God I hate Nancy Pelosi! This goddamn stimulus package is 100% BULLSHIT! It is not going to work. It won't create jobs, it won't help the economy at all. It's actually going to make the economy worse by delaying the recession even longer than it would normally have. There is a lot of wasteful spending in this bill. For example, there is $1 Billion dollars for "science". What the hell does that even mean. It needs to be specific.

Oh man I love it, I love it so much when republicans talk about spending and creating debt being so bad, it makes me fall of the couch each time i hear it. After they waisted around 10 trilion on Iraq war alone in last 8 yrs.

Wasted? My oh my. Didn't you know we made good progress in Iraq? The Kurds for one I know are very thankful.

10 trillion sounds a little high of an estimate. I want to know where you got that figure from.

In any case, the Stiumuls won't undo what has been done; we have to do our best to prevent more wasteful spending.

Great, great news, thanks. We all know it was inevatable though, and I was never concerned about it being passed. Great job President and Congress, I haven't said these words in a long long time, and it feels good.

Watch Nancy Pelosi smile as she welcomes the Armageddon. Boehner makes a very valid consideration at 4:02-- "This bill is not being paid for by taxpayers today... It's going to be paid for by our kids, our grandkids and their kids and we have to be cognizant of the debt that we're putting on them." Never has any dem said anything about where and on whose shoulders the debt will fall. Nice work Boehner-- represent the youth of the nation!

As a kid, I'm glad you are taking me into consideration :)
