would have voted overwhelmingly FOR it instead of threatening to filibuster (or filibustering) - it every time a stimulus bill was proposed.

In 2011 in order to extend unemployment insurance (a [font size="4"]big[/font] winner among the independently wealthy ) - Obama had to agree to extend the infamous Bush tax cuts - for the wealthy (most of which went to the wealthiest 10% of the population) which played a part in creating the TRICKLE DOWN - DEREGULATION disaster - the worst economic disaster this country has seen since the First Great Depression.
