Bush had to say something if nothing else to calm emotions. As to his retirement benefits he dident exactly 'do nothing' wether you agree or disagree with his policys He inherited and took on some really difficult situations.
As to the bill..... Its called socalisim. A lofty goal strived for by the left and their willing accomplises in the mainstream media for the last 12 years or so slowly coming to fruition.
Makes me so mad I could spit.
The bill while well intended bloated to the size of a novel with so many earmarks and riders to 'sway' votes its absolutly nothing short of shamefull.
Ill never understand the sense of urgency behind it other than the timing. I sincerley doubt that the average american doesent have a clue to what is actually in the bill let alone the senators that actually voted on it.
For instance did you know that the bill will assume the pension packages for union members that the corporations had passed to the unions and now the unions have passed on to the tax payer?
There is a grant to some company that makes wooden toy arrows, another grant to a vodka producer, the list goes on and on.
By the way Hillary still owes me that christmass gift she promised last december.
Horray for the Democratic controlled Congress... Good Job! ..... Sassin frassin friggin riggin son of a bumpkins.
