The RINOS caved - AGAIN - and accepted a reduction in tax cuts from 40% to 32% of the Porkapalooza bill - something they said they would NOT do...

One should expect nothing more from those three, particularly the nominal male of the miserable trio, a shameless serial changeling who has spent his entire life doing what is best for him. The GOP can either cast itself as irretrievably spineless or it can cut these toads loose and let them fend for themselves amongst their Democrat friends.

Kids: do not hold your breath waiting for the latter.

Collins, Specter and Snowe (RINO’s all) should be removed from office at the next available opportunity and replaced with conservatives. They have no business supporting this pork-filled Dem wish list of spending.

but who runs against them?

I don’t know, I’m asking the question. If there are no viable candidates to challenge them, then they are re-elected for lack of anything better.

That’s the trouble with this party. We have exactly NO ONE who is willing to lead. We do not find candidates who are willing and able to win. They run scared.

I live in NW IL. In my area Dems run virtually unopposed on most tickets. It’s pathetic. So, for people like me, the only option is to leave it blank.

“they’re doing us a favor by “only” spending $789 Billion.”

We’re drowning, so they take their foot off our heads and hand us an anvil.

Snow’s principles ARE socialist.

Why do you think otherwise?

Better to phone her and tell her to watch her back....she just STOLE A TRILLION DOLLARS FROM HER FELLOW CITIZENS.

This is nothing compared to what is to come. Be assured the Dems are working on all kinds of bills to rape us further. It will come in the form of taxes and fees....Tax on everything and fee increases like crazy. We’re scr****.

They took the bacon from the House Bill, and the ham from the Senate Bill.

Collins, Snowe and Specter, please tell me that there seats are toast next time around!!!

I'm sure the democrat caucus offered them each an opportunity to recover their political prospects by providing an opportunity for them to look like tough conservatives on some future meaningless bill. No doubt there are three more RINOs waiting in the wings for the next boondoggle coming down the pike.

If there's any justice in the world Maine and Pennsylvania voters will not be made fools of.

It’s a real shame that I can look at a picture of two human beings and want so much to destroy them.

They have NO IDEA what they’ve done, but they will soon enough.

I hope on the other side of that door is an enormous banana pill that leaves em both on their asses.

We do not matter, BECAUSE THEY DO NOT FEAR US.

Why should they when the "lesser of two evils" philosophy permeates the Republican party and even here at FR.

If a conservative could win....they would run one against them.

A conservative CANNOT win.

The people WANT gov cks, the WANT pmt for healthcare, college, pensions, the WANT gov giving them jobs, they WANT gov telling their employers to give them PAID 4 wks vac, sick days, etc.

We are but a small minority of patriots left in this country.
