I don't really believe the numbers. I think the Democrats are stuffing the cash into their own pet projects to be worked on by their own GSA pets.
I saw a news bit on Drudge that the pubbies in the Senate might put a stop to the bill or that they were trying? I'm very jaded and not sure how this may be. I wonder if any of the Dems are coming over to the “stop porcullus” side. I don't know why, maybe they might NOT be inclined to follow Harry Reid over the anti-incumbant cliff in 2010.
