Just say No to stimulus package?!!!
| Tue, 01-27-2009 - 1:44pm |
I see that Republican leaders in the House have urged their members to say No to the Obama economic stimulus package. But, this is no big surprise. The Republican idea of helping the economy is always to give a big tax break to the rich people. The so-called trickle down effect. But Republican economics have put us in the mess we are in right now. It is time to try something different. I urge everyone to contact their representatives and senators to pass the stimulus package. Average Americans are losing their homes, their jobs, and any hope for the future. We cannot afford to wait any longer.
Our country is headed for the second Great Depression in US history. Coincidentally, the Republicans brought on the first Depression back then. Many people suffered a long while before FDR’s programs slowly began to kick start the economy once again.
Tax cuts for the rich will not stimulate our economy. Even tax cuts for average Americans will not help us, if we do not have a job to put food on the table.

My husband would LOVE to be a police officer but unfortunately a mistake in his past and his age get in the way. He's 36 years old which is a problem with some police departments that have a cut-off

<<Well, first of all, our "economic crisis" isn't anywhere even close to the Great Depression, and if you believe otherwise, you really should get an education on the Great Depression...that's just left wing hype to scare the people into accepting the horrible, socialist programs that the Dems are pushing on the American people....>>
I can only assume that perhaps you didn't read the other post properly because it didn't state
I've posted to you already about who has been "lied" to, but I knew I could find George W. Bush acceptance speech at the 2000 Republican convention and I did.

He wasn't president yet, then. Maybe he didn't know that the "surplus" that was touted at the time was a projected surplus? Maybe he misspoke - it wouldn't be the first time.
Here's what he said after he became president about it:
