    As long as everyone still sees this as a Republican v Democrat issue there's nothing we can do about it. The stimulus is just a smokescreen to get attention away from the bailout.

    If they were really serious they would just give a million dollars to everyone to go stimulate the economy with. That'll fix it. Watch that GDP soar.

    Better yet, ban cash so they can have their negative interest rates.

    I haven't been keeping score in here but, have any Obama supporters expressed their regret for putting that idiot in office?

    I know my neighbor pulled off his bumper sticker about a month ago.
    Not really, because I think McCain and Palin would have been much worse.

    I'm disappointed in a great number of things he's done, though.

    What amazes me is that McCain became the republican nominee. He never stood a snowballs chance in , until he picked Palin. I do not believe he would have been worse. But he is too damn liberal for us conservative.

    He should take heat for this. Instead of rushing the stimulus package, they should have taken their time and did things right.

    From the get go they said that this problem would take years to fix and it wouldn't be easy. If they knew from the start that the recovery was going to take a long time, they shouldn't have put forth such a strung out bill.

    I'm not gonna about pig research or turtle roads, because in all honesty one mans trash is another man's treasure, but I definitely don't see justification for a lot of things in there.

    DING DING DING DING! We have a winner.

    Seriously, I don't know why they keep rushing like this through congress. It's too important. Maybe they're afraid of someone will actually read the legislation. I also don't like 300+ page ammendments slapped on to bills at 3 a.m. in Pelosi's office. WTF is up with that?

    No, it's very meaningful to tell you you don't know what you are talking about if you only open your eyes and ears.

    There should have been specific goals, specific efficiencies in mind, and specific timetables.

    It felt more like they put a whole bunch of money in a slop bucket, splashed it in the trough, yelled out "soowee" and walked away.

    Perhaps more input from state/municipal level administrators (I know senators and congressman are supposed to be that... but I think they're more interested in politics than what's actually good for an area). Obama spoke so much of treating the economy with a scalpel as opposed to McCain's hatchet... but a hatchet is exactly what we got.

    I realize this, but the cir stances called for something other than "normal government function".

    Isn't that what Obama was about? Changing the status quo?

    As citizens I think we deserve better than "normal government function".

    I want "exceptional government function"... if such a phrase even exists.
