I don't think there's a single member of the Senate that believes that no action is the appropriate course for us to take.

Obama speak

[spyone]

Gee, that’s great Mitch. Way to go!

Didn't this idiot vote in favor of 800 billion in spending when it was Bush saying we had to do it?

....only the US government can get together to slash a bill to reduce government waste and come up with something that is MORE waste.....and they wonder why people don't trust,admire,adhere,feel confident,about ANYTHING they purpose.
Now about that transparency?

Dear Mitch,

How much does any current or former politicians stand to earn from the new "green" jobs being "created" by this Porkulus bill. We need names and amounts.

Thanks,

FWF

That’s my Senator...dead on!

One thing, we borrowed roughly the same amount being proposed in this spending bill between the Civil War and the 1960s...we’re borrowing that same amount in just one bill. We have lost our minds in this country. Commie-Obamie is going to destory us from within without a single shot being fired, just like the Russians predicted. We’re on our way if something is not done soon.

gutless worms! they need to stand up and say this is a socialist coup attempt. Call these people what they are.

I don't think there's a single member of the Senate that believes that no action is the appropriate course for us to take.

And therein lies the problem...

That all goes to Obama's friends Buffett and Imelt... and nope, I'm not being sarcastic... it's a follow bouncing ball scenario.. Buffett buys into GE, Imelt is added to Obama's economic team, GE makes the wind turbines......Buffett gets richer, Imelt saves his job with GE... oh, and people don't question the need for windmills because GE's subsidiaries NBC, MSNBC and CNBC have all been hitting home we are going to die from global warming for several years now...

Oh, and for good measure one of the other people on the economic team happens to be heavily invested in green and employees Al Gore.

$1T?
We could outright give every unemployed person $90,000.
We could give every employer, for 9 years, a $10,000 tax credit for each person they hire and keep hired.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Exactly the kind of stuff I was looking for. Thanks Arizona!

[Arizona Carolyn]

I also read Buffett just bought into Harley and there is $60 billion in the pork bill for Harley to provide new motorcycles to police departments. Now, I like Harley and I think police should have good bikes, but I find it strange Buffett is buying into all these companies and then Obama is rewarding him with pork contracts.

[RobinOfKingston]

Well ... it ain’t “Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead.”

Obama is poised to run the biggest corporate welfare regime in history.

[Frantzie]

We call call call tomorrow and fax including the RNC. These GOP morons have the usurper on the ropes and they don’t even know it. Fight you fools fight!

Anything Obama signs may be void and the BC is FAR from over.

McConnell is not exactly “Mr. Excitement.”

[Frantzie]

Same reason why Buffett is the majority shareholder in Well Fargo and the Lib Dem Sandlers dumped World Savings (filled with toxic pic a pay mtgs) on Wachovia. Wachovia blows up thanks to Soros and gang shorts then Buffett bous it for a song PLUS gets BILLIONS in tax loss carryforwards for eternity.

These looters are not being exposed. Screw Buffett and Harley.
