From Ron Gilliam. . .
There's no doubt there is some good stuff in this package, but in my opinion, we could have saved $700 billion plus had POTUS' advisors raised the issue months ago by going directly to the people. Apparently the House passed legislation regarding this, but the Senate refused to do anything about it. Whether this is true or not, the pres. advisors should have been on top of it. That's why they make the big bucks. Had the American people known what the repubs were up to months ago, there might have been a difference at the polls. The dems need to get more proactive, again in my opinion, otherwise there's going to be a very nasty 2 yrs.
Feingold and Dean have already stated that they would not oppose him in '12. I would consider bringing Feingold on as a senior advisor. Dean, also, although he might not want to be tied down. Right now the president has no one with real legislative experience at his disposal and this is not good. I hope when he makes changes they will include more progressives.
If the soul is left in darkness, sins will be committed. The guilty one is not he who creates the sin, but he who causes the darkness.
