    That reminds me of Gen. George Armstrong Custer saying "I haven't seen any Indians, anywhere!" :laugh:

    Or General Thomas Gage saying to Lt. Col. Francis Smith, "Pay no attention to that rider. It's just that local silversmith, Paul Revere. Hmmm! How Strange. There are two lights in the Church Steeple tonight. Oh well - enough of this delay. Move out! You've got a small munitions cache to get at Concord. Shouldn't take more than three or four hours. You should be back easily by lunch-time." :laugh:

    I don't think anyone's denying there's an iceberg... the difference is, the current captain of the ship and his lackies CREATED the iceberg, and maybe, just maybe, there's a different solution to avoiding the collision... LIKE TURNING THE SHIP IN A DIFFERENT DIRECTION!

    No, let's keep plowing full-steam-ahead, but see if we can spend enough, quickly enough, to build another boat between us and that one, to deflect the blow.

    Self-correction is THE proper free-market attitude to take.

    Welcome to Socialism.

    I dont trust the tax cuts in this bill either. How do they know where to cut taxes, I am not sure Obama knows anyone that pays taxes.

    Actually, it's your side that needs to stop spreading falsehoods about the bill.

    Give us a break. Even Schumer admits there is pork. Pelosi added millions to protect a mouse. You are not fooling anyone.

    Now would be a good time for those who can not list any pork items to bring up abortion or some other non-related subject, maybe a good ad hominem would fit here as well.

    I already did that on a separate thread started five days ago!

    American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009

    A lot more has been written since!

    Guy on the local radio said, "I guess the Democrats decided to relieve the conservatives with a tax break since they're the only ones paying into the fund".

    Do you think Ken really cares. From his posts it is obvious that whatever the dems do is super with him!

    If anyone goes to this site they will find nothing but bureaucratic gibberish. For those unfamiliar with the stuff written by the DC bureaucrats it will come as a shock. Could start a revolution.

    That it could. The bill should be repealed before one dime is spent. The $850 billion dollar bailout from last year should also be repealed and the treasury take the money back from the banks and Wall Street.

    Oh, Bushama and his acolytes will get the money back. But they plan on getting it back from you and me, not their big donors.

    Just hit me from this post that the Dems and taxes are akin to that old FRAM filter ad that said, "Pay me now, or pay me later!"

    Pork? I don't see any pork.

    What would be the difference between this stimulus bill compared to - let's just say I have a rich uncle named Tony....

    Uncle Tony says, "Tough break, Kid. Youse can't gets no credit, youse ain't got no health insurance and dat boy-ger joint is probably going to lay you off.... Let me tell you what your Uncle Tony gonna do for youse. I tink I'm going to remodel my summer house in da Hamptons. While I'm tinkin on it, maybe I'll buy wona dem Hybrids - you know keep the whackos from trowing paint at my Hummer - ya know what I'm saying. How dat make you feel kid? Bedda? Here's twenty bucks kid. Go do somethin' nice for da liddle woman."

    Are you plotting the overthrow of the U.S. government?

    No he is not. That has nothing to do with the crooks and thieves that run both parties and steal from the American people daily. Maybe he is advocating getting rid of them. The first 100 billion of that brilliant bailout bill should have been a super prison with chain gangs and breaking rocks to house the lobbyists, politicians, wall street and CEO crooks, and replace them with people who want to govern in a way that serves the American people.

    Probably Yorkshires, I would say.

    The 'white' color seems too 'clean' for most other breeds, from this picture.

    And the ears seem too erect for Chester Whites.

    Nice to have pork a person can identify just by looking. If it looks like a pig, sounds like a pig, etc. However, if it looks like stimuli, sounds like stimuli.... it might turn out to be anything!
