GOP Sen. Lisa Murkowski Joins The RINO Stampede in Opposing Ryan Budget Plan…

The herd is now complete.

(The Hill) — Five Republican senators jumped ship and voted against House Republicans’ 2012 budget on Wednesday.

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) joined four other Republican senators who’d previously announced their opposition to the budget, which has sustained withering criticism by Democrats who say it would end Medicare as Americans currently know it.

Sens. Scott Brown (R-Mass.), Susan Collins (R-Maine) and Olympia Snowe (R-Maine) voted against it as they’d previously said they would, largely because of the reforms contained within the budget to Medicare, transforming it into a voucher-based system for Americans under the age of 55.

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) also voted, as expected, against the plan because he views it as not going far enough.

    I don’t want to say I told you so but I told you last night in the O. Snowe thread she would be against it. And she is still a hag.

    Alaska deserves every bit of this they get for the next six years and more for voting this scrunt in.

    Unfortunately we all have to suffer for it too.

    Lisa has joined with them since she beat Miller…this is nothing new now, nor to be unexpected in the future.

    Her father has to be past disgusted with her at times…watched him to many years not to know different.

    Moo-kowski has officially joined the Maine sisters. Hope you’re proud, Sen. McConnell. You people are truly worthless when it comes to standing up for your country and citizens.

    Just effin’ stupid. Even if Brown and Collins (iirc) are up for re-election in primarily Blue states, how the hell can Murkowsi justify this stance?
    I mean, geebus, the United States Government hasn’t had a BUDGET in over 700 days now.
    Why doesn’t the not-so- Murky one propose a budget?Oh, wait, first she’d have to read the House Budget and that’s kinda like, ya know, work. And if its one thing Progressives HATE its work. That’s why they just keep throwing money at problems, no real work and you can tell yourself that lie that at least you tried to help the “little people, elderly and, of course, the children.”

    Little Rand Paul too clever by half showed his self-important ass by voting against a Bill that wasn’t going to pass in order to stand out. Well this little creep’s red ass is surely standing out what an ass-clown.

    The usual suspects. Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins voted for that phony stimulus bill that gave money to businesses that owed back taxes, and was never for creating jobs. They always help create the problems. I would bet they didn’t even read it. I think several of them are jealous of Paul Ryan. Scott Brown is a 25 watt bulb. They are socialists wearing the Republican label.

    It would behoove the “Senator” to stop using pictures taken outside her proctologists office. Try a new spot, try new photos, shut your enormous pie whole.

    I’m tellin’ you..
    Miller was a bit of an idiot for trying to cover up the mistakes he had made earlier on, had he just aired the sheets right at the beginning, Alaskan’s would have accepted it.
    Like I said, Alaska is the last bastion for failed Politicians, Lawyers and Doctors.
    We get a lot that move up here to make a fresh start where nobody knows them.
    Miller wasn’t one of those, but he made the mistake of trying to hide his screwups in a State with a population of about 250,000.
    I do not know every one of them, but I know someone from just about every town and village up here, and this whole State is just like a tiny little town, if I don’t know you, I know someone who does.
    Anyway, I voted for Joe regardless of his indiscretions which although they really made me hold my nose ( Like when he bought the poor man’s $5 hunting license reserved for those that are at or near poverty level , and sold to them at their word ) but others didn’t didn’t have the stomach for it.
    Who know, maybe it was for the best. Joe was caught red handed in a whole bag of lies, and a liar is a liar.
    So, Daddy’s Princess screwed us yet again. Alaska is turning blue due to all the free oil money, and everyone is in on it. Especially Sarah who single handedly screwed up the gas line when we had the window of opportunity. Sorry, it is just the truth. She gave a Canadian company $500,000,00o.00 to STUDY the job…and implemented ACES, Alaska’s Clear and Equitable Share… a tax hike on producers. The lure of easy money is killing our State. Our Politicians cannot control themselves. Spending is rampant as there is no State Income Tax, and nobody complains. When the easy oil money dries up, it is going to be the worlds biggest train wreck. Our per capita tax.. over $25,000.00 per head, all from big oil. And the Politicians are still partying like there is no tomorrow.
    We could fix it, but there is no will to do so. We have enough money to forward fund our State budget, the whole thing…on a hard number… but they won’t do it. They insist too on borrowing money??? Yep, they say it keeps our credit rating good. So we sell multi million dollar bonds that wind up costing us three times or more of face value… to preserve a credit rating we could care less about.
    Anyhow, that is the long and the short.
    Joe was an Idiot, but Lisa Sucks.

    Where’s the Dems budget?

    If these issues aren’t addressed, our children and grandchildren will be the ones tossed over the cliff – get a clue!! Enough with the snide remarks – please help our country!

    God bless America, Israel and our troops!

    I don’t understand why people call them conservatives.
    They may belong to the Repuclican party but they have never been “Conservative”, they have never supported any conservative values.
    The easist discribtion given is “RINO” that show party affiiation but allows them to continue being liberals in disguise.
    We should really consider removing them from the Republican party and get the Dims to remove their more rabid far lefters and let them create a “Socialist” party and it would not it easier to identify the adults from the large people.

    Rand Paul is also a RINO. He’s not a team player.

    You guys got your butts kicked in a GOP district two days ago. Why wouldn’t Murkowski vote with the RINOS. The Alaskan voters sent a clear message in December…they want a RINO…so stop whining and try to change the views of folks in NY-26 and in Alaska.
