Just putting together an environmental impact report for something new to be built

I imagine a large portion of the stimulus plan money will go into expert opinions and lawsuits regarding repairing the potholes.

Regardless of what President Bush or Secretary of the Treasury Paulson may have had in mind when they promoted this huge bailout package, with all due respect to these gentlemen what they had in mind will not matter in the slightest after January 20th.

Sigh. Wish I could disagree. And in what should be a caricature of themselves (but sadly is not), they're already talking about $1.3 trillion-with-a-T grab. This has to be the greatest transfer of wealth in history.

What they had in mind? They clearly had nothing in mind. Clearly Paulson and Bush were lying. They didn't buy out even one "troubled asset" with this TARP money, unless you consider a "troubled asset" to be a bank or labor union. They are just making this up as they go along, and were willing to say whatever they could to get a pile of money at the start of all of this to make it happen.

Thanks for the ping of truth jaz.

Too much to say to bother. Dr. Sowell is correct as usual.

Excellent and refreshing contrast to that no talent @$$ clown Paul Krugman’s column.

Where are all the protestors?

The sodomites were able to take time off from sticking their penises into other men's recta to protest the passage of Proposition 8. Why is no one protesting this additional government spending?

Sowell suggests that the bailouts are a mistake because the democrats will grab the money and twist it for their own good. Then they’ll blame the republicans for their disasters. For once, I disagree with him. They’ll do that anyway.
