Amazing is the only way to describe the, questions and comments about the Stimulus Package. Less than two weeks ago most of those asking questions today, where as quite as a church mouse. Within two weeks a local news paper ran an editorial regarding the prohibition of photograph of returning dead soldiers; Congressmen are talking of waste, but did not ask one question about the more than 8 millions unaccounted for at the beginning of the liberation of Iraq; Senators question union members about a negotiated contract with the most concession of any contract negotiated, but not one Senator has spoken out about the CEO’s bonus packages in the face of a taxpayer bailout. Did it take eight years and two weeks to find a voice?
