I think it’s interesting that Obama is trying so hard reaching across the aisle to the republications for support on the stimulus bill when he needs no votes in the house and only two votes in the senate to pass it. I would think if it’s such a right thing to do for our country and they are so sure it’s going to work, why not pass it leave the republicans in the dust?

When it works the way they say it will and no republication voted for it they could take all the credit and it would all but assure democratic election victories as far as the eye could see. Given his momentum and popularity it could even spell the end of the republication party as a whole for not supporting the very thing that pulled the economy back from the brink of disaster.

Why? Because they know it’s not going to work and it was never designed to pull us out of the recession and they don’t want the blame laid squarely at their feet. This needs to be bipartition!

Every day I read more and more commentary that suggests these trillions of dollars are not much more than a ploy designed to entrench government even deeper into the private sector.

If any republican senators or congressman are reading this, run away, run away fast.
