Please don’t embarrass the President again!

I hope the signers of the new Stimulus Bill have written something
reasonable, coherent and above reproach to offer the President.

I have always been mindful of the fact, “If you start off wrong, you end up wrong” and I have never seen it to fail. Now that I have gotten older, when the painter is over a half-hour late just to take my order, I say, “No thanks! I’ve changed my mind.” When I was selling my old house, a real estate agent was forty five minutes late after I had given him instructions as to how to get to my house. He was shocked when I told him I had changed my mind and why. For too many years I have tried in earnest to turn around a situation that started off badly. It can be done but it is not usually worth the enormous amount of energy it takes.

So it is in my opinion, the first Stimulus Bill started off wrong. The mental energies were not in their appropriate places. The word skewed comes to mind. I would hope the new preparers of the bill scrapped and guttered the old bill as do renovators of old houses in re-gentrified neighborhoods. Many times it does not matter how long it takes as long as it is done right and if this new Stimulus Bill is not done right this second time around, I for one will be talking about it like a MF! Please do not embarrass the President a second time regarding this bill. Get it right! Give him what he wants.
Fighting for the dignity of my Ancestors,
God bless Bill Gates, WPFW, C-Span and the spirits of the unborn for the help,
BB
P.S. Perhaps the President should consider contracting out the bills he wants to be written. He makes an outline what he wants and leaves the rest to the contractors. It could also be open to the public. Make it good enough to qualify for some journalistic or literary prize. Nobel? Pulitzer? I've seen worst.
