Senate Republicans say NO to the Jobs Bill! NO to using $30B from TARP for small business loans.

[flpoljunkie]

Led by New Hampshire's Judd Gregg, they want to use any leftover TARP money to pay down the debt. Now that's truly rich from the party who ran up such a huge debt with Bush's two unpaid for tax cuts, two unfunded wars, and an unpaid prescription drug benefit.

"Just Say No" is not going to work forever--unless the Democrats let them get away with it!

1. How on EARTH do they justify this to their constituents? Granted, paying down

the debt is of great importance, but so is helping people find jobs! What asses.

[glitch]

10. They have demonstrated time and again they couldn't care less about their constituents.

Not even justifying themselves to them. Everything is all about not letting Obama appear to have a win.

Plus you can make a lot of money in a Depression if you are positioned properly.

[DrToast]

2. But don't they think tax cuts pay for themselves?

[babylonsister]

3. Rec'd for visibility. The Dems need to scream this from the

mountaintops! This is totally unacceptable. :grr:

[flpoljunkie]

6. Absolutely. Now's the time. A perfect opportunity, it would seem.

[truedelphi]

8. After watching the Democrats and their leadership

Somehow arrive at a situation wherein sixty votes were necessary for any actions to take place, I won't be surprised if somehow this year they will need seventy!

Let's face it - most in Washington work for the same Corporate Masters. Our legislators need to appease the Puppet Masters whether they have a "D" or an "R" after their name. The only way the Dems can succeed in this apeasement is to pretend that all the organized chaos created by the minority party is a much stronger force than it really is.

4. Gregg is an ass- I can't wait till he's out,

and intend to work to be sure he's replaced with Paul Hodes.

I think your thread title should be a talking point for us, they said "NO to the Jobs Bill"!
NO to supporting Small Businesses.

:hi:

[liberal N proud]

5. Well of course they did

They are the Party of NO!

Obama needs to tell the unemployed of this nation that the republicans just told them NO!

[cascadiance]

7. The Party of NO and the Blue Dogs are at it again!

[butterfly77]

16. and Evan Bayh...

his ass needs to be protested every day!!!

[lsewpershad]

9. Our President

is doing everything he can to bring about change and do what is best for all. I hope the other dems we voted for grow some " cojones" to work with him and defeat the party of NO.

[safeinOhio]

11. Idiots

Use the money the small businesses pay back the loans from the money that is payed back from the TARP loans to pay back the loans called the National debt. You get to add all the interest on the final pay back. Bookkeeping 101.

[DrToast]

12. Meanwhile, expect the Dems to keep their mouths shut

WTF is going on?

Can we really be this incompetent?

[uponit7771]

13. ...meanwhile democrats will gladly accept blame by being quite

[gkhouston]

14. Ah, so *this* is why the President is having a Q&A with the Senate Dems tomorrow.

I think line-in-the-sand time has arrived.

[cutlassmama]

17. One can only hope

[butterfly77]

15. These are some of the biggest damn hypocrite liars!!

Why is Gregg so hyper? Why do the repubs protect wallstreet,corporations and others against WE THE PEOPLE?

Why does Gregg think we have no say in the matter? Are these new things in the budget cutting into all of the money they Bush and Friends stole?

They don't give a damn about the deficit!!!
