I agree about the 48 hours (not 5 days parker...I believe it was supposed to be 48 hours)...it was debated for a month before it passed, but I agree with you. This did disappoint me as well.
Pork..you'll never ever get rid of it. One mans pork is another mans stimulus (at least in his mind)
Secrecy? The bill is available for viewing. What portion do you feel was secret.

here ya go chuck... enjoy..

And again Parker (and everyone else on here that these things apply to) no one is forcing anyone to cash stimulus checks, subsidy checks, etc.... You each chose to do it, you could have simply not cashed them. You could have taken one for the team. You could have bucked the system....but none of you did. Everyone is against a gov't handout until it is going to them.

the proof is here chuck.... -
You are right Parker. The info I had seen prior to that said 48 hours, but I stand corrected.
At any rate it sat on <u>his</u> desk 5 days before he signed it (congress passed it on Friday and he signed it today Fri, Sat, Sun, Mon, Tues...yup 5 days)....and he got slammed by people like torbs for saying it was there too long. The bill was posted online the night it passed the house & senate (admittedly not by the whitehouse, but it was technically online all over the place).
Meetings were public...I believe, I didn't watch Cspan to find out...I may be wrong.

Im sick of hearing about the shitty economy and politics. Can we talk about something fun? At this point, i'd rather read 40 pages of arguments about how grapefruit and oranges are different.Nothing to argue. the difference is that oranges are good while grapefruit tastes like horse vomit.

Like he said, the left has no argument, and anybody that liberal has no methods or actual reasons for their argument. Therefore he is the beacon of light of left wing debate. Someone has to do it, and i would get bored if i couldnt post little one liners criticizing him for it

well the proposed bill may not be the greatest bill in every way. it has some good things. plus no one else has tried to do anything else. so if this doesnt work, well its more than the republicans have done. I mean the two sides bitch and moan at each other but only one side comes up with a plan. During these times wouldnt both sides want to come up with a plan and quit fighting with each other. fucken pathetic.The House Republicans did propose a bill that was half the cost (around the $400B) and included more tax cuts. They also believed it would create around 2x more jobs than the current plan. To say they didn't try to do anything is a total misconception and false.
The question between the two parties is not whether something should be done or not, but whether what to do. Dems want more spending and less tax cuts. Republicans want more tax cuts and less spending. That's a short summary.
And for Chuck to QFT you on that means he didn't do his homework either. Tisk tisk.
