Time Magazine: Listen Up, Dummies! Obama's Stimulus ‘Clearly Helped’
JWR ^ | 09.09.10 | Larry Elder

Americans, says Time magazine, are too dumb to appreciate the wonders of President Barack Obama's $787 billion "stimulus" package.

Gobsmacked by polls that show Americans don't believe government is smart enough to take money from taxpayers and give it to those it considers deserving, Time says: Voters tell "pollsters that even programs that have clearly helped (emphasis added) the economy, like the $787 billion stimulus, did no such thing."

The “economists” at Time need to explain why a government, tax supported stimulus “clearly worked” and “trickle down” cannot possibly work.

Of course the stimulus has 'clearly helped'.

Its helped government bureaucrats, union members and the welfare class.

To a leftist, who else matters but powerful democrat constituencies?

The rest of us can go p*ss up a rope, I guess.

Has there ever been an accounting of the money? Does anyone know where it went?

Yeah it helped alright. It is kind of like taking speed at the beginning of a race. The only problem is that you drop dead before the finish.

If the “Stimulus” Package “clearly helped”, then there would be no debate about its effectiveness.

As Reagan once said, “A recession is when your neighbor loses his job; a depression is when you lose yours; and recovery is when the current president (now, Obama) loses his.

But gee, I guess we should just stop making sense because if Time Magazine, the paragon of economic intelligence, says it's true, then I guess we should forget about all the evidence, right?

Another Reagan quote: "The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they are ignorant, but that they know so much that isn’t so."

Hey Time,

If the stimulus “clearly helped”, why do you feel the need to tell us? Shouldn’t we be able to see and feel the recovery on our own?

You just know the MSM is panic mode about the Kenyan completely imploding! They are completely vested in this creep!

Time Mag? Yes, and Obammy is the messiah, too. Ofcourse any stimulation to Chris Matthews’ leg is a good thing.
