Laura Tyson, a member of Obama’s Economic Recovery Advisory board, thinks we should consider another stimulus, this one focusing on infrastructure projects because the Porkulus bill in February was "too small.".....Rasmussen has a new poll out today which indicates that 60% of Americans are opposed to a second stimulus this year while only 27% are in favor. 2010 is coming and many in Congress, of BOTH parties, are in jeopardy of keeping their jobs. People are fed up with out of control spending in Washington and their - our - discontent will be made clear in the voting booth.

Every corrupt freeloader in Congress better read the handwriting on the walls in Congress; they’re TOAST! Everywhere I go these days, the hot topic of conversation is “VOTE THEM ALL OUT.” Obviously, the morons in DC and in state capitols throughout the country haven’t read the Tea Party signs. DemoRATs, Republicans, and Independents want all incumbents OUT! The anger is palpable; the anger is real; and the anger is going to get these human waste voted out.

The “stimulus” didn’t work. A rational person would say “that didn’t work, let’s try something different”
A liberal says “gotta do it again, only stronger.”

We don’t need a second stimulus. The first one isn’t working and it won;t work. The only thing that will save our economy from further ruin and complete catastrophe are two necessary ingredients namely across the board and deep tax cuts and the immediate ceasing of gocernment spending and then to take deep cuts in the government budget with the exception of national defense, the intelligence services and our military. All else should face very deep cuts as necessary.
