This evening the House passed their Piggy Bank of Pet Projects. The vote will be reported by the MSM, in a derisive way, as mostly party line. As we’ve become accustomed to Republicans being the ones to cross the line I have to admit surprise to see that all House Republicans, along with 11 Democrats, voted against laying nearly $1 trillion of additional debt on our children for the actual purpose of increasing the size, scope and run rate of the Federal beuracracy and budget!
This was a principled stance and one the Rs should have been following the past few years. Who knows, if they had, the public may not have become enamored with what in only 8 short days, has proven to be anything but hopeful or change!
Hats off and thanks to all 188 who voted against this porker!
Now, off to the Senate. What’s the over/under on the number of spines that will be displayed in that chamber?
