I'm not happy about it.
Take for instance the $8b for high speed rail between Las Vegas and Disneyland and the high speed rail between San Francisco and Los Angeles. That $8b is only for engineering studies!
I thought President Obama promised "shovel ready" projects?
Then, there's Nancy Pelosi's promise to put the bill online for 48hrs for public review before any voting took place. Didn't happen.
Why? Speaker Nancy had to catch a 6pm flight tonight and she has a meeting with the Pope.
For Pete sake, the Pope comes before the American people? What happened to the transparency that President Obama promised? I'm not seeing it.
I'm not happy that the Republicans cutting a lot of school refurbishing out of the bill. I thought that's what this stimulus package was partly about? Fixing/repairing schools and creating jobs to do so?
Why are we spending $8b for engineering studies for projects way down the road? Why aren't we spending $8b on repairing schools, roads, bridges?
...it's just same old political games in Washington DC - just a different party running the show.
I'm disappointed.
