Susan Collins and Arlen Specter are there speaking in favor of the deal.
Yep. Same exact BS as the very first time months ago.
Questions... do you see any repubs at the mike in front of the cameras?
No?
There is no deal, only commie propaganda
I don’t know, but the article in my local paper ended with this comment:
Collins told reporters she hoped fellow GOP lawmakers would reconsider when the final compromise comes to a vote “rather than just reflexively oppose this.”
She said the negotiators had “tightened and scrubbed it” to eliminate wasteful spending.
Most Democrats demanded more spending, and the rest agreed. Done deal.
Does anyone recall when Reid marched out to the microphones in the Capitol Building and announced he had killed the Patriot Act a few years back? Not. It aint over ‘til the fat lady sings.
And even if it is enacted into law the dang thing will collapse on itself, because it does nothing to stimulate anything but socialism. Even some of the brain dead dem minions are beginning to catch on.
And there are the stupid demrats putting on a show of making financial and lending house CEOs explain what they did with the TARP money today? Anyone watching this farce would have to ask themselves why give more tax payer money to ideologues and thieves like these bums. The demrats would have been better off leaving that rock unturned until after the so-called stimulus package vote.
There doesn’t seem to be coordinated game plan between the WH and Congressional demrats.
1. Borrowing and spending upwards of trillion dollars for a short turm shot in the arm just seems whacko on its surface.
2. Recessions happen on a fairly regular basis. We had one in the 90's, in the '80's, in the 70's, in the '60's. They always ended, and without massive stimulus.
3. Any legislation made in haste usually leads to more problems than it solves. There are probably dozens if not hundred of little time bombs buried in this legislation (like mark to market). The senators voting on this do not even know what they are voting on.
4.Government solving economic problems? Are you kidding me?
5.Maybe its just me, but I just don't think that Barack Obama has even the slightest idea of what the problem is, much less how to solve it. And if I hear one more time that he inherited this problem from the previous adminsistration, I think I shall hurl. President Obama, how many spending bills did you vote against because of excessive spending? Thought so.
