The Christian Coalition of America will be rewarding those 28 Democrats -- who joined every single Republican in the House of Representatives voting yesterday -- with a positive score in its next Christian Coalition of America Congressional Scorecard regarding the bloated and pork-filled Omnibus money bill the House Democrats passed by a margin of 221-202 (with one Democrat voting president, ala state senator Barack Obama who voted present numerous times worried about his political viability if he took a position on many issues; 7 Democrats and 3 Republicans did not vote.)
Voting for this gigantic spending bill is an absolute disgrace besides the fact that provisions in the bill attack the American family and our culture. The official name of the bill is the "Consolidated Appropriations Act for FY 2010," H.R. 3288. The reason the Democrats call it a "consolidated" spending bill or an "omnibus" spending bill is that they could not get their job done, as they promised they would, repeatedly, during the 2006 and 2008 campaigns. They got only 5 of the 12 spending bills signed into law this year, a record worse than most Republican Congresses.
