The One is Outraged

Obamessiah is upset and calls wallstreet shameful for 18 billion dollars in bonuses last year. I am fond of saying that timing is everything, so I think that wallstreet kind of goofed by taking bailouts and then getting payouts of their own (although I suppose some of these bonuses could have come before the bailouts). This coming from a president who just got the biggest socialist spending bill in America's history through the house of representatives. There is $200+ million dollars in STD prevention alone. I think there is something on the line of $600 million for government employees getting new cars...they can't be seen in last years model!

All 177 republicans in the house voted against the bill, as did 11 democrats. Kudos to the GOP (and the 11 dems) for finally getting a backbone and showing some fiscal responsibility. Let's hope it is a sign of things to come.
