Make sure less than 50% of House Democrats vote for the new bill.

Make it pass with 2 to 1 or 3 to 1 Republican votes.

2. They figure that will give cover to the 10 or 11 House Republicans they need...
And they can still count on the same number of Democratic yes votes...

Especially if Obama and Biden vote for it...

Right?

3. It's an even worse piece of trash. What a nerve! And it just keeps coming.
They are totally unrepentent for what they've caused. This is spitting in our faces. Screw them! No Dem at all, zero, should vote for this. If they do, they have no integrity whatsoever.

I'd much rather lose my 3rd job this year, than fold to this crap.

And my home too, for that matter. I'm serious.

4. Totally agree! Why are we saving George Bush's rear?
It's their fault, their problem, let THEM fix it, while we laugh on the sidelines.

6. Why don't you believe in global warming?
The bulk of those tax cuts go towards tax credits for alternative energy development.

So, why don't you want to do anything about global warming?

7. Passing this Bailout will insure that Alternate Energy, Healthcare Reform...
and Infrastructure Repair will never happen, whether Obama wins or not.

All of those programs will have been, as Grover Norquiest requested, drowned in the bathtub.
