    Obama Takes Weekend Off. Wont Sign Bill Till Tuesday?!?!

    I see it needed to be passed RIGHT NOW! Couldnt our lawmakers have read it then voted on it Tuesday? Change we can take a long weekend in.

    After pushing Congress for weeks to hurry up and pass the massive $787 billion stimulus bill, President Obama promptly took off for a three-day holiday getaway.

    Obama arrived at his home in Chicago on Friday, and treated wife Michelle to a Valentine's Day dinner downtown last night. The couple was spotted leaving upscale Table Fifty-Two, which specializes in Southern cuisine, with the first lady toting what appeared to be a doggie bag.

    The president plans to spend the Presidents' Day weekend in the Windy City, and is not expected to sign the bill until Tuesday, when he travels to Denver to discuss his economic plan.

    Both the House and Senate passed the bill Friday night.

    The push to get the bill through before the holiday weekend was so frantic, members of Congress didn't have a chance to read all 1,071 pages of the document before they could vote.

    "In a perfect world it would have been nice to have had more time to process it," said Ilan Kayatsky, a spokesman for Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-NY).

    Meanwhile, Gov. Paterson called yesterday for fiscal restraint with the massive influx of federal aid. His budget office estimated that New York will receive $24.6 billion over the next two years, $4 billion more than first believed

              Dubya was gone most of his 1st 9 months of his administration first term out at 'the ranch'. Including almost ALL of August before 9-11. Plus it's Congress bickering over their earmarks. Not the prez. holding this shit up.

                      So you agree he lied. And there was no rush to get the bill passed. That lawmakers and the American people could have read it over the weekend and voted for it on Tuesday and signed on Wed?

                      Yup Bush did it to, so its ok for Obama. Change we can not really see!

                          I read that Bush was on vacation a total of two years out of the eight years in office, just wish I could find the source

                                      Im not living in fear or paranoia. Im just stating facts. Obama lied and said they needed to pass the bill fast. So fast that no one could read it. Obama promises transparency and this is what we get.

                                      He could have said he was not going to sign the bill till Tuesday and for the law makers to take their time, read the bill and vote on it Tuesday. That would have been what a leader would have done. What he did is what a dishonest crock would do. No better than Bush.

                                              Seriuosly...when a president is "off" or "on vacation" they aren't exactly sitting on a beach drinking pina coladas and reading Tom Clancy. It usually means nothing more than they're not sleeping at the White House. It's not exactly a job you can just walk away from and say "fuck it. let someone else deal with the bullshit this week."

                                                  i'm not gonna argue with you.
                                                  it's clear from your threads here that you have an anti-obama agenda and are unable to see things from an unbiased perspective nor able to have a positive outlook.

                                                  good luck to you.

                                                          So give me some positive spins that come from his latest actions? He appoints three crocks to his cabinet, pushes through the biggest spending bill in history saying theres not enough time to read it, then takes 3 days "off" before signing it. His actions are speaking for themselves.

                                                              Bush was a lying piece of shit. That does not make it ok for Obama to be.

He appoints three crocks to his cabinet, pushes through the biggest spending bill in history saying theres not enough time to read it, then takes 3 days "off" before signing it. His actions are speaking for themselves.
                                                                          1. i don't necessarily disagree with you- the government in it's entirety is a cluster fuck. i don't believe that it is helpful to point fingers at the new president, esp. since he's been in office a mere 3 weeks. moreover, he has shown an ability to move quickly, appointing cabinet members, etc. did he make mistakes? sure. did he know some would have tax issues? doubtful. does that make them *crocks*? no.

                                                                          i also don't think it's fair to ask "give me some positive spins that come from his latest actions?" when he's yet to be in office 1 month but it's clear his passing the stimulus bill was a huge success, clinton didn't have near that sort of accomplishment until his second term. no other president has accomplished such a passage ever (regardless of if it will work or not)

                                                                          other accomplishments in the 1st few weeks of the presidency-

                                                                                              He said he wouldn't sign any bills without a 48-72 hour cool off period or whatever, so the American people can look at it. He didn't say he wouldn't sign the bills, he just said he would give the people time to look at it. Well.. Go look.

                                                                                              I'm pretty sure I don't recall him saying he change shit based off what we think, just listen to us. I listen to people all day, don't mean I give a shit what they say.

                                                                                              I'm kind of confused how he lied? It sounds more like people heard more than what he said.

                                                                                                                              He just tripled it in his first month in office ???

Kinda like FDR can always blame Hoover for getting the ball rolling on the interventionist policies that screwed the economy even more.

Did President Bush start the lax mortgage lending practices ? Did President Bush cause the Auto industry to make stupid decisions ? The policies of past presidents and bad personal and business decisions caught up to us and caused us more issues now than anything Bush ever did ! It is not or even remotely close to being one mans fault !

                                                                                                                                          Credit may be a part of it for the auto industry .... but there's plenty of mistakes that they made that also caused them to fail .... you could right a novel on the number of bad decisions the auto industry has made
