It is no secret that Obama's plan was to come into office and spend money. He handed McCain his *** in the election, so the majority of citizens agreed with his plan. Congress is simply giving Obama what he asked for, which is essentially Obama keeping his word.
Right or wrong, it is nice to have a president who does what he said he would for a change.
I don't advocate everything democrats do, nor do I despise everything republicans do. They both have their strengths. We'll never know that until the bipartisanship disappears.
