Congressional Offices Don't Have the Stimulus Bill, Lobbyists Do

We're receiving E-mails from Capitol Hill staffers expressing frustration that they can't get a copy of the stimulus bill agreed to last night at a price of $789 billion. What's more, staffers are complaining about who does have a copy: K Street lobbyists. E-mails one key Democratic staffer: "K Street has the bill, or chunks of it, already, and the congressional offices don't. So, the Hill is getting calls from the press (because it's leaking out) asking us to confirm or talk about what we know?but we can't do that because we haven't seen the bill. Anyway, peeps up here are sort of a combo of confused and like, 'Is this really happening?'" Reporters pressing for details, meanwhile, are getting different numbers from different offices, especially when seeking the details of specific programs.

Lobbyists we can believe in! Yes they can!

I agree...BUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If Mccain would have been elected it would have been shit loads worse. The appointment of the Drug Czar has atleast given me hope that some libretarian hope is left. There is change just not enough to save us from ourselves. Atleast we have smart people running shit rather than a couple of fools. I would rather be raped by people who will atleast think about it first.

No big deal..... The largest spending bill in the history of the US and the people voting on it haven't read it. No prob!
