WTF? Congress Rushes Porkulus. Obama Takes Vacation. Eats Fancy Food.

Well at least the markets are reacting well to the porkulus bill. Oops down 250 points and still dropping. Looks like the markets did not like the pork filled spending bill renamed into stimulus. At least some field mouse will be saved amiright?

Anyone understand the logic here?

Obama presses Congress.
Congress rushes passage.
No one in Congress actually reads bill.
Obama takes long weekend vacation to Chicago.
Obama forgets that most Americans work on Prez Day.
Obama and Michelle eat fancy V-day dinner at Table 52. (Menu prices not online.)
Obama forgets that many Americans are having to choose between heating their homes and food.
Obama waits another day to sign rushed bill.

Mr. Obama: Would you like some change to go with your steak?
Lol, what a fool you are:laugh:

Problem solved.

For now. What happens if Obama makes good on his claim that "We cant all have the heat at 72"?

Whenever I see specop posting all I can hear is an infant crying. Republicans are retarded man-childern, news at 11.
 
Hmmm... Valentine's day, the First Lady's hometown, state that the President was formerly a senator from... it all adds up now, the stimulus package was actually for viagra!!!
Fancy food, what's next a comfy chair?
THE COMFY CHAIR!!!

I like the fact he said we cant keep driving our SUV's and keep our houses at 75 or whatever it is, and then proceeds to get in the White House and crank the heat up to 80.

This is a gross misrepresentation of the truth. Not that I'm surprised.

No, actually its not. However as I predicted the bleating sheep would be along anytime to prove me right. Its like clockwork.

Heres an example. Remember the poor security guard for a congressman who forgot his concealed carry weapon while in DC?
No charges.

Everyone is equal, some are more equal then others.

How about half of Obamas Administration that have "forgotten" to pay taxes? If it were you or I we'd be on the national news as the Feds bashed down the door.
Everyone is equal, some are more equal then others.

Keep bleating my sheeple friend........

LOL yea right.

i dunno

pretty much everyone sane on both sides is mostly taking a break, with a few exceptions. The moonbats and hacks have taken over.

Haha, I think this is actually accurate. All the people who I actually like to read in this forum area seem to have taken a hike for the last few months.

Obama pushed Congress to complete the bill last week because Congress isn't in session this week. Yes, they could have altered the legislative calender to change things but that screws up a lot of stuff already put into place in order to do what? Change nothing in the bill? The Republicans knew this as well as the Democrats did, and had they wanted, they could have delayed the Senate vote and pushed it into the weekend/recess. They chose not to.

The Post is well aware of all this information (or at least they should be), but they neglected to mention it in their article, doing a disservice to their readers.

Who? I havent noticed the absence of any regular.
 
Overreact much? And how is this a "vacation" when the bill was signed a day later than BHO had originally intended? First people complain about how fast the 1,073 page monstrosity bill (largest since WWII) was rushed to the floor and now people complain that it took *gasp* an extra day to sign. Remove the sand from your vagina.

From FoxNews:
Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle conceded that they didn't have enough time to comb through the entire 1,100-page bill. The House published final language online at about 11 p.m. ET Thursday -- and members approved it just 15 hours later.
 
LOL DOW DOWN 297 POINTS AND DROPPING LIKE A ROCK.............................nobody read the bill they just RAMMED it thru.....................................................all of our government Rs and Ds stink to high heaven and we keep voting them in so they STICK it up our combined asses and we say..........THANKS MASTER MAY I HAVE ANOTHER............

Would have been better if she had the bag over her head. :Q

That is a low blow. Maybe you can make fun of her children too?

Michelle is gorgeous compared to this first lady.

Are you retarded? The market moves on tons and tons of things. Furthermore, if you think the one day performance of the stock market should have the slightest meaning as to if ANY piece of legislation is a good or bad idea you should get the hell out of the market immediately for your own good, because you are so poor at judging what's important that you will likely lose your shirt.

What is with you ideological nutjobs who froth at anyone who criticzes any elitism by any Republican when they're in power, and then become Mr. Hyde populists when a Democrat gets into office? Now suddenly the President of the United States getting to eat a steak is a political issue worthy of a thread.

You people all remind me of the Jim Morrison line, "his brain was squirming like a toad". You are so rabidly ideological you just can't keep the hate from making you irrational.
