Like Sheep, GOPers Follow Limbaugh's Stimulus Opposition

The word is the stimulus vote will take place in the senate on Tuesday. Whether that happens or not, I have no clue. Half of what's going on in Washington right now I have no clue. But one thing is certain is that the Republican Party is probably going to offer at best 3-4 votes in favor of the bill. After taking their cue from , a man who has to know more about stimulating things than anyone on earth, the Republican Party and its devout followers want America to believe that they are truly the ones who know how to fix the economy.

Yes, that's right. The Party that presided over that last 8 years of total failure, the Party that took the largest surplus in history and turned it into the largest deficit in history, the Party that passed more pork-barrel spending than any in history, the Party that stood firmly behind and exalted the presidency of George W. Bush, wants us all to believe that the stimulus bill is nothing but pork and that Rush Limbaugh knows, now that he's out of rehab, exactly how to solve the current crisis.

After 8 years of never once opposing a spending bill by their Grand Leader, after 8 years of never once caring about fiscal matters, after 8 years of doing nothing but making government bigger, they want us all to believe that they are fiscal conservatives who care about government growing too big. They line up behind their ideological and moral leader and drug dealer, Rush Limbaugh, call it "porkulus" and claim they and only they know what's best for the country.

They are sheep and their policies have failed this country. Giving them any sort of credence now is irresponsible and a disgrace to the historical Democratic victories in November.
