This from the Rude Pundit at walled-in-pond.
Repugnican "class warfare."
The so-called "centrists" had no problem supporting:
1. AIG bailout - c. $85 million
2. Citibank bailout - c. $45 billion
3. Bank of America bailout - c. $45 billion (with guarantees on $118 billion in loans)
4. Bush overpayment of $78 billion for bailed-out bank assests.
The so-called "centrists" couldn't find it in their heart to support the following stimulus bill items:
1. Head Start - $1 billion
2. Funds to cover state education shortfalls - $24.8 billion
3. Additional funding for state education - $15 billion
4. Child Development Block Grants - $2 billion
5. Programs in the Violence Against Woman Act - $150 million
Hypocrisy really "R" Repugnicans.
