Obama Vs Obama

morethanamolehill @morethanamolehill (1586) • United States 20 Jul 09

Here is a Funny (not) new video starring the new President. It's compiled from his own words. Except for the part about 2.3 Million (so far, as of July 2009) jobs lost SINCE the Stimulus Bill was signed. Obama didn't say...

Can we expect many opening in Congress soon

bobmnu @bobmnu (8157) • United States 17 Mar 09

It seems that Senator Grassley believes that the Executives of AIG and other companies that took Federal Money for the Bailout should kill themselves for ruining the company. IF that is the case will we see mass suicides once the...

Did you get extra money in your paycheck this week?

deejean06 @deejean06 (1952) • United States 16 Mar 09

Are you the recipient of the President's stimulus package? Did you have less federal tax taken out of your check giving you more money this week? It was a nice surprise but I'm thinking there must be a catch somehow...after all...

Obama to sign stimulus bill today in Denver....Why go all the way to Denver?

ctrymuziklvr @ctrymuziklvr (11057) • United States 17 Feb 09

As much as I love Obama I can't help but wonder why he has to go to Denver to sign the stimulus bill. To me it seems like a waste of money in that the plane has to have gas, the pilots paid and he has to be put up somewhere! I...

Stimulus Bill Congress to vote Sight unseen

bobmnu @bobmnu (8157) • United States 12 Feb 09

It seems that nobody know what is in the Stimulus Bill because as Speaker Pelosi reportedly said that the Republicans probably would not vote for it so they have no need to read the bill. This is very similar to reports that she...

Does the stimulus bill help you?

BrianDaniel @BrianDaniel (256) • United States 11 Feb 09

I'm still working through the newly agreed upon stimulus bill. I am curious as to whether you think it will improve your financial situation in any way, either immediately or in the coming year or two?

I just found the online petition tonight. I think the stimulus package is a bad idea, so I signed the petition as soon as I found it. Has anyone else signed it yet? If not, please do. I hope it isn't too late! You can find the...

Stimulus Bill passes

lilwonders @lilwonders456 (8214) • United States 10 Feb 09

Well all the hoop la is over. The bill just got passed. For better or worse (worse I feel) we are now stuck with it. What do you think? Will it help? Will it make things worse? Will it do nothing but waste money.

sdmoonchild @sdmoonchild (731) • United States 29 Jan 09

At work this morning, we were reading the local paper and it was saying that the stimulus bill had passed and that it was supposed to be signed next month. I have one question though, that many people at work are not sure of what...
