U.S.: Republicans ticked about Dems’ spending bill; Dems pass it anyway
- It is business as usual, spending money like a drunken sailor, and the bar is still open.
- Sen. John McCain • On the latest spending bill passed tonight. The Senate pushed it through with little Republican support and lots of Republican whining. The $447 billion omnibus spending bill, with lots of Democratic earmarks, hits Obama’s desk next, but not without lots of political ammo for the GOP to bring into the 2010 election season. source
