Had he seen how bad it would be three months ago he probably would have lost the election because of his negative attitude!

This isn't a stimulas bill. It's a freakin spend fest . They are having a social program orgy on the backs of our children and using scare tactics to pass it.
I think there's a good amount of spending in the bill that's not necessary. That being said, according to the GOP anything that's not a tax cut is considered socialism.

So hundreds of Billions to banks with zero accountability is ok but if we give money to the working class and poor it's considered waste?

I think a month ago you agreed that we did need to stir both sides of the pot.

It looks like the Senate might have agreed to a compramise bill that's 42% tax cuts. If so that's a good thing, this needs to be a bi-partisan solution...that definately works in Obama's favor.
