By saying we need to act fast, we I meant we need to act now. I believe it doing it right. Not half-assed, and it has happened before. I just don't think it is something we sit on for the next couple of months, thinking hey, someone should do something... Secondly, I do not think bi-partisanship is such a far fetched idea. Look at Senator Lugar. He is a well respected republican, not too moderate, who has reached across the table several times to great success. It can be done. As much as they seem fucked up by the Gotcha media... I have a feeling that 30 dems and 30 repubs. actually can find something they all can agree on...
What is the other option? What we have now... a bill that appeals to just more than half of America, at the expense of a trillion dollars for a poor economy, which will rely on confidence from the American people that they are ok to be consumers again... and that is not going to happen.
