Unclogging The Liberal Pipeline

All of the crazy stuff they once couldn't get passed is now in the pipeline, starting with the stimulus package. What's interesting here is the question of exactly where Barack Obama stands on all of this Democratic squandermania.
When he spoke with the Republican leadership on Tuesday, it was obvious he hadn't the vaguest idea of what's included in that $825 billion stimulus package. Yet he's the one who is going to have to scramble to find ways to borrow all that money to pay for the items in the bill.
According to House Minority Leader John Boehner, the president was learning some of what is in the package at the same time Republicans are learning about its provisions.
My question is if when Obama sees all of the gaudy stuff in the bill, will he rear up on his hind legs and veto the thing?
If he doesn't, he will be acknowledging that the real power lies in the hands of Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, a couple of whackos, and for the next four years he'll be doing their bidding.
