Wow... this means Republicans agree with 98.56% of Obama's bill
A whopping 1.44% of the proposed stimulus bill is what Republicans are whining about

The link above characterizes the waste the GOP says is in the bill.
This amounts to about $13B in "pork" as defined by the GOP. So 13/900 * 100 = 1.44%

Obama spoke of this today again to Brian Williams, and I think it might be a very HUGE point.
Congressional republicans agree with almost 99 percent of Obama's spending. They are only upsets about $13 billion or so.

Not much room there to complain when speaking on behalf of the entire party, is there 240?

congressional repubs compiled a list of all the stuff they didn't want in this bill:

It totaled $13 billion or so. Less than 2% of the total. They collectively support the rest.
