That's true, but it misrepresents Caterpillar's CEO as saying that the stimulus package won't help. In fact he said that the government needs to spend even more. All he said was that the stimulus package wouldn't help immediately and that there would likely be more layoffs before things improved.

Self imposed silence. Wanted to back off and see what would happen with Obama and the dem congressional control without jumping on everything that I disagreed with.
It does matter. Too much money to violate the calls for transparency.
I think Obama was trying to mislead regarding the Caterpillar stuff. He wanted it to seem as if this bill would make an immediate impact if passed in putting pressure to act immediately.
