wound up getting it approved with just three Republican votes in the House and Senate combined.

With Specter jumping sides wasn’t it really only 2?

So, don’t expect either to happen. :D

Obama bet his fiscal credibility on Porkulus, and he lost it.

He didn’t lose much.

The rest of us, however…

Where is a site that tracks how much porkulus has been spent and on what?

Maybe we should put our tax dollars on milk cartons. Just sayin’

Give us our Money Back!

$787 Billion Spent…….Where are the Jobs?
Hey Hussein, you acted reckless in spending our Money. You said it would creat jobs and/or save jobs and it has done nothing. Give us our Money Back!

But, then Barry knows something about shovelling…

Oooops.

‘Cept for those really neat 10 foot by 12 foot signs all along the local Interstate.

“Coming Soon! Paid for with your grandkids dollars! Something!!!”

If you think they screwed up the economy, just wait until they get hold of health care.

The only effect we’ve seen is unemployment rising above even the administration’s most pessimistic estimates.

The worst part, IMO, is the way the porkulus has been used as stop-gap measures to keep state employees at their jobs. That does absolutely nothing to stimulate the economy. We need to demand an immediate cessation to the Porkulus bill.

You are right that the model that has been successful so far for the filthy liar in the White House breaks down when the demonization is groups. That’s why, I am sure, the bastard keeps trying to make Rush Limbaugh the GOP spokesman.

That being said, who is leading the GOP these days. I don’t mean who is running the RNC but where are the strong conservative leaders that are out there capitalizing on the filthy liar’s failures. I see few from the right doing this outside of John Boehner, Jeff Sessions, and Mitch McConnell.

Fully 70% of those polled think that over the long term the stimulus package will do nothing or harm their personal financial situations. That’s 36% who think it will do nothing and another 34% who think it will harm their personal long-term economic well-being.

This parallels well with the “passion index”. Those 30% are true believers. We can shift some of the 36% if we focus on the fact that this debt will only prolong the pain, not solve it. we need to keep reminding people that all he’s done is set up a war chest for the next election cycle at the country’s expense.

Thank you so much glad to know I didn’t imagine it, I guess we won’t be hearing much about it. This whole Obummer Admin. is really scary so I will be as involved as I can in the 2010 elections. Have a great day and God Bless America.

Repubs and conserv media ought to expose the hardships (particularly in the minority communities) caused by Obama’s policies. This is a golden opp. to explain the failures of gov’t programs and reliance on big gov’t, and to promote self-reliance, low taxes, and limited small gov’t.

It can’t work for several reasons. First, education, many minorities may have graduated that public high school,but in reality many can’t read and comprehend at a fifth grade level. Therefor communicating with them is purely VT or verbal. Second, welfare, since so many minorities are second and third generation welfare recipients, there’s no way you’ll get them to speak out against the “hand out” big government programs. Third, crime, the crime levels in their communities is unreal. In addition, so many more, by percentage, are in the penal system at some part of their lives. Certainly not ideal ground to grow conservative ideals

According to Wall Street Journal, your right.

I absolutely agree, but the problem is that many of the poor communities that have been exploited by Obama, his ACORN thugs, and other race pimps have been told this time and again. The culture is so thoroughly permeated with the impression that the government is SUPPOSED to help them, they think that the only reason government programs haven’t worked is because corporations and rich white people have inhibited the government.

It is so obvious, but when you have race pimps like Sharpton, Jackson, and their ilk feeding the communities with propaganda, you can’t get the message across.

Even if media reported on the utter failure that government programs have been in these communities, the only conclusion that will be drawn is the government has to do more.
