I'd like to see an itemized cost analysis for most of these, especially things like $1 Billion for the census bureau. Your list means nothing. I could tell you I need money for chemical research & go buy a keg of beer. Your list provides no information at all, and while it may satisfy you, I'm glad some smart people are asking questions.
The full list is provided on the original link. Contact your congressman for a "cost analysis." Remember, to do nothing in this cris is to fail.

The Congressional Budget Office disagrees. They think that we would be better off if we did not do the "stimulus" spending.

We live in a republic. And libbies work to by pass the amendment apsect and try to legislate form the bench. I know of no one who denies the constitution can be amended. But libbbies don't' like to do that. They want to back door everything.

Looks like we have a text book democracy to me. Here is the definition of democracy;

2. A political system in which the supreme power lies in a body of citizens who can elect people to represent them

Here is the definition of republic

1. A political system in which the supreme power lies in a body of citizens who can elect people to represent them

Not much difference, is there?

Wow, doing nothing is the republican entire philosophy. That's really hitting below the belt so they don't have a second page in the book.

What bonehead thought this up? Doing nothing would be far better than what has been done so far. If we had done nothing, the economy would still be bad (though probably better) and we would have a trillion less in debt to pass on to our grandkids.

Remember, when Bush ran up deficits, you were upset about it. When Obama does it you are okay. It goes to show that it is not about principle with you; it is about politics.

You should do more research and refrain from commenting on American government or politics until you know the difference.

So I take it you approve of the entire list, without knowing the details ? Is that accurate, I don't want to put words in your mouth.
