Go to http://www.weeklystandard.com/default.asp and freep the poll on the right. Who's responsible for the death of the economic stimulus package?

Options:

'George W. Bush', 'Tom Daschle', 'The War', or 'We didn't need it anyway'

[markn]

Hopefully this hasn't already been done :)

Here are the current results:

GW - 5%
Tom D. - 75%
The War - 1%
We didn't need it- 20%

George W., for not asking for enough of a tax cut to generate political pressure on Daschle.

I cannot honestly believe Bush ever thought it would pass so the blame lies with him.

one more vote for dashole,,,,

even voting "here" for that dirtbag gives me the willies,,,,,

but, who are the 20% that think,, in this recession,,with layoffs growing daily, that we don't need a stimulus package ?

That is rather odd that 20% would vote for not necessary. I am not even an American, but I am pretty sure that the stimulus package is needed.

We don't need-19%

I "voted" for Daschole,though I would like to respond to those who have trouble understanding the "We don't need vote".The government is to provide the political freedom that is required to live our lives,not to run the economy.Believing that we need government intervention to make the economy right is to fall for their most insidious argument.Nixon said it in '71(I believe it was '71):"We're all Keysians now".Not all of us.

Hey Daschle,want to buy a vowel?How about an "o"?

I see what you mean. Very valid point.
