There is true hope now as the republicans are about to take the house where money is spent. The light at the end of the tunnel is flood of 60 or so new republicans who want to get the budget under control.
Go to that light embrace that light. That light is true hope
By going back to those failed right wing policies that got the country into the mess in the first place?

Well 2 years of total Dem control didn't fix anything..did it ?
Just got us more into debt with continued spending.
The fiasco called the stimulus got many Americans angry once the projects started to surface...bridges to nowhere, money unaccounted for, money given to non existent districts..the list goes on and on.

No signs saying that light is anything but an approaching train

First democrats have had congress for 4 years. Second the left have tried to pass numerous productive bills but "NO" keeps abusing the filibuster. The only way to get any republican votes is to load the bill with pork for big business or other special interest cronies. Once this is done the bill is so watered down it's basically useless.

Yes, it did. The economy has improved quite a bit and continues to improve. It's a global problem. Plus business can't return to the bubble-bloat of 2007 and that has to be adjusted for. Just because you all have RW media-stimulated ADD doesn't mean you're not going to HAVE to be patient.

Oh, did the stimulus program stipulate where the states and businesses had to spend their money?
Pathetic and anemic. we are scraping along in a jobless recovery, narrowly avoiding a double dip each month. This is depressing.
I know! Bush left this country in shambles!! At least the Democrats have put the economy on the right track for growth again. BTW, increase spending leads to jobs.

Lol nearly 10% unemployment, anemic GDP growth and run away spending are lefts idea of "on the right track". No wonder they will get kicked to the curb on Tuesday!
By the way if increased spending leads to jobs maybe we can just increase it by a couple more trillion and employee everyone! The left is so silly!
Good luck with them actually doing what they say. I doubt either party changes the economy much. Reality is many of the jobs are not coming back and many American's have themselves to blame for living beyond their means in the past.
Since bills are started in the house . the republican need to start bills with real spending cuts and let the senate or president kill them

John Murtha airport..I guess that's an example of Republican pork ?
