I also don't understand why Obama had a press conference aobut the Economy when he kept saying he was not going to go into specifics on it and let his people who were going to have a press conference later on it talk about the details.
I thought the initial remarks were about the stimulus package, but the press conference was about anything - Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, the economy. In particular he was referring to two very specific things, when talking about the press-conferences today - how the rest of the TARP money will be used, and what foreclosure relief measures will be taken. Both of which are not part of the stimulus package.
BTW, the transcript is here
