A little over a month ago, the White House and Congress were locked in a prolonged dispute over the omnibus appropriations bill, with President Bush calling Congressional Democrats as fiscally irresponsible for insisting on about $11 billion more in appropriations than the President favored. That was December. This is January. President Bush is now considering an economic stimulus package that runs to more than $100 billion! It makes you wonder.
