So this bi-partisan administration is not getting off to a good start. Republicans from Maine to Philadelphia have rallied to rescue the economy, but Obama's choice for Secretary of Commerce, Senator Gregg of New Hampshire, did not vote for the program to rescue commerce. Wha?? Why is he taking the job? Why is he being appointed?
Apparently 36 of the Republicans voted on an amendment to change the entire stimulus package into tax cuts. McCain, who twice voted against the Bush tax cuts which doubled the national debt wants to cut a half billion a year in taxes. Oh, eliminate capital gains taxes, make the upper income Bush cuts permanent, etc.
I heard on a Salon economy story "bi-partisanship doesn't work when one side is insane".
off the topic, I got a gmail account last week to try it out. Now Blogger recognizes me every time. While using my netscape.net address it demanded that I log in every time. I think that Google is becoming evil.
