Pelosi rats flee

Blame fleeing rats
Democrats bail on Pelosi

Here's the final roll call vote for Pelosi's bailout.  Democrats did not need a single Republican vote to pass this thing, but got 65.  So why did it fail?  Ninety-five Democrats voted NO.  (Here's the state-by-state)

ASIDE: I notice that several actual commies were among democrat Nay sayers (Abercrombie, Shelia Jackson-Lee, Kucinich).  I'm guessing  they were afraid the damn thing might actually work, and save the country.

Same thing happened over the amnesty thing, their inboxes got so jammed with pitchforks and torches they didn't see half of the outrage. This close to an election, they are paying more attention to us.

I doubt emails ever even get to a human.

2 of my 3 voted no. 1 dem 1 repub.

1 repub yes.

weirder yet, the dem is Shelley Berkeley, a party wench always. I have the feeling this was rigged so they could blame the repubs when things go to poop. I don't believe the bailout would work anyway. There are numbers like $100 trillion going around for the global loss and this wouldn't dent it. Sure, it would make happy on wall street for a little while and then I think everything would just tank. The near future looks a wee bit bleak. Gotta go buy a Ruger10/22 for squirrels and rabbit soon.

John Hinderaker over at PowerLine suggests that it was a partisan setup that failed. San Fran Nan is about to get herself ripped a new colon.

The link to House vote 674 says:

"To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to provide earnings assistance and tax relief to members of the uniformed services, volunteer firefighters, and Peace Corps volunteers, and for other purposes"

WTF?

I'm confused. Is it really as screwed up as it seems. If it is where are the grown ups who will get serious and actually work to address the problem for the good of our country?

I'm confused.

Nancy now has the failed bill as cover and an issue that is working for her in the polls. Later, with help from her friends in the media, she can bring up a bill worse than the Dodd scheme and pass it on party lines.

Some day we may wished we had ordered that crap sandwich with a side of flies.
