Clinton Announces Stimulus Package

In her highly contested bid to win the Democratic party nomination for president of the USA, Hillary Clinton has announced her support for a stimulus package to be initiated as soon as she takes office.

Details of the plan have not been entirely released, although a preliminary outline has been discussed in focus groups.

"I have listened to the people of America," Mrs. Clinton said, "and I have heard about your struggles and hardships, and I plan to do something about it."

The general outline of the plan is for a stimulus package to be sent to most American households. This includes all households below $150,000 in income, which will literally see a package delivered to their door with the stimulus inside. Households with higher income may not receive a package, although it is not clear what the cutoff income will be.

Mrs. Clinton suggested that not all Americans will receive a stimulus package.

"People with higher incomes have plenty of resources," Clinton said, "and they will just have to stimulate themselves."

I just finished watching my latest NetFlix DVD called "Hotel Rwanda", with tears still in my eyes.

My first time to view the movie but having been a Peace Corps Volunteer in Malawi in the middle '60's, it was so realistic.

My question to the "monster" is: where the Hell were you then and your sleaze ball husband.

What a tragedy and what about your "leadership" then?

Hillary, you are more filled with stuffing than a 25 pound Thanksgiving Turkey.

In fact, you are simply a turkey, with no stuffing.

You make me sick!

Hey Hillary, you are a U.S.Senator! Submit your economic package now, see how it shakes out, and if it's a winner, you may win the Presidency. DUH!!!!

Problem is, she KNOWS once it is scrutinized, it'll get KILLED.

Same goes for Barack Obama. They are Senators, yet, never drew up legislation for any of their campaign agendas.
