The problem is that the majority just say "That will not be enough" and decide not to do it at all. So we are stuck in neutral trying to move up a hill with our thumbs up our asses. In the end we need to do something. Let's get it started! We may not absolutely see eye to eye on all ideas, but hell lets put some things in action.
Sorry but I do not think that passing a bill that spends 800 trillion dollars that by the presidents own words saves 4,000 jobs is worth the investment. I have said all along lets not just rush a bill through to say something was done but lets take our time and try to get the best bill through. I don't care which party has the right solution but rather they come up with a better plan. I'm not talking 6 to 12 months but a month or so to really think this through. The money going to Iraq is spent and there is nothing that we can do about that now so there is no need to have that argument again. The money that is getting spent on Iraq is creating jobs here and we also have people over there working but I agree it would be better if it was all spent here.
