Obama Signs $787 Billion Stimulus Package

One word to describe this stimulus package: FOOLISH!!! I don't think people realize that this will only give us an extra $8-$13 a week. Oh sure that will help Americans get ahead. We are on our way to being The Socialist States of America. There's your "change" for those who voted for Obama.

Re: Obama Signs $787 Billion Stimulus Package

Does anybody really know what is in this huge pork barrel?

How much is ACORN being awarded for their election fraud?

How much of this is just payback to Unions, Gays, Greenies, Hollywood, and others from Obama and the Democrat controlled legislators?

The Administration could just not offer a stimulus package and allow banks and industries to fail...resulting in a wave of nationalization. Now that would be REAL socialism.

First of all, this isnt a stimulus package. its the biggest pork barrell in the history of America.

there is very little real stimulus in it.

second of all, Obama isnt a socalist. I have come to realize he is really a facisit.

by the way the stock market is down 700 points since this "stimulus" plan passed.

We just had to pass this thing FAST!!! to save the country. We had to pass it so fast that no Congressman even had a chance to to read what they were voting on!

Then the bill sat there for 3 days while the President palled around and spent Valentines' Day with Michelle in an expensive Chicago restaurant - on the taxpayer's dime.

There was no hurry to sign the bill. The only hurry was to get it past Congress before anybody had a chance to read it. What do the Obama supporters on AFF have to say about this?

Pel, supporters of America should be saying that both parties have now done this and we demand some real answers from all sides.

I wish most of you worked for a government office at least once in your lives. This issue is really complex and there are not easy answers.

Congressman virtually never read the bills they pass bro. Same with the Bush Administration.

First, anything you want to bet it wasn't on the tax payer's dime. Did you know that the food and provisions in the White House aren't even paid for...the President has to budget it out of his salary?

Second, it's not all that surprising that he let the bill sit to cool for a day or two. With the actions he's taken regarding Afghanistan he was in several high level national security meetings. That's hardly paling around.

Thirdly, it's refreshing to see a President place his marriage as a high priority on his list.
