<-- President Barack Obama walks outside the White House on Friday, the day an economic-stimulus package he pressed for quick passage won approval from Congress. Obama is set to sign the measure Tuesday in Denver. (Evan Vucci, The Associated Press )President Obama will come to Denver to sign the landmark economic stimulus bill.
The bill-signing, an unusual event outside of Washington, will be Tuesday at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science in City Park. The president also will give a speech about the economy.
Attendance at the midday event is by invitation only, and all invitations have been distributed. (your Blogger is checking his in-box frequently).
CNN reported that a senior administration official cited a desire to get "away from the politics of Washington."
Colorado state G.O.P. Chair Dick Wadhams is criticizing the President's decision to wait until Tuesday, saying if the bill was such an emergency, he should have signed it right away. This is the same loser (and one-time heir apparent to "Turd-Blossom" Karl Rove) who was campaign chair for Virginia wanna-be Presidential contender Sen. George Allen, he of the "Macaca" YouTube fame; and then moved here to Colorado to help the party lose the Governorship, the 2008 electoral votes, and the Wayne Allard U.S. Senate seat (serving as campaign chair for Rep. Bob Schaffer) to Rep. Mark Udall.
