Boehner to GOP: Vote against stimulus - Patrick O’Connor - Politico.com

President Barack Obama is coming to the Capitol later today in a bid to curry favor with congressional Republicans. But it appears GOP leaders have already made up their minds to oppose his $825 billion stimulus plan.

House Republican Leader John A. Boehner and his No. 2, Whip Eric Cantor, told their rank-and-file members Tuesday morning during a closed-door meeting to oppose the bill when it comes to the floor Wednesday, according to an aide familiar with the discussion.

Good. Force them to pass it with their “I Won ™” majority. Don’t give them an ounce of cover. This lefty “stimulus” porkerama is a disaster. Let’s make sure Obama and the Democrats own every bit of it.

    Well, they really needed the administration not to be run by a Republican don’t-tax-but-borrow-and-spend-anyway fiscal liberal. (And I don’t care for Obama, but good riddance, W.)
