    The full list is provided on the original link. Contact your congressman for a "cost analysis." Remember, to do nothing in this cris is to fail.

    The Congressional Budget Office disagrees. They think that we would be better off if we did not do the "stimulus" spending.

    Looks like we have a text book democracy to me. Here is the definition of democracy;

    2. A political system in which the supreme power lies in a body of citizens who can elect people to represent them

    Here is the definition of republic

    1. A political system in which the supreme power lies in a body of citizens who can elect people to represent them

    Not much difference, is there?

    Wow, doing nothing is the republican entire philosophy. That's really hitting below the belt so they don't have a second page in the book.

    What bonehead thought this up? Doing nothing would be far better than what has been done so far. If we had done nothing, the economy would still be bad (though probably better) and we would have a trillion less in debt to pass on to our grandkids.

    Remember, when Bush ran up deficits, you were upset about it. When Obama does it you are okay. It goes to show that it is not about principle with you; it is about politics.

    You should do more research and refrain from commenting on American government or politics until you know the difference.

    So I take it you approve of the entire list, without knowing the details ? Is that accurate, I don't want to put words in your mouth.
