This column lists off where these "stimulus" funds are headed (for full list, see link):
So the question is, which of the following aspects of Obama's power grab package don't give the economy an immediate short-term jolt, as is the stated purpose of a "stimulus" package?
As Barack Obama descends from this unaccountable left-wing fantasy land where Democrats get to say anything they want, whether it blatantly contradicts every known fact or not, to respond to legitimate concerns over the enormity and effectiveness of his obscenely expensive "stimulus" package by pointing fingers at Republicans for the recession, we begin to see what this "post-partisan" candidate for "change" is actually about. So much for "resisting the temptation to fall back on the same partisanship and pettiness and immaturity that has poisoned our politics for so long."
Even though it was Democrats who forced banks to lower their lending standards, Democrats who removed all accountability, Democrats who blocked any and every Republican attempt to reform Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and Democrats who raided the institutions for campaign funds as they collapsed, Obama has informed us that Republicans rejecting nearly a trillion dollars in dishonest left-wing power grabs (which in no way stimulate the economy) constitutes "phony arguments and petty politics."
Pot, meet kettle.
According to the Great Uniter, Republicans oppose spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to create each new alleged job (and that's by Obama's own incredibly optimistic estimates) not for the same common sense reasons for which most Americans oppose this lunacy (such as that it is a completely unsustainable plunge down the toilet of European socialism), but because they have "come to the table with the same tired arguments and worn ideas" that helped to cause the current economic crisis. Meanwhile, on planet Earth, all the facts and evidence say the opposite.
Below is a list of where the funds from this back-breaking taxpayer debt scam-lyingly mislabeled as a "stimulus" package-are headed. The most outrageous abuses are highlighted in bold:
-$5.2 billion for the left-wing voter fraud group ACORN.
-$380 for a rainy-day fund for a nutrition program that serves low-income women and children.
-$300 million for grants to combat violence against women..."
