Thoughts on the stimulus...
Does anyone else wonder why the President is so intent on getting Republicans to sign on to his "stimulus" package? He has sufficient votes in both the House and Senate to pass whatever he wants...clearly, there is SOME reason for desiring Republican support? Could it be that he wants to have Republicans on board in order to blame them when the boondoggle doesn't stimulate the economy at all?

FDR didnt care about Republican support...why does Pres. Obama?

Doesnt anyone read history at all, or learn from past mistakes? What lessons can be taken from Japan's lost decade? Surely the economists working for the Obama administration know that Japan's " Lost Decade " was not corrected with massive increases in spending! Talk about willful suspension of disbelief!

Watch for Sec. Geithner to unveil even more treasury stimulus (read = Spending) after the big Congressional stimulus package gets passed...perhaps we wont notice that ever more $BILLIONS are being poared down the rat home of wasteful spending.....

Watch this space...
