GOP politicians are blatant liars and hypocrites. They tell their constituents back home how the stimulus helps them and try to take credit for it, while they vote and rail against it in DC. They KNOW the stimulus creates jobs and helps Americans who are hurting because THEY SAY THAT TO THEIR VOTERS BACK HOME. But they vote against it for pure political reasons.

Yes all pols "grab loot and buy votes," but the GOP are playing both sides of the field. DO NOT DENY IT OR AVOID THE POINT. They vote against it and then claim credit for it! Why? Because they can get away with it! How do they do that? They know the people who vote for them are mostly uninformed of what they are really doing.

Btw, the Washington TIMES is a right wing rag. The left wing rag in the Washington Post.
