It is full of it, Zanny, including "wooden arrows designed for use by children (sec. 503)".

-BTW the Senate bill is nearly $850 billion, not $700 billion.

I called my Senators and both of them voted against this barrel of bacon!

Shelby and Sessions stood up against government waste when 75 others caved to wall street.

Thats all I could do!

The dimmycrats got their Mental Health Insurance Coverage into the prok barrel on this bailout bill.

But I don't resent it.
They need it obviously and it is just more billiable hours for me.

it looks like GWB just got his legacy handed to him by the American Public in the 11th hour of his 8 year hijacking of the USA.

How fast could he sign it.

Nobody?

No intelligent dialogue on the passing of this bill?

FAScinating.

Not to argue in favor or pork barrel politics, but the "wooden arrows" thing is entirely legitimate. The government imposed a $0.39 tariff on weapons in 2006, and the arrows themselves cost $0.30. The inclusion was to remove a 130% tax imposed on children's toys
