President Barack Obama warned on this week that failure to act on an economic recovery package could plunge the nation into a long-lasting recession that might prove irreversible, a fresh call to a recalcitrant Congress to move quickly.
In an op-ed piece in The Washington Post, the president argued that each day without his stimulus package, Americans lose more jobs, savings and homes. His message came as congressional leaders struggle to control the huge stimulus bill that's been growing larger by the day in the Senate. The addition of a new tax break for home buyers Wednesday evening sent the price tag well past $900 billion. But in essence this stimulus not nothing more that a Congress gone crazy.
A example of this can be found in a provision in the House-passed stimulus bill -- banning money to be used to renovate schools from being spent on facilities that allow on campus religious worship held on Sundays at the school where Churches rent the school and classrooms for that purpose and where school make extra money by doing so.
We seeing this type of legislation throughout the so called stimulus bill and the question in most people's mind is why?
So if we have this type of mindless provisions in this bill that create no jobs, what are the Democrats fighting for and why is Obama supporting such obvious corrupted legislation?
The reasons, I believe is that they very well know that they need to force down as much of this Liberal/Progressive hogwash as fast as possible, Because in the long run they do not have time to wait and let each bill to come to the floor. The payback for corrupt Unions and groups like ACRON is obvious.
They know that the party in power always loses members in off year elections, and as it stand now with 85 percent of the people opposing this stimulus bill, they’re setting the stage for the Republicans to gain seats in both the House and Senate, and doing it earlier than anyone could predict.
They just gave the American people a very good reason to not trust the Liberal/so-called Progressive democrats on saving the economy. They have a very bad tract record in past attempts and they have no idea how to do it.
They really know they’re being foolish pushing this Payoff/so-called stimulus and even with the President supporting it and wanting this 9oo billion in spending, they simply asking for trouble.
The Republicans have gain ground on this bill and they need to hold tight! We certainly should pray they can force reductions on spending and push upward tax cuts for everyone! Republican should kow that standing strong will made them gain ground and made the House and Senate democrats easier to beat in 2010. Being wishy washy when it comes to your enemy is a dangerous tactic and if Republicans don't hold tight they will pay the price. But if Democrats do not, they too will lose in coming elections. Lets hope the Democrats blink!
