Mr. Stimulus

That title belongs to Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio), who seems all but certain to be the crucial 60th vote in favor of the stimulus package. Ted Kennedy didn't vote, Judd Gregg voted no, and the GOP's three moderates -- Susan Collins, Arlen Specter, and Olympia Snowe -- held firm behind the bill. Feeling stimulated yet?

but don't worry, the coming war in the Mideast will take our minds off the economy.

Shame on the RINO's for voting with the dummocrats. Stimulus was a big mistake. I don't understnd how the time to vote was suspended for such a long time. If you are there you vote, if not you don't. Isn't there a cutoff time for getting your vote in????

I am proud that Gregg turned down commerce. Good for him.
