Last week, after saying how important it was to do something now about the economy, a stimulus bill was rushed through Congress without any member really having time to read the 1,093 pages. So, what does our president do? After an agreement is reached between the Senate and the House, Barack Obama heads to Chicago for the weekend and doesn't sign the oh, so important bill until Monday afternoon in Denver. Wasn't it Congress that was up in arms about automaker CEOs traveling in private planes to D.C.? Yet, our president and vice president can fly across the country in a show of pomp and circumstance to sign a beheomoth spending bill. Yes, it is a spending bill that will likely have very little stimulative effect. Reach into your pockets and hold tightly onto your change because it will be the only lasting, positive change to come from this administration.
