Let's just start calling it the SPENDING bill and pre-empt all the bullshit

[Duer 157099]

Just call it what it is! Then when they try to say there's too much "spending" in it, everyone can roll their eyes!!!

Just call it what it is! Spending = stimulus, as Obama has so clearly pointed out today, so WTF, let's just be direct about it!!

PASS THE SPENDING BILL!! NOW!!!!

1. Obama just did in his speech to the democrats in Williamsburg

..."What do they think a stimulus package is? It's spending to restart the economy! That's the whole idea."

[Parker CA]

3. That was such an perfect quote. You could tell by his face that he was almost shocked that people

don't get it. He had that look like, c'mon, guys, stimulus IS spending! Get on it!

2. because we're the majority and we get to frame the debate.

4. There is another spending bill coming up right behind the next big bank bailout bill-

Getting hard to keep track.

This next spending bill is , I think , the regular budget--Pelosi took it off the calendar temporarily.

I imagine some of the things taken out of this will be put into the next one-with fights of course.

5. We should call it the "JOBS" Bill and make the repukes

scared to vote against it!

[tavalon]

6. That's the correct framing right there!

7. Yes exactly! JOBS, JOBS, JOBS! Force the GOP to vote against JOBS. n/t
