Let's just start calling it the SPENDING bill and pre-empt all the bullshit |

Just call it what it is! Spending = stimulus, as Obama has so clearly pointed out today, so WTF, let's just be direct about it!!
PASS THE SPENDING BILL!! NOW!!!!

4. There is another spending bill coming up right behind the next big bank bailout bill- |
|
Getting hard to keep track.
This next spending bill is , I think , the regular budget--Pelosi took it off the calendar temporarily.
