Wasn't this thing finally passed last Friday and the president is waiting till Tuesday to sign it into law?

I thought he was in an all fired hurry to ram it through congress and have everyone vote on it without reading, then he is waiting four or five days to sign it into law.

Something is just not sitting right with that.

//All of the above is just my opinon and I may not have all the facts but I really think that someone had better read what was voted on and the version that he is taking the time to sign.

You all can quit speculating- its law now...

Stimulus: Now for the hard part
A $787 billion economic recovery package became law on Tuesday with the simple stroke of Obama's pen. Knowing whether it's working? Not so easy.


NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- President Obama on Tuesday signed the $787 billion American Recovery and Reinvestment Act into law.

But he's far from being able to declare "mission accomplished."

"Today does not mark the end of our economic troubles," Obama said before signing the bill at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. "But it does mark the beginning of the end - the beginning of what we need to do to create jobs for Americans scrambling in the wake of layoffs; to provide relief for families worried they won't be able to pay next month's bills; and to set our economy on a firmer foundation."

Indeed, even though debate over the legislation was fraught with partisan fighting and what some characterize as strategic missteps by the nascent administration, getting the law passed was the easy part.

Far more difficult will be gauging whether the legislation's trademark initiatives - which include improving physical infrastructure, investing in energy projects and providing financial relief for families by way of tax cuts and increased government benefits -- are really doing the trick.

The first step is to stem the recession in the near term. In the longer term it will be to put the economy on a path to sustained growth and greater efficiencies in energy production, health care and other areas.

Now the local lobbying will begin on getting their cut...
