Stimilius bill negotiated by 4 republicans and one Democrat?

[itsrobert]

According to CSPAN...

Collins (R) Snowe (R) Spector (R) Lieberman (R) and Nelson (D)

Didn't the Democrats win the last election?

1. Ironically, of the 5, Snowe is the most trustworthy.

[w4rma]

4. No she's not. She's no "moderate" and this proves it. (nt)

[FLAprogressive]

9. Yes she is. She's probably the most liberal of the 4.

[w4rma]

11. Sure. That's why she's gutting education. (nt)

2. Nelson (D-Zell Miller)

I keep trying to place him in my memory of Democrats, but can't.

[stillcool]

3. holy fuck...this is total bullshit...

the Democrats need to filibuster!!

[elleng]

5. Don't think so.

Ben Nelson, D. lieb is not r but I. (Rahm was over there today, in a conference with dems. don't know how that fit in.) its clear lieb is taking dems part in this.

6. Bullcrap: Lieberman is a Republican

as far as I'm concerned and an opportunist along with a cutthroat dick head.

[elleng]

7. I agree with cutthroat opportunist;

domestic dem tho.

8. If this stretches into the weekend, I have a hard time imagining that the liberal Dem's will allow

themselves to be rolled by this group of hacks. If Kennedy comes into town, if Biden is back early next week, they will have fewer pukes to rely on. This wondrous quintet or, "job squad," as Nelson so ironically named them should hardly be dictating to the Dem's how things will or will not work.

10. I count five republicans, no democrats.
