At long last, despite an awful lot of hand wringing/revisionist history/predictions of doom (delete as mood takes you) by nearly every member of the GOP against the plan, the Stimulus Bill was signed into law on Tuesday.

Almost straight away, a bridge building infrastructure project (you can't have an economy without bridges, roads and railways to transport those consumables, GOP take note!) began.

Tell The Truthiness Says ; Perhaps this will quieten down those members of congress who were opposed to the idea of the bill. The reason? They objected to the spending part of it. That's like buying a food mixer and objecting to the mushing up of the food it causes. That's the point!

Schumer Predicts Stimulus To Pass By End Of The Week

The Senator from New York, Chuck Schumer is predicting that the Stimulus Bill will pass by the end of this week, despite the opposition foot dragging by the republicans.

Telling The Truthiness Says ; The reason Mr Schumer is optimistic? The results of the bill not going through are too big to contemplate and no-one wants to be found responsible for a failure of that magnitude. But the question is, how much damage has been done by this delay in the House? We may never know.
