not stimulus. Obama is back dooring reparations. There is no accountability on how the money is spent. And a great deal of it is being redirected away from shovel ready projects or so-called job creation to cash giveaways. |
|
|
There was a stimulus "1"? |
|
|
Ronnie fixed the problems by cutting taxes. This worked. So that means that the Democrats can't do that because it works. Dumb fu&ks. |
|
All hail the nutjob! Crazy eyes is nothing more than a mouthpiece for all that is wrong in this country and keeping her Party of No in the dumpster. The best thing that happened last November - besides the Democratic Party getting a terrific boost and the US getting a Nobel Prize Winning President - is that this dingbat got re-elected.
The Party of Crazy continues to justify a Democratic Permanent Majority. |

|
Demacrate style, steal from the taxpayer and call it a stylulus, and say its working but we NEED MORE. ITS A DEM PLAN TO BANKRUPT EITHER THE WORKING CLASS OR EVEN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY, I say its time to TAKE CONGRESS AWAY AND JAIL THEM ALL STARTIN WITH OBAMA, AND POLOSI. |
|
|
That can't be correct, I thought Plugs Biden was in charge of watching the stimulus money so it wasn't wasted, you mean he is not doing a good job? Gee |
|
|
There will be no new "Stimulus"! The Gap in our GDP which is probably 2 trillion can't be closed with borrowed money. At the end of the day, production must be increased. Unemployment will start to decrease at the beginning of 2010. Any further actions taken to stimulate this economy, will be counter-productive and harmful. The White House, in its first discussions, decided to cover the "Gap". Let US give it a chance. |
|
Is there any other elected official quite as entertaining as our Michelle?
"When all is said and done, not only have we made no progress, but we’re further from our objective then when we first started."
Not one of her best, I know. But have you noticed that the entire economy didn't grind to a halt last winter? |
|
|
To bad none of it went to small business that employs more than 75%...would have been smarter to give money directly to the people. Stupid stunts like Cash for clunkers was a farse. |

Spontaneous can only resort to name calling to try to make an argument. Instead of throwing out insults why not stick to facts in this blog. Seems to me you are the 'dingbat' in this forum not Michele Bachmann |

Spending more money that we do not have would be a disaster. No we cannot afford another stimulus. Stimulus number 1 should have been thought out better and perhaps it would have been more helpful. Also they have yet to spend the first and are already talking about a second. I believe this shows that they are well aware number 1 is a huge failure. If this government does not stop spending and start showing that they can be responsible we will see a double dip recession and the second will be much worse than the first. They cannot just tax and spend us out of this one. |
|
"More government spending and borrowing to boost our economy is like trying to dig ourselves out of a hole in the sand."
Wingnuts are like wackos standing outside a burning building yelling at the firemen for wasting water. |
|
I don't agree that it is a good idea for government to be creating jobs. I think government should try to create opportunities for women to choose to remove themselves from the workplace and manage a home and raise a family, thereby freeing up jobs.
But Michelle, won't you please run in 2012? We need you. |
|
The unemployed now constitute a huge voting block that is growing. You don't think the Obama administration isn't eagerly aware of this?
Stimulus II is needed to fund that big group of unemployed voters. I think somehow, someway, in 2010, the Democrats will be successful in convincing the unemployed how the Republicans will kick 'em all off of unemployment benefits if they elected.
One thing about the Republicans is that with a multi-voiced party, we'll never be able to defend THAT charge.

I'm with you, I chose to stay home and raise my six kids at a time when most women were out 'finding' themselves by working. It wasn't easy when the only voice you heard all day and many times later because Dad had two jobs, was a munchkin or in my case, a tribe of munchkins. But I wouldn't trade it for the world, we don't have a huge house, big cars or toys but we have some great kids and except for the youngest, all my daughters and dau.in laws are stay at home moms and except for one due to divorce...home schoolers. Having said that, if it weren't for so many buying the feminazi lies thirty plus years ago I don't think our Republic would be in such a mess. Now, young mothers are forced to work because of the TAX BURDEN these political parasites are du;mping on families not to mention the social problems the DemonRATS foisted on our culture with their Great Society and/or War on Poverty. The real WAR was theirs on the American people and this Republic to attain absolute power which they have achieved in 2008. |
|
I have always said (and maintain this stance more firmly than ever) that if the government was married, the spouse would've left long ago because of the financial mismanagement.
The American public (read: taxpayers) need to stop enabling these idiots. |
|
|
Yes time to get a divorce. Time to get rid of these clowns and their credit cards and let the next group know that we are no longer willing to tolerate their irresponsible actions. |
|

if they pass another stimulas then so be it it's our money anyway. I'm so sick too death of you whinny a@@ crackers who have already destroyed america any way. |

Obama told Joe the Plumber My plan is to "redistribute the wealth take from you and give to those who have been oppressed". Unless some of the other media start pointing out Obama's scheme our beloved country, the best country ever developed in the world will be only a memory. When Fox News is shut down we will not have any news source that is not bowing to the Obama prize winner. First 'a crisis", then a response over what is needed, then another crisis, then another overly generous response all from the taxpayers not the recipients , then a new Venezuela with Obama playing Chavez. Is this what we want? I say absolutely no so we must stand up and get rid of these bums. |
|
Wow, that's a classic liberal line, and is indicative of how stupidity breeds on itself.
Now, tell me, darlin', if it's "our" money, where did we get that it? |
|
Obama and Biden both live in a fantasy world.Any money from the stimu-less bill that had anything to do with jobs went to the unions.This administration's policies are responsible for the jobless recovery.
Not one dime of the pork barrel stimu-less money going to the small businesses that employ 75% of this countries workforce.17million of that workforce un-employed with over half a million more losing their jobs every month.Obama and the democrats taking care of their union friends and buying off Wall St.

No it is not our money. It is money borrowed bron countries like China. Yes we will be the signers on the loan and we will have to pay all the interest. We have no money, we are broke. Grow up and face facts. |

Thus far I have heard that the stimulus has save lots of teachers jobs. Yup, union employees. Road work done by union employees. Can anyone say payback. |

In less than 1 year, without Dubya or Cheney or any serious GOP lawmaker in tow, Barack Hussein Obama and Joe Biden have grown our national debt beyond our worst nightmares, made us less safe around the world, backed down and apologized endlessly to the smiles, cheers, and awards of the international community, and can't even pass a health care palooze w/a Democratic majority Congress.
Yeah, things are sure much better!
When Bush left office, we were cringing at 7.0% and 7.5% unemployment. That happened quickly too, it had been growing, but, only slightly until the last quarter of 2008. The guy had around 5.0% most of his term for unemployment.
They need a 2nd stimulus to pay for the new street signs and project signs that praise the Obama Administration: this project brought to you by Obama's 2nd Stimulus.
Unless the GOP and a few fiscally intelligent Dems wake up...and actually fight for what they know is better....the stimulus palooza will pass easily. |

"When Fox News is shut down we will not have any news source that is not bowing to the Obama prize winner."
I tried to watch a portion of EVERY program on Fox News last night from 5 pm until 10 pm because I wanted to see how they would handle the comments of the White House.
They were simply besides themselves with joy! They even pulled Brit Humes out of mothballs to comment on the situation.
Look for their ratings to go even higher because folks never before gave thought to watching Fox News will go to that channel to see WTH are they doing right to acquire the ire of the White House.
Also, I suspect cable and satellite subscriptions will pick up too 'cause lots of folks are still on rabbit ears and don't get Fox News.
Oh, last I checked, DISH didn't carry Fox News as part of the basic package. I run into several folks in WVA last summer who had gotten rid of DISH in favor of DIRECTV because DISH was a POS. I, myself, spent over four hours at a aged neighbor woman's house trying to get her Digital TV system working 'cause DISH didn't carry local channels. I got it going, but told her she'd be better off with DIRECTV. |

Stimulus 2 should be renamed PORK 2. It just seems to me that when you take money away from the people (companies) that should be creating the new jobs they won't have enough left to hire new people. Reducing taxes puts more people to work and thus brings in more tax money. Remember back when JFK had problems with the economy his reaction was to reduce taxes. What happened? Tax revenue went up because people went back to work. No government that tried to be everything to everybody has ever succeeded. |
|

Two things will clean up big government: Term limits on Senators & Representatives and No special deals for congress; They go on social security like everyone else, they go on medicare/medicade like everyone else, they draw no retirement until they reach the appropriate age. Its time to kick their elitest butts out of office and run the government for the people not for congress. |
|

Right you are. Time for the politicians hay day to end. Make them subject to the same rules as the rest of us. |

Why is "the unemployment rate would have been a lot worse" a reason to go out and do something again that didn't do what they wanted it to do in the first place?
If we and our children are going to go through this much pain anyway ... perhaps we should forward a national referendum to require that congress operate under a balanced budget?
And for most of us... BK got it right - "There was a simulus 1?" |

"...instead of being directed into those sectors that could have grown without aid from the government, resources are being shoveled into the economic equivalents of bottomless pits. Americans are forced to prop up domestic automakers that are bankrupt, keep zombie financial institutions going on life-supports, engage in energy policies that literally destroy wealth and produce less energy, and to be taxed even more so government can destroy the part of the medical sector it has not already ruined.
In other words, Americans in productive entities are being forced to give up a large chunk of their own wealth [t]o prop up firms and institutions that might be bankrupt but also are politically connected."

Where is this money coming from? We don't have any money to lend out as far as I know. I am so sick of hearing about all of the disparities about government money when "The highest paid city official in California was earning more than $500,000 as a city administrator when he was arrested. He was charged with embezzlement of city funds. Still, he continued earning a $500,000/year pension, even as he waited for his trial."
If you're sick of this too, join me. I joined The Free Enterprise Nation.

The current Speaker of the House is clearly insane, you can see it in her eyes. She is enabled by the legions of mindless liberal robots and perverts who infest the San Francisco peninsula and ruin what was once a glorious city. Given that the U.S. House is up for reelection in less than a year, I doubt that dozens of midwestern Democrats are going to follow Crazy Nan over the cliff - there is only a certain quotient of lemmings in such a body as the House, but it is amazing that we as a nation are occasionally stuck with monstrosities like Pelosi. I understand that a dump like SF might put one up, but why would the Democrat Party continue to demonstrate its collective madness by tolerating this ghastly creature as its leader? |

Now that the dollar has lost reserve stus thanks to idiot stimulis package we will all need to get used to being much poorer . heres whats in store thanks to obama and pelosi
Economists believe the market rebellion against the dollar will spread until Bernanke starts raising interest rates from around zero to the high single digits, and pulls back the flood of currency spewed from US printing presses.
"That's a cure, but it's also going to stifle any US economic growth," said Schiff. "The economy is addicted to the cheap interest and liquidity."
Economists warn that a jump in rates will clobber stocks and cripple the already stalled housing market.
"Bernanke's other choice is to keep rates at zero, print even more money and sell more debt, but we'll see triple-digit inflation that could collapse the economy as we know it.
"The stimulus is what's toxic -- we're poisoning ourselves and the global economy with it."

"Dish Network is where I watch Fox News all day long."
OK, but do you get it as part of the basic (cheapest) package?
I called them a year or so ago when DISH looked cheaper than DIRECTV. I specifically asked about Fox News and certain Spanish channels I like to watch at times. I was told that Fox and the SP channels would be extra unless I upgraded to a better (more expensive0 package.
Several of my neighbors in West Virginia originally had DISH because they thought it was cheaper. They found that DIRECTV had channels in their basic package that DISH did not.
I've never had DISH, but helped a neighbor. The system is terribly slow at acquiring a satellite compared to DIRECTV.
My neighbor wasn't happy with the technical service either. She is a very old woman -- 88 or 89, and said she had the tech to her house twice before with no results. It took me over four hours to get her entire entertainment package working as it should -- and I'm not any sorta expert on entertainment electronics.

Do you really believe that "tax burden" is the main reason women work outside the home? Look at inflation. Back in the heyday of the stay-at-home mom, our first home (1960) cost $18,000 and the monthly mortgage payment was $97. Our first new car (same year) cost $2000. Our pediatrician made house-calls for $7. Beef chuck cost 3 lb x $1 on sale, most cereal cost 29 cents a box, and a gallon of milk cost 69 cents. I still have a notebook detailing our expenses for a 1967 camping trip to California; we filled up with gas for around $3.50 and a full day at Disneyland for four people, including admissions and meals, came to $31---parking was free.
Compare all of this with what young families have to spend now---$2000 a month for housing is not unusual---one income can't cover it, even allowing for incomes being much higher now. Add to this the monthly cost of contraception (do some googling), the cost of children's clothing and shoes, the cost of Dad's commuting, and other necessary expenses for young families.
In addition, many women choose not to waste their education; it's hardly surprising that a nurse, doctor, lawyer, teacher, CPA, etc who spent years in school preparing to work might actually want to stay professionally active and keep her hands in even in a part-time capacity. Later, when the family needs more income to cover kids' college tuition, or when Dad dies and Mom MUST go to work, she will be in a better position to command a decent salary.
Women work for many good reasons. |

Obama's post-American view is a globalistic one where we are all having our income redistributed to everyone, even folks who will not work, will not change their character, and just mooch off of everyone else. While all this "leveling" is intended for we middle classers, you will note Obama and the liberal elite will keep their big mansions that they want to deny us the right to ever afford. |

How often can your conservatives repeat this Joe the Plumber narrative.... ?
When ever income is redistrubuted up - like it was doing the previous 8 years you laud it as progress and celebrate it - even though the real income of the middle class dropped during that same period. But now that we have a President whose mission it level the playing field such the middle class can eventually thrive again at the expense of the wealthy who have already benefited so much already - it derided as socialism or marxism..
Do you believe a CEO who received $10s of million at AIG, ENRON, EXXON, etc has worked any harder than a construction worker building and repairing highways...
Do you believe the those hedge fund investors who made billions in income using other peoples' money deserve to have a 15% tax rate on that income; while we have a lower tax rate...
That my friend was the Real Income Redistribution that was going on.... why wasn't it a problem to you then or even now ?
Obama has proposed to allow the Bush Tax Cuts on those making > $250,000 to expire and leave them alone for those < that amount...
Unless you are making $250K... what are you complaining about ? |

" stimulus Cutting Taxes and deregulating got us here in the first place. Give me another solution. " ---
All they can see is that it worked for Father Reagan it will work ALWAYS.
Budget Surplus - TaxCut Budget Deficit - TaxCut Economic Stimulus - TaxCut Economy Overheated - TaxCut Inflation - TaxCut Depression - TaxCut Stagnation - TaxCut Go to War - TaxCut End a War - TaxCut
The (R)epublicans have used it as their goodie bag since Reagan.... but Reagan opened up Social Security funds as a source of loan money and we're still paying for those debts.
So this TaxCut thing always sounds good, however, it's beyond giving diminishing returns.
|
|
When Reagan cut taxes the amount of income to the government doubled. What happened was that Congress couldn't stop spending then and they can't stop spending now.
And while all are asked to cut back, when does congress do the same. And if waste and fraud can be halted to pay for a new program, let's get the waste and fraud stopped first and then have the funds in hand.
As to income distribution, Ask Marilyn, in Parade magazine cited that if we redistribute all the wealth to the world, everyone would get $9000. Personally I like capitalism better.
And if Bush was so bad, and spent so much, then Bush's critics have to be consistent and complain that Obama is spending more, and the debt is increasing at a rate unsurpassed in history.
|
|
|
They guy who opened up Soc Security to be spent was Lyndon Baines Johnson, not Ronald Reagan. What Reagan actually did is put the trust fund back in place for Social Security. It was the Democrats who ran Congress that decided they could borrow against those and put those regulations in place at the same time that Social Security was put back into a trust fund. |

Since the war on poverty in the 60's, we have the same number of poor.
Yet, the poor have more and want more.
Every person I have met that believes the government must provide the poor, either does not want to work or they believe that the poor are unable to work.
If we keep spending, then the capital to build and invest to make jobs or to innovate for new or less expensive products will disappear.
Stimulus II could wipe out that capital.
I know people who actually believe the evil people are the rich and the insurance companies.
I worked for an insurance company. They have a small margin of percent profit, which makes them set stringent rules for reimbursements.
And all, except government work and unions, have worked for rich people. Where does the government and unions think they are going to get fees and taxes from once the people have no rich people to work for. |
|
|
yes we need to cut taxes but thats only half of it .you must reduce the size and scope of goverment . tax cuts alone can not generate enough of an increase in revenues to offset the steadily increasing size of goverment . why not cut taxes and instead of a built in increase in the size of goverment freeze all goverment programs and staff at their current levels . they can replace retirees but they can not increase the size or scope of their departments in addition to this we can downsize through attrition all programs that duplicate or overlap each other we can go back to the basics for 10 15 years and most of this current mess will be gone |
