I don't see anything that will prevent this... This is about Big Government, not stimulating the economy... every pet project is approved and they don't even give time to debate it... we and our children's children will regret these decisions

Hey Len, did you somehow miss that Obama is deficit spending more than even Bush did or is it because he has a D after his name instead of an R that his spending habits are better? The deficit he has already agreed to is larger than any other ever, no matter how you slice it. Keep drinking that kool-aid!
Don't get me wrong, I am NO BUSH fan when it comes to the economy. He was as much a spender as any D president has ever been as well as a big government type. That is why I vote Libertarian anytime I can. Liberal on the freedom side, and conservative on the spending and government side! One or two generations from now we are looking at a $53 TRILLION tab that will come due in a VERY BIG WAY! Hell, I probably won't even be around then, but woe to the people who are!
Yep! Damn shame Bush and his idiot Treasury Sec gave all those $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ to the dip-$hit bankers (that were the major cause of our current economic meltdown) with no thought to even so much as monitoring how the money would be used.
Len,
This is factually incorrect. It was Congress who failed to address oversight when it drafted the Troubled Asset Relief Program. Regrettably, this is only one of the unintended consequences of legislation that is written quickly and without the proper committee processes applied....
...kind of like the recently passed, 1100-page $1 trillion dollar "stimulus package", which was not read by any lawmaker prior to voting on it.
What we've done is morally corrupt, passing the costs of our folly to future generations.
Important thing is the good guys won
I think I am done here.
