		<description>Not cool, Babs. 

Note what one of your coolest constituents recently told the Huffington Post.

&quot;I support the stimulus package. But when I look at it in its entirety, I fear that we may soon look back and say that we missed a huge chance to go bigger and bolder. After all, there were three flaws with the old economy that has crashed: it favored consumption over production; debt over smart savings; and environmental damage over environmental renewal. Some parts of the stimulus package seem to be more of the same -- trying to prop up the old, failed economy. That strategy simply won&#039;t work -- but we could waste a lot of money and time trying. Instead, we need a new direction for our economy. You can&#039;t jump halfway across a chasm -- you just end up falling into the abyss.&quot;

		<description>Oh it&#039;s only getting started. Now we&#039;re giving tax breaks to people who buy cars!

Whatever. It&#039;s clear that folks in Congress would rather cater to the failed party than to their own constituents. And funny thing, every time the&#039;ve capitulated to the Failed Party, the Fail Party vote against everything anyway.

Hmm.</description>
