Global Warming on the Right Side of the Blogosphere
The House GOP scuttles a vote on reducing spending after ripping out the ANWR and coastal drilling provisions.
Extending tax cuts gets no debate for now due to not enough GOP support.
And some in the Blogosphere are livid, including me.
Michelle Malkin has loads of angry letters here.
Here's a short roundup of Blogger reax:
Bulldog Pundit at Ankle Biting Pundits: "I swear to God, I'm going to go postal. I just can't take the stupidity of alleged Republican members of the US Senate. The frustration with this bunch is almost equal to the hopelessness and despair I feel as a Philadelphia sports fan."
Michelle Malkin: "Ugh. Just ugh."
Jayson at Polipundit: "I just want whatever they’re smoking over there."
Blanton at Red State: "This is a fight that the moderates cannot be allowed to win."
The Anchoress: "I can’t think of a single reason to vote to re-elect any one of you."
Neal Boortz: "Sounds like somebody faxed Howard Dean's talking points to Representative Bass' office by mistake."
Jeff Goldstein: "Today’s GOP: Just because we control Congress and the presidency doesn’t mean we’re too afraid to surrender!"
John Hawkins at Right Wing News: "Voting to allow drilling in ANWR should be the easiest decision the clowns up in Congress ever had to make -- and they still can't get it right. Pathetic, pathetic, pathetic..."
Mark Tapscott: "This one is going to spark more conservatives to throw up their hands and say "that's it, how do I change my registration to the Libertarian or Constitution party?""
Kevin Aylward of Wizbang: "The Republicans have only been in the majority 11 years, but in that time they've become every bit the disassociated fat cats that Tip O'Neil and his crew were."
Kate O'Beirne at The Corner: "Another Revolution Betrayed"
Robert Bidinotto: "Not a damned thing distinguishes the Republicans from the Democrats anymore...not a damned thing."
And I agree with all of them. I'll try and add some more later.
Update: Here's a couple more:
RightWingSparkle: "Why are Republicans such wimps and compromisers when they are in power?"
Aaron at Lifelike Pundits: "I smell another crackdown coming."
