Hypocrisy Alert: 71 House Republicans Take Credit for the Economic Bills They Opposed

Welcome to the Hypocrisy Hall of Fame!The DCCC has kept a House Republicans Hypocrisy Hall of Fame, which has now grown to over 70 Members. These Republicans have been caught trying to celebrate the benefits of projects they opposed in President Obama's recovery bill, the 2009 Omnibus Appropriations bill, and the Omnibus Public Land Management Act.

It's bad enough House Republicans want to go back to the Bush Administration policies responsible for the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression, but they’ve also tried to get away with taking credit for the economic benefits in their districts they tried to prevent. House Republicans need to immediately let their constituents know the truth – will they come out in favor of canceling funding in their congressional districts from President Obama’s economic recovery policies or will they continue taking credit for jobs and local projects they fought against?

Welcome to the Hypocrisy Hall of Fame!

I think there is a video with a lot of Congressmen passing out Stimulus money they voted against.

  1. They should be ashamed of themselves, bad bad bad Republicans. It's bad enough that Democrats take credit for these bills. Before you know it, Independents will want to take credit for them too.

    I think Obama, the republicans, democrats, independents should all hide in shame or change their names so we won't know who they are.

    Lets all vote for tea party people, they aren't taking credit for anything.

    I was against the stimulus money but I would gladly accept some of it. Where's the line start at? Call me a hypocrit cause sticks n stones will break my bones, but names like hypocrit will never hurt me.
