this is the only good thing obama has done since he's been in office....he will be gone in 4 years......how can people say well obama hasnt spent that much compared to bush? that does not justify anything.....and look where the damn money is going...unemployment is 8.1% and yesterday he talks about saving the jobs of 25 damn cops? and for him to say there isnt any earmarks in that damn bill is crazy....he is already gone agaisnt almost everything he promised in his election.....as a researcher myself, this is the one good thing he has done.
