To Hell with All of Them

The bill failed in the House 228 to 205. CNN estimates around 60% of Democrats voted for the bill, only 30% of Republicans. It's interesting that more Democrats are supporting a bill put forth by the President than the Republicans.

Republicans blame Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi for giving a "partisan" speech condemning Bush and his "failed economic policies" that they claim drove away some conservatives who would have otherwise voted in favor of the bill.

Meanwhile, the Dow plunged more than 700 points at the time I am writing this. There is talk of reintroducing the bill, but no earlier than Wednesday.

I am so sick of these people, these "representatives" and the partisan war they so relish waging. If they exerted half the effort they do in tearing each other apart into protecting our country, we'd likely not be in the mess we are today.

To hell with all of them.
