Non-Paper Daily, 1.10.2009

*Obama and his team released their economic stimulus plan today. From the limited things I've read it sounds like most liberal pundits/bloggers don't think, at $775 billion, it is large enough. Keep in mind that this is just a starting point, now Congress will start crafting the plan. More commentary as this unfolds.

*Obama, continuing his bi-partisan tradition, is honoring John McCain and Colin Powell at an event before inauguration. Though I disagree with McCain on just about everything, some recognition for his campaign opponent sounds good to me.

*Job numbers from last year came out and the United States lost 2,590,000 jobs, or about %1.7 of our total work force. It's the worst loss since 1982.
