32. Because we have to mitigate the damage for a few months


by throwing money at the top end of the problem in order to get Dems in to start working on the bottom end which are longer term fixes.

Right now Republican obstruction will keep us from getting anything we Dems want in a package fix.

It being done in tranches and with oversight will allow for some control.

I'm angry as anyone else here about it and there will be plenty of time to judge the way our Dem leaders handle this. So far Obama has made the right moves IMO by getting out in front of this thing with setting the principals.
