The Stimulus Package and other Lies...

If you watch and decipher the (political) news as much as I do (and , apparently David Andersen does as well!) you should be somewhat troubled by this "stimulus package". Those who are not are Liberal ideologues who believe their chosen leaders can do no wrong, which is pure head-in-the-sand thinking and I have no time for that or you. Wake up, people! You can be supportive of you party and your chosen leaders, but it sickens me when you walk in lock step to everything they do and say without doing any of your own research. Do I believe and support everything the Conservatives put forth? Hell, no. I didn't even support our choice for President! As I have said on many past occasions, I am more than willing to support our new, very charismatic President and se what happens, however if his leadership on the stimulus package is any indication, it will be a VERY short Honeymoon. First of all, this is NOT a stimulus package- it is a pork bill of unGodly proportions! out of $900B, less than half is actually expected to "stimulate" job growth and opportunity. Half of THAT won't go into effect for years to come. The stuff that DOES take immediate effect will be: prison repair and reform, condom distribution in HS, and various social programs that they already admit will have NO direct effect on the economy- it will simply provide more free stuff to their party members, like illegal aliens, lower income families, etc. I'm all for helping them as well, but NOT IN THIS PACKAGE!A true leader would have said "Enough. This is serious business, not partisan politics as usual. Take all of this crap out and reduce it to a REAL stimulus package and get these people back to work!" Somehow, I can easily picture FDR, Truman and Reagan saying those exact words...However, the curtain is pulled back and it is revealed- the statistic that said Obama WAS the most Liberal Senator in office is, in fact, true. He not only supports this "pork-laden future tax burden for years to come", but he had the nerve to "call out" those who refuse to support it, claiming they obviously do not want to help the Unemployed Americans. If anyone can take the leap and explain to me how distributing condoms in High School and pledging millions upon millions of dollars to such a program will directly put the construction worker to work, and in a way that makes absolute sense, I will switch parties immediately and register Democrat today!There is a reason why this "package" concerns me so and why it hits home so closely and very few really know this reason, but suffice it to say- it does. There are thousands upon thousands more unemployed than what is reported; some have NOT chosen to collect Unemployment, but they are unemployed just the same. Some are so terribly underemployed that they would MAKE more on UI, but choose not to collect and rather earn something. They make so little and have families to take care of. Now, the "partyof the People" have their perfect opportunity to turn our capitalist society into one of Socialism- this has been their dirty dream for decades.History will reflect that this package went a long way in making that dream a reality.
