First big vote and he crushes a GOP fillibuster

He voted for the jobs bill.

Check any newspapers/news sites today for something called the Obama Jobs Bill

The usual few also voted for this waste of tax dollars

Everyone admits employers do not make hiring decisions based on small one time tax breaks yet they just want to give them the money anyway?

Joining Brown in voting to break the filibuster were two moderate New England Republicans, Sens. Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins of Maine, and two retiring GOP senators, Kit Bond of Missouri and George Voinovich of Ohio. Democrat Ben Nelson of Nebraska voted "nay" and Frank Lautenberg, D-N.J., was absent.

From his Facebook Site:
“I came to Washington to be an independent voice, to put politics aside, and to do everything in my power to help create jobs for Massachusetts families. This Senate jobs bill is not perfect. I wish the tax cuts were deeper and broader, but I am voting for it because it contains measures that will help put people back ...to work. ... I hope for improvements in that process going forward.”

Maybe he wants to get his cut early before he has to run in the general election.

IMO it was a good decision to support a “Focused” job bill. Do we really need to rehash the stimulus details (Waste) to understand the difference?:huh:

The guy didn't campaign as a party loyalist. He apparently voted as he believes his contituents desire, ie... in their best interests.

Now if NJ or PA had people in the Senate that worked that way we would all be better off.

If the GOP was successful in the fillibuster you'd have 10 threads on here congratulating them.

There's nothing good in this bill, it's a waste of 15 billion. Employers don't hire anyone because of a one time tax break of a few thousand. They hire people when the work load demands it.

The 15 billion will be spent on companies hiring anyway and on fraud.
