Holy Moly!  Looks like the GOP has a spokesman, at least for now and that voice is coming out of your closest radio……and it sounds a lot like Rush!  Actually it is kinda sad that the best the GOP can do is Rush.

The GOP in Washington has issued a memo telling its members to vote no on the stimulus plan and that was before they met with the pres who was there to hear their concerns.  Sounds like the bi-partisanship is all but dead, huh?

Congressional Republicans face the tough task of opposing an economic stimulus plan proposed by President Obama – without opposing Obama himself.

So expect the GOP to heap plenty of blame on the congressional Democrats who authored the legislation while shielding the popular new president from any of the mud slung at his allies.

It helps that most Republicans genuinely dislike the initial draft offered by Democrats in the House, an $825 billion combination of spending and tax cuts that seeks to boost funding for programs long ignored by President Bush.

House Republican Leader John A. Boehner (Ohio) complains that the plan “spends too much and spends it too late,” citing a preliminary readout by the Congressional Budget Office that shows very little money will be spent in the first six or so months after enactment.  “Spends it too late”?  See these guys are hypocrites they do not want to spend ANY money at any time and now they are bitch that it should have been spent earlier.  They have NO clue how to fix the situation, but they will oppose a democratic approach at any cost, including the total destruction of the very fabric of American society.

But you know these GOP guys are not leaders, they are just front men.  A leader would be offering viable alternatives instead of trotting out the dusty crap of the past, tax cuts and the like.
