Biden on the Recovery Act: “If It Fails, I’m Dead”

ABC News ^ | 09-24-2009 | Karen Travers

[Jim Hill]

We need to start documenting the stimulus failures with respect to job creation, especially in states with Democrat Governors (like my state of Tennessee), so that we can controvert the fraudulent numbers that will inevitably be reported. For example, this link documents the effect (or lack thereof) of the stimulus upon Tennessee employment.

Who wrote the recovery act? the Tides foundation?

“submit reports detailing how stimulus money was spent and how many jobs were created by the funding.”

Oh, this is going to be RICH!

Go here and Freep the HELL out of your state as it wastes everyones money:

Oh, oh, if it fails, I am, like, soooo screwed...

[Diana in Wisconsin]

“The total of cost of all the projects submitted by Wisconsin is $1,234,364,263”

That’s a BILLION just in my lousy state, Folks! Our state deficit is running $4.6 BILLION. It don’t add up. No amount of ‘stimulous’ money spread around to any of our states is going to do a freakin’ thing!

a. Money is fungible. You can spread it out, but it just gets thinner and thinner until everyone has nothing, and

b. Our Governor is QUITTING! He’s made SUCH a mess of our state that he’s not running again. Well, he’s running, but AWAY, with his $2 million dollar war chest!

What Biden was really saying was, “You boys get your lies together, cause we’ve got to show something for all those $8 million dollars per jobs we’ve created.”

Never has so much been spent for so little. It would have been better for the economy to just give each one of the flag holders a million bucks, and tell to spend it.

Think of all the time that has been wasted by making productive people sit at unnecessary road construction sights.

Joe Biden: The gaffe that keeps on giving!

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

Keynes: “In the long run, we’re all dead.”

[Nachum]

The list, ping

[GonzoGOP]

At some level, even conservatives have to agree.... Joe is a national treasure!

He is the only person in the administration telling the truth. Sure he is as crazy and a crack smoking gerbil on a bender. But when he said Obama would be tested, he was. When he says he's dead if the recovery fails, politically at least he is correct.

[Sooth2222]

Joe... those birds in the tree outside your office? Well, they're not pigeons!

[hsalaw]

You just can’t make this stuff up. Clown Biden strikes again.

[4yearlurker]

Biden make Al Gore look like a frickin’ scholar.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

And just WHAT is Biden’s significance, again? Anyone? Oh, yeah. He’s ‘the dumb, white, honky who ‘lives upstairs’ in the ‘Jefferson’s apartment building’.

[keats5]

Biden’s has the unfortunate instinct of honestly. That doesn’t help in his line of work.

[norwaypinesavage]

IF it fails? It already has.

[BusterBear]

He’s brain dead right now. Can’t blame it on the stimulus.

[RWB Patriot]

Better start making out your last will, Joe, ‘cause there’s no if about it.
