In case, you dont understand what the Hastert rule was, it required support of the "majority of the majority" (ie a majority of Republicans at the time) in order for an amendment to even be considered.

Pelosi's first action as Speaker was to end that rule.

Good on her.

Most objective observers recognize that the recovery bill projections are for an 18 month - 2 year time span.

Where are all the "shovel ready jobs" being stimulated? Or was that more BS to get the bill passed. President Obama says the stimulus will create or save 3.5 million jobs. Where are they?

Don't you think the "Demon"izing is little childish?

Absolutely not. If the shoe fits...
