Jack & Jill Politics

Spirit _55z – I thought that the PREVIOUS congress (and A.G. Gonzolez) were damned and spat upon for “Serving the PRESIDENT” rather than doing what their JOBS WERE – to be a “Check and Balance”.

Glad to see you have CHANGED.

Claire has also realized that the Dems have overreached on the 'stimulus' bill and will have to trim it back.

” I think that there have been some mistakes made. From my perspective there have been mistakes made on the stimulus bill. There has been such a starvation diet for some of these programs that the appropriators got a little over anxious in the House. They probably did some things they shouldn’t have…

We do need to look at the safety net side of the stimulus bill that can get into the economy quickly. But we can’t right every wrong in terms of programs we support in the stimulus bill. And the other thing is, whether it is the National Endowment of the Arts or some of the STD funding or contraceptive funding, all we did was just tee up ammunition for the other side to tear this thing down. And I would like to think we are smarter than that. I’m hopeful on the Senate side we will be smarter than that.”

Gotta love the conservative trolls, back at it again. On the topic at hand, as Spirit said, McCaskill stated clearly that she serves the people of Missouri and they are mad as HELL! I notice how conservative troll #1 left that out.

It's also funny-but-not really, how the same folks that are whining about the bail out money, were the same ones on the blame the average working, middleclass, minorities and/or poor for the economic disaster we are in. It's NEVER blame the greedy CEO's, banks and their cohorts because … it's not their fault they just HAD to give out bad loans (false claim #1) and it's not THEIR fault they are reaping the benefits of their greed-filled judgements.

And it couldn't possibly be their fault that THEY are the ones poppin Chys and buying new houses, while the people folks like YOU blame are losing theirs and drowing in debt and despair.

Sure I'm being dramatic, but when you take a step back it's really the truth. There is a HUGE difference between President Obama and George Bush, and the ball is not in the latter's favor, if you can't see that, you just don't want to

Yeah, but wasn't she and Obama there when that loophole was written into TARP?
