They why is he so surprised at how rapidly the economy is falling apart? Why didn't he see this 3 months ago when he was pushing the Democrats last bailout? Maybe the team isn't that good

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.

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

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.
