UPDATE: Wingnut Rep. Putnam just admitted he has not memorized The Book of Matthew...(the part of the Bible w/ that whole camel through the eye of a needle thing)
UPDATE: That Bitch Rep. Marsha Blackburn is trying to speak. Her voice is cracking...elmo is getting into her head...
UPDATE: Senate hero's are dragging wingnuts into voting HELL...one...after...another...
UPDATE: Wingnut Rep. Jim Nussle just reminded us that Republicans have not raised taxes...on the rich...

UPDATE: Senator Kerry still wears pink ties!
UPDATE: Hero Rep. Richard Neal just earned his bitchslapper merit badge!
UPDATE: The Senate is still considering 60$ billion in federal tax cuts...for the rich. The hero's are still dragging them down. This could take all night.

Elmo is fading fast...will watch...but can't type any longer... VOTE NO ON THIS BUDGET!

The overall budget passed by 2 votes after Hastert made major concessions to get dissenting Republicans to vote yes. All Dems voted NO. House-Senate compromise to be hashed out next month.

Woo-hoo! Wake up, buttercup. We won, they lost; Dems voted unanimously, with 20 or so Pubs crossing the aisle.
Booyakasha!
Yeeeehawwww!
Wow. That's fantastic.(!)
Remember when W. won a year ago and said that he earned some political currency and said, "I'm going to spend it."
He's in trouble.
Oh, snap.
Was lovely while it lasted, tho'.
