Obama's camp was mum today, but White House spokeswoman Dana Perino told reporters before the ceremony aboard the USS Intrepid that the president did not try to cut a deal with Obama on his stimulus request.
"In no way did the president suggest a quid pro quo when it comes to the Colombian Free Trade agreement or other free trade agreements," she said. "He believes it can and should pass on its own merit.

Bush is trying to be decent, and Obama is trying to use Bush for his own political purposes. What’s up with that?

Obama has destroyed an creditability he had with foreign leaders by doing this to his own president.

But that is a good way to keep GM in business. Government take over GM and give everyone a new car.

He has just shown that he is not trustworthy.

what’s Obama’s big rush?
In a few months, he’ll be able to put through whatever stimuli he wishes.
It seems as if Obama doesn’t want to take responsibility for his own program.
A more reasonable approach would be for Congress to carefully decide exactly what stimulus they want, work on the bill the next 2 months and get it right, they can send it to Obama on the afternoon of Jan. 20.
