What Stimulus Package?

From Breitbart.com

US Senate fails to advance its own economic stimulus
plan

The US Senate failed Wednesday to advance its own version of an
economic stimulus program, boosting the odds for a White House-backed version
approved last week by the House of Representatives.

Backers fell short of the 60 votes needed to end debate and bring the
measure to the floor for passage, with the tally 58-41 in favor.

The vote came amid wrangling in Congress over the details of the stimulus
of some 150 billion dollars to help boost flagging growth by giving tax
rebates
and business
incentives
.

Huh, I thought the senate has it's act together. Sorry, where was Big Mac?
I am speechless!
