    So what's the doggone hold-up.Probably because it's a Massive amount.
    Where much will not be applied towards Covid-19 relief.It is being Tailored by
    Nancy Pelosi folk { over 600 pages } for many Democrat Pet Projects.
    We saw what doggone good Obama First Major bill of his Presidency
    worked.The $ 787 Billion American Recovery and Reinvestment act of
    2009.As John Boehner said " Five years and hundreds of Billions later
    and Millions of families are still asking ' where are the jobs ' ".
    McConnell adding " Five years later,the stimulus is No success to
    celebrate.It is a tragedy to lament."
    It was used for Keeping Teachers from being layed off
    and rebuilding roads and bridges. "
    The real fix would have been to roll-back regulations and
    and approve the Keystone Pipeline.
    Both things Former President Trump did with dynamic results.
    I think Mark Levin has a point concerning this Present President.
    That he's out to prove he can Out Spend and Transform even more
    than Obama did.Surpassing F.D.R.
    Always keeping in mind the Columbia Marxist taught lessons of
    of a Cloward-Pivan strategy.

    The hold up is that Congress spends more time caterwauling than actually doing the job they were elected for...

    This isn't about Plans.It's about passage of a Covid Relief bill.
    The January 2009 Obama Relief bill { $ 787 Billion } less than
    half of this attempted $ 1.9 Trillion Covid Relief bill did little to
    make americans better off.Unless making sure teachers aren't
    layed off.The same pack of malcontents who refuse to let Public
    Schools open.Scott Walker proved how to manage an Incompetently
    managed Democrat Economy { Wisconsin }.Where Public servants and teachers
    are rarely layed off.Same thing in Kentucky with Matt Bevin.

    You mean by Lying.Like what those 2 new Senators from Georgia
    bragged about.
    Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff both campaigned and bragged
    that If elected there would almost Immediately be $ 2,ooo Covid
    checks in the hands of Americans.

    It most certainly is about plans; the Democrats have a plan for Covid relief. The Republicans are saying only "no". If I am tired of "no" from any side. Unless the more conservative members come up with a plan of their own it will be taken that they do not want Covid relief. I hope that would be inaccurate. If there is no proposal other than the current plan the current plan or something close to it may pass which I am sure they don't want. All sides must begin to say this is what I stand for not "no." This is the stuff gridlock is made of.

    The democrats plan is what it always is.To load up a bill with
    Pork to satisfy their unearthly constituency groups.
    Unless you are unfamaliar with Nancy Pelosi's { before she lost her
    speakership } famous quote :
    " We have to pass the bill so that you can find out what
    is in it. " -- March 2009.

    So what parts of the bill, if any, are acceptable? What is unacceptable? What is an alternative that you would be willing to support to help covid relief?
    This isn't about Nancy Pelosi it is about Covid relief.

    I highly doubt there is ONE Pol { politican } who doesn't think this
    IS about Nancy Pelosi.Nothing else explains her craven attitude
    about her Opposing party.She goes Out of her way to be rude,
    condescending and virtually makes up crap to get her way.
    Virtually Nothing thus far by Biden and his Cabal is aimed at
    UNITY.It's about Control and proving something.
    That " Elections have Consequences ".Pelosi used that numerous
    times in 2009.Until she Lost her speakership.Then decided she would
    Not step down from the leadership as most all GOP Speakers have.
    In fact,she managed to throw herself a Thank You party over her defeat
    as Speaker.

    Question: Did you support Trump's $2,000 to;

    a. Near 44 million kids
    b. Near 74 million individuals
    c. Near 79 million married couples

    Total recipients; near 200 million X $2,000 = $400 billion

    For your info; I didn't!

    However, the question is; How many Trump supporters/hypocrites have supported his $2,000 package, and are now supporting a targeted relief plan?
