Jobs bill, infrastructure repair and bank 51-47 Senate vote

[Riot]

Part of the Rebuild America Jobs Act, containing Republican proposals of $10 billion to establish an infrastruture bank, and the Republican proposal of $50 billion in immediate job creation funding for roads, bridges and airport construction projects, Constitutionally passed by a majority vote of 51-47 today in the Senate.

However, as the Republicans are filibustering every single thing the Democrats try and pass, just because they want the Democrats and Obama to fail, this bill failed as it didn't get 60 votes to overcome cloture.

Way to go, Republican party! including members Ben Nelson and Joe Lieberman. What a disaster, what a useless mess, what a shame on this country, this political party has become.
