Do I hear the band striking up with “Nearer My God to Thee”?
PORKULUS was supposed to be SHOVEL READY JOBS TO FIX OUR CRUMBLING INFRASTRUCTURE. What did B.Hussein and the filthy rats do with the first 800 Billion???
Is there something wrong with the infrastructure we have now that’s holding up economic activity?
IIRC, even Keynesian economics requires that the government spending be targeted on something that is needed to spur further economic growth.(also IIRC, Keynes had changed his mind about all this before he died.)
$50,000,000,000 payout to unions. Again.......
One would think the president has absolutely no economic sense or business acumen (/S).
NO
We don't need a 'new' way! Give us back our paychecks and get the frik out of the private sector you frikin' Marxist-community-organizer!!! You asshat Democrats drove this economy into the ground with your sub-prime loan scams and you are still driving the economy into the ground. NOVEMBER IS GOING TO BE A HEAD ON COLLISION FOR YOU ASS-CLOWNS AND CRY-BABY LIBERALS WHO NEED A NANNY-STATE. How pathetic is an American to want the federal government o take care of them. And yes, black America... you live off the federal government then you are still a slave. Enjoy it idiots!!!
China and India are making silicon chips.....we’re digging holes.

Yeah, how about using the rest of the unspent stimulus money? There’s a lot of money sitting there!
Or is Obambi saving that money for 2012, so he can shower the peasants with bread and circuses just in time to save his skinny ass from being fired?
Not content with driving off a cliff, he wants to find a higher cliff.
Hey Hussein,
SPEND the 300 billion from the 878 billion, that you are saving as a Democrat slush-fund for your re-election year!!!
Government can only spend. It has no money of its own to “invest”. It either prints money or taxes it away from its owners. One of these days, and soon, that little economic truth is going to become rather obvious, perhaps except to the ideologues and kleptocrats who are currently running Washington and our nation into the ground.
Didn’t we hear all this about infrastructure and “shovel- ready jobs” in Feb. ‘09, as BO lied to get his $850 Billion failed stimulus bill passed?
The only thing that should be shovel-ready now is the Democrat Party.
If he took this 50 whatever and went in with India to co-develop (if they matched it) a "Thorium Nuclear Reactor" that is functional, has a base design that can be replicated in a turnkey fashion it would make sense.
If he did this in the future history books would note him for this brilliant forward thinking move that changed us to energy independence.
The problem is Obama probably thinks Thorium is a comic strip character....
The problem is this guy and Congress have spent Trillions on crap
Had they spent it on Nuclear Power, Natural Gas Conversions of our Big Rig Fleet, Coal to JP4 via the Fisher Tropsch process for our Airliners and Military Aircraft, we would have held our nose and said yes because in 10 years we could have told the Saudi's to stuff it.
What a missed opportunity to change our energy situation and our balance of trade.
He’s either learned nothing by the experience of nothing being gained by wasting taxpayer’s money previously, or he’s a complete idiot, or he’s trying to bankrupt this country, or all of the above.
Where’s that Vaudeville hook when we need it?
Amazing that AP actually admits that this is not about stimulus but about creating a supposed sense of stimulating the economy for political gain. Needless to say this is all an illusion and simply a last gasp to add to the Cloward-Piven strategy with the capper being a lame duck Congress.
This is plain thuggery and will back fire. The Dems are in panic mode because they know that millions of voters don't but the MSM protection racket anymore and millions of newly-enlightened voters are busy breaking out of their MSM-following coma and backtracking to review so many of the lies they bought before.
