It's very obvious that the Republicans (except for 3) are obstructionists and are NOT voting for the very people who put them if office. Instead they are voting as some kind of "elite club" instead of offering INTELLIGENT solutions. Reports are numerous about the threats against them if they vote for the stimulus package. And it's obvious when the vote as a "block" that they don't think for themselves or the citizens of each state.
And what did McCain have to offer? Start over! Good God, no wonder he lost the election! After all the work Congress and the administration put into this bill ever since November...start over is his answer? McCain still doesn't use his God-given brain to come up with anything new.
The Repubs want big tax cuts for big business to create jobs? Get real...if the consumer doesn't have the money to buy the products and services, it is certainly bad business practice to expand when there's no one to buy. So the only ones who would benefit would be CEO pay...certainly not the average consumer or worker.
Watch Eric Cantor of Virginia. He thinks he's leading some kind of "gang" instead of acting like a Congressman who cares about the citizens. Are all Republicans just in Washington to play a game or will they EVER actually work for the voters who put them there? I doubt it.

Scroll down this link to find who is running for re-election in your state in 2010. If your Republican Senator or Representative isn't going to work for you but rather just for the Party and threats of the GOP PAC monies, then you need to check out other parties and candidates.Congress members are supposed to be working for US not play stupid James Bond games...a waste of our tax dollars for sure.
