Reply #14: I disagree. I think the Dems did an asbyssmal job communicating what they did. [View All]

for whatever reason. They have left the GOP say whatever they wanted. If this had not been in the bill, they would have twisted something else. They did not want to sign this bill, period.

BTW, these are GOP talking points that your friends hear. This is the point. The GOP has been saying that throughout the last two days. The Dems have not explained why it belonged in the bill (it creates jobs among other things). But, if you think the GOP would not have found something else, you are mistaken. They did not use the S word because of these projects. They used it because it gives money to poor people.
