As the so-called stimulus bill sails through Congress with no bipartisan input and no amendments allowed, I keep asking myself, "Where in this package is there any stimulus?" Mainly, the so-called American Recovery and Reinvestment Act is just a big payoff to Obama/Demofiend backers in government and the unions. If you don’t carry a union card, you’ll see none of this almost $1 trillion pork fest.

I guess if the Republicans got to play with $700 billion to "save" the credit markets (which turned out just to be payouts to Henry Paulsen’s banking and investment cronies for their year-end bonuses), then the Dems can go both tit for tat and "see you one better" with a $1 trillion handout to their cronies.

The economy will recover, for sure, but largely because of what the Federal Reserve is doing and not what anyone in Congress or the White House is doing. Actually, the economy will somehow recover despite the Demofiends. These economic panics, up until the creation the Federal Reserve, used to occur every few years and cure themselves in short order without any government action.

Of course, there’s still the possibility–a huge one, actually–that the Fiends will seize upon the recession and deliberately extend it until they can rip all our freedoms away and tether us to government programs (including brainwasing through the public schools) from cradle to grave.

If Obama and the Fiends stay in power eight years, we will indeed be France Lite.
