Let's keep this in at least an honest perspective. This is a bill left over from last year (because democratic and republican crooks could not come to terms).
Also as noted above this is a congress problem; Dems AND Repubs. The disgusting part is that these "lawmakers" can eventually hold any bill hostage if they don't get their "earmarks" (read strongarm money).

Read this if you have any doubt that this is bipartisan issue. The contaminated way that our congress functions has not fundemantaly changed.
Should it be vetoed? H@#* yes, and I hope it will be. But honestly, with a congress full of self serving thieves that can hold the budget/bills/system at large hostage, I doubt it will. Everyone has to get their little piece of the pie to keep constituents happy and buy the votes. How many of our citizens are writing their congressman to demand that the earmarks for their community be removed???
I am sure that there will be posts somehow still stating that this is all still evil Obama's problem but really, it's a system wide problem and only willingness to make some sweeping and painful changes can begin to make a dent in it.
