Quotes from a 72-yr old man in the crowd re. the "stimulus" bill:
"The other side makes me mad for not thinking about every individual citizen.......Some people have everything in the world and to deny someone the right to live, it's not right." Does somebody want to shake Grampa and tell him about cost effectiveness?
"You want the country to go to hell? That's stupid."
Today he anxiously awaited the arrival of the enforcer of that concept.

Fox news just cut him off and are discussing the future "stimulus" of the "stimulus" bill.
This is a train wreck and they're all up there proud of themselves & laughing about it.

Why fly in to Denver to sign this atrocity? Symbolism. The Denver airport is covered with such muriel messages.

Is the campaign ever going to end? For somebody who “won” he sure is a loser if he has to peddle his long awaited recovery plan.
To: Califreak
If you step back, take a deep breath, and look. Obama has been traveling to states that were red prior to his election.
They do nothing that is not planned FRiends, which tells the opposition to focus on these states. Right?
Time to watch what they do.

Biden’s simmering resentment of his second-fiddle status really shouldn’t be so badly concealed. He spends the first five minutes “joking” about riding the small plane.
I wonder if that’s the White House equivalent of the short bus.
