Philisophical Differences Are Moral Differences

Obama has asked Republicans to put aside political and philosophical differences and "do the American people's business right now." But really, what he's saying is put aside your values, morals, principles, and ignore the promises that you made to your constituants and do what the Democratic majority, and Obama himself, want.

All he's doing is forcing the Republicans into a no win situation. If they stick to their guns, they look like they're obstructing an economic recovery (which will actually cause more problems). If they cave, they share the blame when this thing doesn't work and lose their political credibility as Republicans.

Don't do it! Block harmful government spending! Taxing from (and/or borrowing on behalf of) a naive or unwilling population is theft!
