Not sure, how I feel.

about a bill to provide $26 billion to keep 300,000 teachers. One part of me says we have had enough bailouts, BUT, if Bush can write a check for $800+billion for Wall St, why shouldn't we help teachers? If they get laid off, they get unemployment ins, and the kids and classrooms suffer. If we gotta spend $ to ease the mess that W put us into, why not pay for teachers? Can't think of a better place to put our money. Can't bail out everyone, BUT, this is money well spent, in my opinion.

There is a big difference between TARP and stimulus, which you conveniently leave out. See:

TARP will not cost taxpayers $800 billion, but the Obama stimulus will.

Big difference.

SO, what's your point, about the teachers?

You call it the Obama stimulus. I call it the wreckage left from the Bush disaster.
