The Apollo Alliance and Van Jones wrote the stimulus bill so what do you really expect. The cash for clunkers was also originally Van Jones's idea.
If we are to judge Obama by the people he surrounds himself with....then we should all be worried.
Corrupt Chicago moves to the white house.

Ridiculous. You are good for the occasional laugh, sunaz.

The great senator from Illinois, Burress, said it was Bush's fault.

boohoo,
The extra $8 or $5 received by people in the tax cuts is doing wonders.
Refilling the lost money in the 401k, putting away money for the kids college, and even a few nights of eating out.
What a stimulus bill. What a failure.

Well sunaz is not alone in his opinion. Obama is arrogant and full of himself. He thinks all he has to do is speak! That opinion is shared by many.

Dashiel, You ASSUME anyone who disagrees with what Obama is doing is a Bush supporter. You assume that everyone is saying it began and was created in 2009.
This time alot of it started with the housing crisis ....which we have the pressure from the Barney Frank types to make banks lend money to anybody, regardless of their credit. Then enter the wall street sharks.
But what is being done NOW is important. You can argue back and forth about political parties and blame but the argument should be about what is the best thing to do NOW.

The point is that Obama thinks everything is about him. And anything he does is wonderful, and of course everyone loves him.

I'm sure he'll stop referencing the previous administrations shortcomings once their supporters refrain from commenting that the economic problems began in 2009.

Dashiel, don't count on that stimulus package bringing our economy back! We need businesses.
Would you stand in a dome during a huricane too if your mayor told you to?
