Time to be aggressive with second stimulus

Another day and more bad news on the economic front. President Barack Obama has take the right tack in seeking solutions, but I am afraid he is being too timid — especially with unemployment continuing to rise, bankruptcies hitting pensions funds hard and foreclosures continuing to be a plague on the nation.

I’m not sure we can wait much longer for stimulus part two.
