Shorter of the Day

John Cole wraps up the last six thousand years' past week or so's proceedings on the stimulus bill:

Obama: Hey guys, we could really use your help.

Wingnuts: Go jump in a lake, Messiah!

Pelosi: This isn’t about party, it’s about people.

Wingnuts: Did you guys hear something? A cackling noise?

Reid: We’ve got 3 votes! Can I get four? Bueller? Bueller?

Snowe: It’s no use, guys. Why don’t we go ahead and get this done tonight.

Wingnuts: Tough talk, but you’ll come crawling back to us tomorrow.

(The next day)

Wingnuts: Why weren’t we consulted? This is an outrage!! Wait until Rush hears about this!!

The only reason I'm not completely LOLing is that I'm pretty sure the Villagers will take the last line to heart and repeat it incessantly, completely forgetting how things were just two House terms ago.
