That is the problem with politics. You obviously agree that stimulus was necessary. The problem with this package is that it was rushed. And the fact that it was rushed gave everyone an excuse to throw his/her pet project in.

But then again, there really wasnt an alternative. You can't blame Obama for all the pork thats in that package and you certainly can't blame it purely on democrats.

In my opinion, there simply was no choice.
