I enjoyed reading it, so can you!

[Mr. Shaman]

So now all the states are going to blow tons of cash, the federal government will Bailout-Barack everyone, and we'll all pay billions more in taxes! You think that's going to help the economy? Heck no!

Yeah.....The Republican-Alternative has always been soooooooooooooooooooo $ucce$$ful at minimizing expenses.



Let's BORROW our way outta Republican-borrowed-debt.....it worked for Sarah!!!​

"The huge increases in tax revenues during her mayoral administration weren't enough to fund everything on her wish list though, borrowed money was needed, too. She inherited a city with zero debt, but left it with indebtedness of over $22 million.

In this time of record state revenues and budget surpluses, she recommended that the state borrow/bond for road projects, even while she proposed distribution of surplus state revenues: spend today's surplus, borrow for needs."

 

[Mr. Shaman]

We have had eight years of the welfare state for corporations, and it has nearly destroyed the economy. I doubt Obama can outspend, or out-deficit, GW Bush, who gave us 8 years of Imperial Big Government Presidency, while you boys cheered him on, hands waving in the air. So don't preach to us - we know, because we have seen it in action, that all of your anti-govenment and anti-spending tirades are just so much smoke.

.....And, mirrors, too....."conservatives" are HEAVY-into-mirrors!!!

​

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Not sure what you call $800 billion in stimulus, plus $350 billion in TARP funds over the course of 10 days. I would say we are well on pace to set many spending records.

Yeah....that's what we need.....more "conservative" predictions/input.



Haven't your policies done enough damage? Haven't you gorged yourselves on enough of The National Treasury?​

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Just watch him outspend ole' Bushy, oh it's change and it's gonna happen, and it's gonna suck!​

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Who owns the NY Post again? It couldn't be right wing propagandist Rupert Murdoch now could it?

.....And, The Sun.....Murdoch's contribution to grocery-store libraries, worldwide.​

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Good ole' Rupert is all demo/lib, just look at Fox news.

Yeah.....LETS!!!!!

​

 

[Mr. Shaman]

This is supposed to be justification for massive spending?

Yeah....how dare ANYONE attempt to jeopardize the budget at HOMELAND $ECURITY??!!!!



​

 

[Mr. Shaman]

What are you talking about? Obama ALREADY is planing to out deficit GWB.​

​

 

[Mr. Shaman]

...you have to spend to make money sometimes.

....And, who knows that, better-than the investors at BUSHCO?!!​

 

[Mr. Shaman]

The Congressional Budget Office shows growth periods immediately following both rounds of Bush tax cuts. The banking failure was what caused the collapse...

<Yaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwnnnnnnnn....>

Yeah.....RIGHT!

(The lack-of-oversight was a mere coincidence, huh?)

[top gun]

smells like redneck in here...

and yes the states need money so yes the feds may give it to them. the other option is the states raise taxes or cut down projects and spend less...thus the opposite of stimulate the econ.

You are correct.

As a matter of fact the following was just recently divulged by a top independent economic research firm...

AMOUNT OF ECONOMIC MULTIPLIER EFFECT

FOOD STAMPS... almost $2 generated into the economy for every $1 put forward.

JOBS PROGRAMS... approximately $1.75 for every $1 put forward.

INDIVIDUAL TAX CUTS... only $1.03 for every $1.00 put forward.

CORPORATE TAX CUTS... actually goes negative on the economic multiplier scale. A dollar put forward actually only comes back at somewhere between 33 cents and 50 cents.

Gee....how shocking you'd forgotten to provide a link to your top independent economic research firm.

[BigRob]

Yeah....that's what we need.....more "conservative" predictions/input.​

So are you attempting to claim there is not an $800 plus billion dollar stimulus that is about to pass? Or are you claiming that there is not $350 billion in TARP money that Obama is about to release as well? Both of these are well documented facts...

Haven't your policies done enough damage? Haven't you gorged yourselves on enough of The National Treasury?

What great logic!

Shaman: You have spent way to much money! But I support the man who after 11 days in office is already looking at a trillion dollar deficit (created by his own proposals).

 

[BigRob]

Yeah....how dare ANYONE attempt to jeopardize the budget at HOMELAND $ECURITY??!!!!



​

This is not related to the major spending spree we are embarking on at present.

 

[BigRob]

<Yaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwnnnnnnnn....>

Yeah.....RIGHT!

Anyone can read the CBO figures, they are public record... You can think whatever you like.
