WASHINGTON – The Senate Democratic leader expressed optimism Friday about the prospects for a massive economic recovery package while President Barack Obama used the cudgel of his office — and the latest dire jobless numbers — to challenge lawmakers to act swiftly.
On Capitol Hill, centrists from both parties scrambled to cut the massive, $900-billion-plus price tag of the package in hopes of making it more palatable to Republicans. On the flip side of the bipartisan effort, Obama sharpened his rhetoric in challenging the GOP to back the measure, arguing that last November voters rejected "partisan posturing," and "the same tried and failed approaches."
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada reflected the fierce sense of urgency among Democrats and the White House amid the party's fear that Republicans were turning public opinion against the costly bill.
"The world is waiting to see what we're going to do in the next 24 hours," Reid said on the Senate floor, citing the bleaker economic picture.

The world is waiting and watching, eh? I wonder what they expect to happen with a bill that DOES NOT REVITALIZE THE ECONOMY? IT IS A PORK SPENDING BILL DESIGNED TO BUY POWER FOR THE LIBS AND PAYBACKS FOR THE OBAMA ELECTION. And the American economy? Will be just the same in reality because NOTHING will have been done to revitalize a capitalist economy e.g. taxation reduction, stimulation for business investment, income tax cuts for those THAT PAY TAXES.....ETC.
God help America. Obama will have his money to build his voter army up.
Couldn't get through on the phone, but I have e-mailed both of mine. They both appear to be against this garbage.
heard on Fox Obama is going to take a tour of a couple of states next week and give stump speeches about the plan, also giving a presser Monady night from the East Room @ WH.
“Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada reflected the fierce sense of urgency among Democrats”.....
Of course!...the longer it takes the more pork people uncover! A special thanks to stretchface Pelosi for this pile of crap!....
“The Senate Democratic leader expressed optimism Friday about the prospects for a massive economic recovery package”
Proving once again that Harry Reid is a drooling, brainless skin bag.
(sigh)
Once this ‘’package’’ gets spent and the results prove to be very negative, Obamma will be stuck with no way out. How many pieces of the economy can he nationalize before the pitchforks arrive at the White House gate.
“Harry Reid of Nevada reflected the fierce sense of urgency among Democrats and the White House amid the party’s fear that Republicans were turning public opinion against the costly bill.”
Ohmigod! How DARE Republicans actually take public exception to the pork-laden monster. Put it to the vote, Dingy, and YOU and YOUR PARTY accept the consequences of the disaster that will follow.
Barry, just pass the darn thing and quit trying to play footsie with the GOP! We want you to OWN this crap sandwich 100 percent.

That cudgel’s gonna get blunt when zerO keeps using it to announce jobless numbers rising and rising and rising
while inflation joins the raft of miseries to follow the necessity of funding Porkula
Somehow I doubt many of the unemployed will find comfort in being told about “new jobs” filling potholes, painting daycare centers and changing light bulbs
“Proving once again that Harry Reid is a drooling, brainless skin bag.”
I seriously wonder if Dingy is suffering from some kind of dementia. His statements get more bizarre by the week.
What’s scary is...how will we prevent ANY garbage from getting passed?
Dear Barry, your campaign tricks will not get this bill passed for this. This is the real world.
Will he be wearing his suit jacket?

“I seriously wonder if Dingy is suffering from some kind of dementia.”
As are Nevada voters.
This 600++ page Bill was written or page by page copied and pasted over the last decade of the Left’s wet dream of control over nearly everything. Their Marxist goals have driven most of these college graduate law majors, Red doper diaper babies since the sixties!
You damn right there is urgency to pass it.
