Bidden admits mistakes

[Alsatian]

I understand that Joe Bidden was on "Face the Nation" yesterday and said that some mistakes were made with the Stimulus Package. I didn't watch the show, and I didn't read the complete brief of the show that I saw on-line. It seems Bidden said "nobody knew" that the economy was so bad, and he and Obama are revising downwards their promises for "jobs saved" by their stimulus package. Another separate piece of information, the Obama administration is scurrying to revise the Stimulus Package, to advance more of the spending to near term rather than long term (all I've got say about that is . . . DUH!!!!).

Anyway, my comment is that it smells like Obama and the Democrats generally are not so sanguine today about the wisdom of their stimulus package and are busy making adjustments and reving up damage control. You know, I forgot, can someone remind me how many total Republicans voted for the stimulus package -- I mean adding up all those Republican votes in the House of Representatives and all those Republican votes in the Senate? Oh wait, now I remember. It was three (3). Three Republicans voted for the stimulus package. Do you agree with me, are you discerning clear signs that the Democrats see that this stimulus package is wrong in many ways and that they have major exposure? Comments.

Of course they have major exposure. The question is whether the electorate is intelligent enough to discern the problems. After all... look who they've put in charge.

If Obama is the Rock Star, then Biden is his roadie that cleans up the puke after the party.

I saw something hopeful today, Biden is considering another run for the presidency, let's hope that he does so that the Republicans will get the Oval Office handed to them on a silver platter.
