This is what White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs had to say about it.

“I do believe that there will be people in districts all over the country that will wonder why, when there’s a good bill to get the economy moving again, why we still seem to be playing political gotcha,” Gibbs said.

First of all, thank god someone is doing their jobs protecting the tax payers from corrupt tyrants.

Second, wtf is this “political gotcha”. What exactly are the dems trying to put over on us that the republicans are getting them on? I smell a rat, and I don’t like it one bit.

MoveOn has plans to start an ad campaign to squelch political dissent to the Democrats plans.

I have to say I respect the Republicans for finally taking a stand on something. Of course the Dems don’t need the Republican vote to pass a damned thing, so what does it matter.  We are going to see a huge propaganda campaign against any politician that doesn’t tow the party line.  I’m furious.

The perfect storm is here, batten down the hatches.
