The Republicans seem to think there is some
sort of great joy amongst democrats on this bill.
I dont see it that way. I am as skeptical as anyone
else. But it is sort of amazing that the same Republicans
that voted for Ronald Reagan and his huge deficit
spending that put us in really deep are so freaked out.

The Republican line was deficits dont really hurt in
government. This is one thing I really dont get.
When Clinton balanced the budget there was no
great outpouring of love from Republicans.

I realize the deficit that this stimulus will produce
will be huge. But the line was always but jobs will
created... I remember this very clearly in the 80's
from Republicans. It will "trickle down".
Deficits are not bad at all.
I guess those guys are all dead
or something.
