Here's our Twitter topic of the day:

Democratic and Republican senators are trying to cut $50bn in 'wasteful spending' through an amendment to Obama's economic stimulus plan.

Obama has suggested he will accept small changes to tax cuts in the bill and is willing to eliminate some of the spending projects.

If you were the president, what would you eliminate or add to the bill so it will pass?
