Most of what you call "pork" is all of about what...maybe 1.5% of the plan? And what did pubs replace that with? How about pub pork? More tax cuts for the wealthy. You guys want to scream bloody murder if a dem puts legislation in there that you don't agree with, but you were okay with the wooden arrows.
What does this have to do with the election? Everything. Obama laid out his economic plan during his campaign and is now implementing some of it. People obviously liked his plan or they wouldn't have voted for him. If they wanted more tax cuts for the wealthy, they would have voted for McCain.
Unfortunately, this board is not representative of most Americans. It is so slanted to the right it's unreal, which, considering our jobs, is totally amazing to me. So when you guys say *most* people don't want this stimulus, you should go outside of this board. What you will find is that *most republicans* don't want this plan, not most Americans. Most Americans are getting fed up with the pubs holding it up (and that includes republican governors).
