  • REID HAS ENOUGH VOTES FOR MONEY PACKAGE: Harry Reid claims that he has enough votes to pass the stimulus package tonight, so some stuff will probably be “scrubbed.” Nevertheless, Reid is saying insane things, because he likes to do that: “They cannot hold the president of the United States hostage.” Who, like the terrorists? Good heavens! Wait, weren’t we talking about construction jobs or some shit? [Bloomberg, CNN]

You know, I moved to Maryland 15 years ago, and for a long time I was baffled by all the advertisements for “package goods”. So I’ve had a good long head start on ‘package’ jokes, and honestly, I’m burned out. Can we move on to something else now?

Oh well, if Reid says it’s so then it must not be anywhere near the truth. Him and Nancy are about as useless as a book in Bible Spice’s house.

Harry, please see your doctor. If you railroad the Republicans on this one, you might be in danger of growing a testicle.

Not the terrorists, the Republicans. No, the Taliban. Shit.

[re=237268]Texan Bulldoggette[/re]: A book might be able to prop up a crooked table. What could Reid and Nancy do?

Repugs = Taliban, Dems = Keystone Cops

Well you HAVE TO respect what the republicans are saying, after seeing how well they did in the last election, Harry…no, wait.

Oh, so it’s REID who has the huge package. Wait, what?

Terrorists also need jobs!

[re=237297]AngryBlakGuy[/re]: …and then got “scrubbed”.

Just as long as I get my shovel-ready job as a raccoon wrangler or faith-based tax adviser or some such.

Why bother to put anything in the stimulus package at all? 90% of the money is going to the same shit sack of govie programs it always goes to. In this case, the States will take the money, and use it to offset State tax support, for a net gain of zero jobs.

How about, instead of the Bush-style frog-march, the Honorable Senators actually think of something new that would have a chance of becoming a real job supported in the future by customers who pay money for the service or product? So far today, the best idea was development of the braille porn industry. Of course, I can’t define it, but I know it when I feel it.

Jesus, can someone ball gag that guy? I can just see some anthropomorphic representation of Karma (probably George Burns dressed up like Buddha) standing behind Harry Reid as he says he has the votes and chuckling to itself as it says, “Oh, you think you have the votes do ya?”

This news, if true, makes the Hopey Lover in me think this whole past week has been nothing but his usual rope-a-dope strategy and was intentintionally done just to give enough rope for the Republicans to come out looking like the asshats they are. And thus, revealed as such, he can then steamroll them and usher in the socialist muslim revolution that we were all promised.

No; Repugs = Taliban, Blue Dogs = child-molesting Al Qaeda coprophages.

Perhaps the first time Reid and “money package” have been invoked simultaneously. Another in a string of firsts.
