That didn’t work, so here’s the whole thing…

Boston Herald 1/30/09

OK, we like this new president too. But could we not let our genuine affection for Barack Obama get in the way of an objective look at the throw-everything-but-the-kitchen-sink-into $819 billion so-called stimulus bill just passed by the House.

About $275 billion of that figure would put money back into the pockets of families who can spend it and small businesses that will be encouraged to create jobs with it. That is by most folks’ definition real stimulus.

And there is at least $103 billion for infrastructure repair projects and mass transit - another way to effectively put people to work, assuming those projects are indeed “shovel ready.”

But how, pray tell, did $50 million for the National Endowment for the Arts get to be part of “recovery”? Or what about that $335 million for programs to prevent sexually transmitted diseases? (Are condom manufacturers in need of a bailout too?)

And it was only at the last minute - in an unsuccessful attempt to win Republican votes - that $200 million to refurbish the National Mall was taken out of the bill.

The Senate version of the bill - already pegged at some nearly $900 billion - will include even more goodies irrelevant to the nation’s economic recovery. How about $75 million for smoking cessation programs and $70 million for a supercomputer at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Now that’s labor-intensive!

It’s as if Congress can’t help itself. The nation is needy. The new president is willing. And for Congress an “emergency” bill is like crack cocaine. (Remember they just passed a $900 billion bill at the end of last year filled with pork and special interest perks.)

Some of the “emergencies” tended to don’t have a price tag, they’re simply special interest legislation. So from now on all those Transportation Security Administration uniforms must be made in the U.S. (a win for North Carolina Rep. Larry Kisler). And South Florida’s yacht repair yards will be exempt from federal workers compensation laws (that “emergency” legislation has been proposed for the past six years).

So much of this is simply shameful and doesn’t put the nation one step closer to a real recovery.

Here’s a Happy Hour Toast to the Dems who are Now Gonna Reach 60 Dems in Da Senate—Da Train is Roarin’ Down Da Track

Drink up Crackers! And all you bigots can toast your new RNC Chairman Michale Steele (Senate Looser) Senatuh Judd Gregg is gonna be Sec Commerce. Dat mean dat Gov. John Lynch in da bipartisan sp;irit will name a Dem as the new Senatuh. Dat mean dat the Senatuh from New Hamp. will be #59 and da Senatuh from Minessota Al Franken (smart enuf and god enuf goshdarnit you betchy betchy) will be #60. So drink up crackers.

Meanwhile the Rovster has claimed Absolute Immunity. Rove has not been in the White House since 8/07 and Fred Fielding who is claiming it for Rove is no longer White house Counsel. Obama has said he won’t grant the Rovster immunity. Whoops. Looks like the House Sgt. of Arms will have to use a crain to drag butterball in. Date has been set for 3 weeks—Feb. 23.

The State Department has fired Blackwater. Hillruh ain’t renewin’ Eric the Prince’s contract come May.

Here’s my fav Chuckie the Krauthammer quote:

“Instead, Giuliani, Romney and Huckabee bent a knee and tried appeasement with various interpretations of scriptural literalism. The right answer, the only answer, is that the very question is offensive.”

The reason that none of them had the guts to say “none of your business” for Chucky the Kraut is that they would have gotten their clock cleaned in the GOP primary—where all of them emerged weak candidates anyway.

And Chukeh goes on to say:

“In this country, there is no special political standing that one derives from being a Christian leader like Mike Huckabee or a fervent believer like Mitt Romney. Just as there should be no disability or disqualification for political views that derive from religious sensibilities, whether the subject is civil rights or stem cells.

This is pretty elementary stuff. I haven’t exactly invented hot water here. The very rehearsing of these arguments seems tiresome and redundant.”

The controversy deals with a car and driver lent to Daschle by a wealthy Democratic friend, a chauffeur service the former senator used for years without declaring it on his taxes.

I see where Rep John Conyers D, Michigan, wife, Monica, is about to be, or already has been, indicted for taking and soliciting bribes for her votes as a Detroit city councilwoman.

You can see Illinois from Michigan, so she must have gotten her cue from Blago on the ‘how to’ and the proper methodology.

Rep. Conyers is a shining star in his own mind, I mean, his own right:

1 - Conyers is one of the 13 founding members of the Congressional Black Caucus…

2 - Conyers frequently posts at Daily Kos and Democratic Underground. Since May 2005, he’s been a contributing blogger at The Huffington Post …

3 - Conyers has proposed House Resolution 288, which condemns “religious intolerance” but emphasizes on Islam as needing special protection from acts of violence and intolerance.

4 - In letters sent separately to the House Ethics Committee, the FBI, and the US Attorney’s office by two former aides of Conyers, they alleged that Conyers used his staff to work on several local and state campaigns and forced them to baby-sit and chauffeur his children..

5 - Conyers appeared in Michael Moore’s documentary Fahrenheit 9/11 discussing the aftermath of the September 11, 2001 attacks, stating that members of Congress “don’t read most of the bills”…

This guy is a real prince, at least in his own mind. Anyone out there wonder how all of these elected officials in Washington become multi-millionaires after they have been in DC for a while? Ask Conyers, he apparently has one of the answers, plagiarized straight from the Blago script.

Treason Times article headline cut and pasted on to the front page of the Urinal-

{{{{Republicans Choose First Black Party Chairman}}}}

Wormy little subheadline added by the Urinal-

{{{{RNC picks African-American as chairman for first time in quest for change.}}}}

I couldn’t care less if the guy was purple or if he was green, that’s your hangup, liberals.

Speaking on behalf of the 56,000,000 NoOblahma voters, I would feel safe saying he got our support because he is a red blooded, America loving, God Fearing, hard core Conservative.

Change you can believe in!

{{{{The State Department will not renew Blackwater Worldwide’s contract to protect American diplomats in Iraq when it expires in May, a senior U.S. official said Friday. The official said the contract will expire because of the Iraqi government’s decision to deny Blackwater a license to operate.-Urinal/Jihad}}}}

Looks like we’re going to have to issue a Colt 45 to all those whiny “US diplomats,” now that they don’t have the protection they hate so much.

That reminds me, anybody wanna bet that Haliburton/ KBR just keeps right on with it in Afghanistan?

Seeing how they are the only company able to do the work?

Good for Cheney, eh?

I can’t tell if Rush is scared of the thought of a black president coming after him,

or excited.

GHT,

Maybe this Excellence in BedWetting version is more to Curly’s liking. Since HeadRush is the only schmuck on the planet who is a bigger fiasco at sports broadcasting than the abysmally boring Dennis Miller.

Rush Limbaugh: “Mr. Velshi, you are incompetent. You are a disservice to your business. Except you fit right in at CNN. Disinformation, character assaults. This economy is nowhere near as bad as it was in 1982.”

Kinda McCainish, doncha think?

But like Commie said, the fraud’s laughing all the way to the bank.

Maybe, getalife is wrong, Gingrey is right, and Michael “Affirmative Action???” Steele is still just second in command of the Credibility-free Party.

That was a 1.2 billion dollar, 25 year contract. Feds have been investigating for some time.

Raise taxes how? I thought the Republican proposal cut the 10 percent marginal rate to 5 percent and the 15 percent rate to 10, which affects the lowest-level taxpayers. Also sought to shield many middle income families from the Alternate Minimum Tax.

Listen to Sen Conrad and other Dems - they sound more like the House Republicans in their comments about their concerns over the nonstimulus, special interest provisions than they sound like House Democrats.

Which is why the bill faces a massive do-over with Senate Democrats.

House Republicans and Senate Democrats. Who’da thunk?
