but my computer died and now has made a miraculous recovery.
Every monning I have been watching Morning Joe on MSNBC. As you may or may not know, he is a Republican and a conservative. Every day this week they have had various people on to talk about the state of the economy and the "stimulus" package. It's so freaking confusing with dueling economists, dueling analysts, dueling historians. The only thing that everyone agrees on is that something needs to be done and done right away; and that it is better to wait and get it right as opposed to doing something stupid quickly.

I do have strong reservations about the stimulus package. Clearly what the House came up with is just so far off base that it is laughable. Pelosi and her posse need to go. I'm hoping that the Senate Dems and the Republicans can stop talking about it long enough to actually do something with it that will make some sense. I see tonight where they think they have some kind of tenative agreement.

I'm very discouraged with Obama and the Democrats. Somewhere in the back of my mind, I'm just starting to consider whether I want my crow grilled or roasted because I have a feeling I'm going to be eating it real soon. You'll never get me to admit that McCain was a better option, but I'm beginning to feel a lot less enthused about Obama. I'm very unhappy with his "we won, they lost" comments. I want a &^%$ bipartisan effort to get something going on this economic situation, regardless of which party has the smart ideas.

Where have all the smart people gone?
