Yeah, all the GOP voted against the Stimulus plan.
But now they are bragging about the projects.
Hypocrites.

GOP lawmakers tout projects in the stimulus bill they opposed

WASHINGTON -- Rep. John Mica was gushing after the House of Representatives
voted Friday to pass the big stimulus plan.

"I applaud President Obama's recognition that high-speed rail should be
part of America's future," the Florida Republican beamed in a press
release.

Yet Mica had just joined every other GOP House member in voting against the
$787.2 billion economic recovery plan.

Republicans echoed their party line over and over during the debate: "This
bill is loaded with wasteful deficit spending on the majority's favorite
government programs," as Minority Whip Eric Cantor, R- Va. , put it.

But Mica wasn't alone in touting what he saw as the bill's virtues. Rep.
Don Young , R- Alaska , also had nice things to say in a press release.

Young boasted that he "won a victory for the Alaska Native contracting
program and other Alaska small business owners last night in H.R. 1, the
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act."
