Obama's looking for a free ride. He's likely to get a pretty easy one, given that congress is in the democrats' hands. However, the job of the opposition party is to - duh - oppose. Only through opposition can the people be served, because all points of view will be considered. As they say, competition improves the breed.Given that the amount of money being spent is beyond monumental, opposition (Obama calls is "bickering) is not just appropriate, it is demanded.
Washington Times - Obama: Nation can't afford bickering over stimulus:
"President Obama Saturday morning called on the Senate to quickly pass his more than $825 billion economic stimulus plan, saying Americans 'have little patience' for political bickering and noting that while the bill isn't perfect, it can jumpstart job creation.
Mr. Obama said in his weekly radio address it is 'good news' the U.S. House passed his bill this week, though he did not mention that zero Republicans voted for it."
