When Emily and I were living in Maine, I developed a strong degree of respect for the moderate Republicans representing the state in Congress. According to the Washington Post, Susan Collins played a strong role in promoting the stimulus package:

Stimulus nonsense
Yesterday's news (I'm a little behind): NY Times is reporting that the Repubs. in congress think Obama is being alarmist by telling them to stop pussy-footing around and pass a damn stimulus package already.
Uh... seriously? Alarmist? Have they not been looking at the unemployment figures and/or reading the news? Spending too much time watching old reruns of Seinfeld?
As my old students back in V-Haven would say:
wow.
