Kingfish Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 http://www.usnews.com/blogs/washington-whi...bbyists-do.html When you dump these links onto the forum could you at least title the thread something descriptive and not just some cryptic teaser.

IDBillzFan Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I thought the American people were going to have 48 hours to review this before the House vote. Did I hear that incorrectly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wacka Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I thought the American people were going to have 48 hours to review this before the House vote. Did I hear that incorrectly? They said the house would have had to read 2.5 pages per minute all night to have read it before the vote. This Porkulus bill is the biggest abortion to come out of DC ever.

At least we are spending it on our OWN infrastructure FIRST than say reflooding the "marsh people" in Iraq (Saddam Hussein drained them... Iraq's version of our everglades).

Let me help you out here...it's a crock of sh*t! Gotta love the transparency promised by "The One". But I think if you put even an ounce of thought into it you'll agree with me...

But I think if you put even an ounce of thought into it you'll agree with me... I don't know if you are familiar with the American government, or how it's set up or anything like that. Perhaps you should speak with a third grader to learn this: the president does not control congress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pBills Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 I love how the claws are still out with the republicans. Just cracks me up. That aside people... so the republicans got their way and had less spending on infrastructure, etc. and more tax breaks. Would that have worked? I say no. I say no for the general public because people are savings whatever they can just in case they lose their job. And I say no to businesses because businesses are still going to trim their workforces and make other cuts. So the money they save via tax breaks will not do anything to boost the economy. Kind of like the banks that received cash in order to open up lending. Has that happened? No. I love the idea of spending some cash and getting people hired and back to work on projects that will help this country out in the long run.
