HUH?!?!

A spending freeze??? I thought, wait...what? Obama has done nothing but SPEND MONEY since he got into office using the economy as an excuse for billions being spent wastefully. And now this:

For those who don't know, Scott Brown (a Republican, and a conservative) was elected into the Senate from the citizens of Massachusetts. Background: Massachusetts is probably the most liberal state in the US. The seat that Brown won was previously occupied by Senator Ted Kennedy who was probably the most liberal Senator in the US. This happened just one year after the Democrats swept into power in the 2008 election.

During his campaign Obama was very negative about spending freezes which was something McCain was in favor of. I bet Obama never thought he would be proposing one after just one year in office.

In my opinion, this 'spending freeze' is a direct reaction to Brown winning. The Dems are scared, especially because this is an election year. This is the first of many reactions that will occur this next year, thank you Massachusetts...you've got Washington listening for the first time in one year.
