<< So far all the legislation he's sent to congress was for proposals he had talked about before the economy ever went into recession. He's simply using the sad state of the economy to justify his ideologically motivated proposals (not that I disagree with all of them). >> Your disagreeing with his approach does not mean he is 'skirting' the issues. Besides, presidents have very little real affect on the economy. If the lowest interst rates in 900 years have not improved things, then nothing the Pres can do will really help. <<For example his tax cut proposal doesn't really kick in until several years from now. So in no way does his proposal affect the economy. >> Part of his package is to accelerate the cuts foward to kick in right away and others sooner. Are we talking about the same administration here? <gg> <<<I've heard of a lot of honest students and workers being harrassed, including some famous scientists being denied entry to the US. On the other hand I haven't heard about a real catch in the US, a la ricin in the UK. >> How about those dudes arrested in Buffalo, NY? That wasn't sexy enough for ya? <<More importantly, before we go after Sadam, where is Osama? >> Osama is dead.
