Republicans want a Bigger Stimulus package
Tax cuts and deregulation instituted by the Republicans over the last 8 years are largely what led us into the mess we're in right now. The Republicans say the Stimulus package is too big. They say it's too small. They say it needs more tax cuts. They say it needs more infrastructure spending. Republicans got us into the mess we're in and don't seem to know whether the Stimulus package is too big or too small. Maybe it's time to quit asking the Republicans what they think. Barack Obama was elected President and Democrats swept the House. Maybe it's time to ask the Democrats what they think about the Stimulus package.

1. Maddow stated it well last night
that the people voted for Obama because of what he promised and spoke about and his positions. Not because of what the Republicans wanted to do.

2. Too bad MSNBC doesn't listen to Rachel!
Because yesterday they interviewed Republican after Republican about the stimulus package. They only seem interested in talking to them.
