He's a legislator now!

No, he's still the President. The Stimulus Plan was hashed out by the Prez and some congress critters. Disabled Vets were left out. You should have known that.

The usual BS.

If it works, congress did it, Bush had nothing to do with it.

If it flops, it's Bush's fault, congress had nothing to do with it.

Not at all.

But the president has a whole lot of power.

As to the first question, I don't know how much if any I will get but whatever it is will be used to reduce debt.

From the standpoint that he can veto the bill, absolutely. In theory, he could send the bill back till it was without pork. However, in reality, it can't happen because of the political fallout. Hence I call it a hostage situation. Can't hit the pork (the bad part) without hitting the good part (hostage).

IMO, I blame both groups. The congress for introducing the hostage situation and the president for signing it in. What I see is that people like to blame the president and give congress a free ride. How many times have you seen a bad bill and the first person they talk about is the president?

"Blame"? Maybe. I think it's usually a good thing that they tear at each other's throats and usually a bad thing when they come together in harmony -- like this G-D'd "stimulus" package.

Want stimulus? Cut business taxes.

Gridlock was the founder's intention.
