You remind me of a physician who recommends a good leeching, then, when questioned on it, demands to know where the questioner got his medical degree.
Why would she have to do that??? They're all on speed dial. That makes no sense whatsoever.
Hey QBIII (The Messiah is Queen Bee I, Harry is Queen Bee II, that makes Nancy Queen Bee III), the election is over! You won!! Stop complaining, and start governing!!!
From the memo..”Once again this week, as another Democratic President and Democratic Congress worked to address historic deficits and recession brought on by Republican mismanagement of the economy, not a single Republican voted for the legislation.”
And neither did some Democrats:
Call and Thank Dems Who Voted Against the Stimulus Bill
As for mismanagement of the economy, the fingerprints of the Democrat Party (Frank, Dodd, et al) are all over this economic mess.
Keynesian economics is NEVER the right move. Since the The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money, was first published by John Maynard Keynes in 1936 we have accumulated over 70 years of contradictory empirical data.
That was my first thought too. What's a little "anal seepage" if you can eat potato chips on a diet?!
Hey Pelosi and Bubba, if your idea is so great, why not just take all the credit? Why do you care what the effect of not going along with you on this will be for the Republicans?
Going it alone means you get all the glory, but then it sounds to me like you want to share the blame when it blows up. And it will!
It must rankle Hoyer that Pelosi is the lead dog while his view never changes. Those two deserve each other. I’m just wondering when the Blue Dogs will start to defect - my guess is, as soon as O’s numbers start to tank.
Precisely!!!
Angry little monkey aren’t you.
They will try to blame Conservatives, but too many Americans will have been ruined by their incompetent stupidity for them to pass the blame on to someone else, this time.
And Rush, Levin, etc,,, get stronger and bigger audiences every day that goes by. Their “Un-Fairness Doctrine” is really getting difficult to pass along with it.
[She’s nasty, she unattractive, and she’s fake.]
And a snobby elitist as well. What a gem.
And we'll soon have those “National Emergency” centers to take care of that problem!
If you're not stocking up on food and ammo, you'll be hurtin’ when the revolution starts.
“You say leaked? Leaked my A$$. More like published.’
100% correct. This is a PR release. The attack on President Bush, the explanation of the economic financial mess as a “failure to invest,” etc.
It’s pure propaganda.
Balderdash! Anyone who thinks that it was 'balancing the budget' that prolonged the depression is smoking something. Our government is already spending far in excess of what it's taking in. These idiotic Keynesian policies stand to put government debt at 25%+ of GDP within a couple of years. All it's doing is digging the hole deeper. IF this nonsense actually did work (big IF there), any uptick in the economy would cause inflation to soar out of control, knocking it right back in the dirt. However, it won't work, and the response will be an even larger 'stimulus', which will make things even worse. THAT is what prologues recessions/depressions and that's exactly where we're heading with the policies that you are advocating for.
Moreover, as much as tax cuts sound like a good idea, the possibility that they would be spent (thus stimulating consumption and growth) as opposed to saved is a not 100% clear.
Spoken like a true nanny stater. Can't let people have their own money, because they MIGHT not do what we want with it. Far better for the government to confiscate that money and make the decisions for them.
It is good that the GOP is sticking to its principles. It is bad that at present the message was one of blocking as opposed to coming up with alternative solutions.
Color me amazed that someone so ideologically fuzzy would be uninformed. The GOP did have an alternative plan and it was voted down 266-170 yesterday.
I’m suggesting it wasn’t “leaked” and she’s not panicked, even though she should be.
I dunno..it reads like a press release to me. A ‘staged’ leak.
She might be scared all right, because the republicans actually put their plan through the same computer model used by Obama’s own team yesterday and the results were staggering!
THE REPUBLICAN PLAN WOULD ACTUALLY CREATE TWICE AS MANY JOBS AS PELOSI/REID/OBAMA’s PLAN... FOR HALF OF THE COST TO THE AMERICAN TAX-PAYER!
I expect the MSM will do all they can to hide this little ditty from the American people though.
