In today’s podcast at 11AM Eastern, Congress passed the $410 billion spending bill (which is not to be confused with the bailout, the stimulus, or the budget), which was approved after Timothy Geithner wrote a letter to three Senators.
When asked about the letter from the guy who was stumped by TurboTax, White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said:
“It’s like a presidential signing statement, except it’s not the president, and it’s not a signing statement.”
Upcoming showdown?
Chat’s open at 10:45AM. See you there!
