OK, THIS I CAN AGREE WITH

In response to the CNN poll that found Americans don't appreciate the stimulus bill:
A CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey released Monday morning also indicates that 63 percent of the public thinks that projects in the plan were included for purely political reasons and will have no economic benefit, with 36 percent saying those projects will benefit the economy.

Twenty-one percent of people questioned in the poll say nearly all the money in the stimulus has been wasted, with 24 percent feeling that most money has been wasted and an additional 29 percent saying that about half has been wasted. Twenty-one percent say only a little has been wasted and 4 percent think that no stimulus dollars have been wasted.

The Obama Administration has done a terrible job explaining the stimulus package to the American people

Klein's remark also applies to health care reform.
