AND CLEAR!

I will BET you that Steele does just that! He fired all of the RNC staff when he took over.....I think he knows this is WAR!

I’m fed up! Let’s call them the notorious Gang of Four. Traitors all. Snowe, Collins, Specter, Lugar. Bastards!

I am so disgusted by this bill. I am just speechless. This just goes against every once of my common sense and intelligence. How can they peddle this crap and sit there smiling about it?

OMFG, this is just soooo beyond me. We need to do protests like those libtards do. We need to take to streets, Repubs never do those things. We demand action on this!

Can somebody point me in the direction of who I can call, something?

I live in San Diego,Ca if that helps.

One question: Why did they have to “make a deal”. Hell, they have got the votes! This is BS, pure and simple.

Someone please correct me if I am wrong...but I don't think they do. I believe you need 60 votes to bring it to a vote. They don't have 60 votes without a GOP or two crossing over to allow it.
