I see the Rush devotees (i.e. Dale) below are hoping that President Obama fails, but his bold actions- that cost money now- are our only hope for getting out of this mess created largely by the deregulation (i.e. corrupt graft) Republican crowd running this country over the last decade. Reagan's "Supply Side" low tax (to the rich, anyway) aka "Trickle Down" approach just led to HUGE decifits and NO investment in infrastructure, etc. for this nation. The money Obama's spending, like FDR 2 generations ago, is bailing us out of a Republican mess and investing in our future. At least the deficits he's creating are investing in health care, infrastructure, energy and education; all neglected under Bush and the Republicans.
