Economic stimulus bill passes Senate hurdle

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/29106540/

"Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid vowed to deliver a bill to President Barack Obama's desk within days, ..."

"He said passage would mark "the first step on the long road to recovery.""

I thought the first step was the passage of the $700 Billion screwup - I mean, bill.

"This is a spending bill, not a stimulus bill," said Sen. Lamar Alexander, a Republican.

I agree - this is just another chance for the government to approve additional spending at the cost of taxpayers, without any input by those same taxpayers.

Just wrong. It didn't work the first time, and we are paying for it - why would it work this time, at a significantly higher price tag? it won't.
