Unexpected money is always nice if you're on the receiving end.
About 117 million individuals and families will get just that under a tax rebate program announced Thursday afternoon. Most people will get $600 to $1,200, although some will get more and some will get only $300.
President Bush and House leaders agreed on a plan to put $150 billion into people's hands to try to feed the equivalent of an energy bar to the ailing economy.
The Senate is in a bind over whether to try to add to the measure.

It's not free money, it's money they shouldn't have stole from you in the first place. That's right I said stole.
We are trillions of dollars in debt, with waste beyond the imagination. and all of the sudden, there's money to give back.
This aint gonna spur the economy

I don't think we will ever see gas below $2.50 a gallon ever.
