House Republicans Want Stimulus Bill To Fail

How else do you explain the bragging by House GOP whip Eric Cantor that not one Republican voted for the stimulus package?  The blog on his website exults, “The House GOP is back.”

No House GOP Support for the Democrats’ Wasteful Spending Bill
Posted By Matt Lira :: February 13, 2009

The votes have been counted on H.R. 1 – the Democrats’ spending bill. It passed the House with no House GOP support.

Final Tally:

246 YES
183 NO
1 PRESENT

*** Seven Democrats Voted No ***

*** Not a Single Republican Voted Yes ***

UPDATE: Check out this fun, short video. The House GOP is back.

Oh yeah? Back how? By being “The Party of No”?  Cantor even went so far as to put together a video parodying the Aerosmith song “Back in the Saddle”.
