is what the Republicans (and some Democrats) that which is actually a" stimulus package "should therefore be a stimulus package and mockieren so the high costs (up to a trillion dollars), which are provided in the stimulus package Barack Obama is surely right when he says that an economic stimulus package includes by definition high expenditure but the question is always:.. what issues from the camp? the GOP was heard, the stimulus resembled a Christmas wish list for various programs, groups and institutions, especially for such programs, groups and institutions that are close to the Democrats. There are, for example, funds for trade unions and climate studies. Especially conservative blogs and websites are full of examples of questionable spending. An example of townhall.com: "But look at some of the boondoggles suggested as this bill took shape: a new fitness center in Albuquerque, a great big parking garage at the Orange Bowl in Miami, still another music hall of fame, this one in Florissant, Mo. Not to mention a Minor League Baseball Hall of Fame at Durham, NC "This law is
fully with what the Americans call" earmarks "or" pork. "And when Obama claims the opposite (what he is doing non-stop), he is simply blind.
course, all these things go with the economy together -. in the construction of a fitness center in Albuquerque, people employed and also by the above-mentioned climate research can certainly some thread to the economic development spin But the odd road or bridge in the U.S. has a renewal certainly needed more than Albuquerque a new fitness center is necessary. And only those investments in the (admittedly not very good U.S.) infrastructure to make the long term the U.S. economy was. The Wall Street Journal criticizes that less than 5% of the Act provided for spending on roads and bridges. Next:. "There's another $ 40 billion for broadband and electric grid development, airports and clean water projects that are arguably worthwhile priorities Add the roughly $ 20 billion for business tax cuts, and by our estimate only $ 90 trillion out of $ 825 billion, or about 12 cents of every $ 1, is for something that can plausibly be considered a growth stimulus. "
The Wall Street Journal concludes: "This is supposed to be a new era of bipartisanship, but this bill was written based on the wish list of every living - or dead - Democratic interest group As Speaker Nancy. Pelosi put it, 'We won the election. We wrote the bill. " So they did. Republicans should let them take all of the credit. "And it seems the Republicans also have before. When it get down to the respective votes in the chambers of the Congress went revolted the GOP members how they almost would not have expected: In the House of Representatives voted not only Republicans for the bill and the Senate, only three (anyway more left-liberal-inspired) Republican voted in the affirmative case, the two Congress chambers, however, have adopted two different versions of the stimulus package, it will be interesting.. to see that look like the compromise, and above all how he come about is. It is possible that Obama must create it with Nancy Pelosi.
In yesterday's press conference, Obama the choice that America has, is as follows: Either this or the economic stimulus package disaster. Well, how about the following choice: Either this joke of a stimulus package or a law worthy of the name, too. Even the Congressional Budget Office believes that the economic stimulus package with its high expenditure in the long term more harm than if we would not act. À propos
press conference. So last night was Barack Obama for the first time with his fans - ääähhh - the White House press corps together. Beside Barack yard-long answers, stupid questions to baseball star A-Rod "and some stupid gossip Obama (" there are no earmarks in this package), much above all the seating order of the journalists and so all who called Barack. The correspondent of Fox News, Major Garrett, was sitting in the back rows and in front there was again Helen Thomas. For those who do not know: Helen Thomas is an anti-Semitic Left, 100 years felt old and was for many years been known to call into press conferences traditionally the first issue and every president press conference by saying "Thank you, Mr. President" to end officially. Also because they auhörte during the Bush era, correspondent to be and was a columnist, she was exiled by the Bush Administration at a press conference in the back rows.
The years of Thomas's exile seem to end with the arrival of the Obama (yes, yes, "Change we can believe in"). Yesterday was the cranky old man that is back in the front row and could even put a question (though not the first) and began at once to it, of "so-called terrorists" to speak.
also a left-radio host was given a place in the lucrative first row of seats, which really belong to only traditional media as the major news agencies and TV stations.
The eyes of this blog widened in disbelief at the latest, when Obama a representative of the Huffington Post called. An ultra-leftist blog gets the right to charge at a press conference with U.S. President The same questions?? Where we got into it just?
pushing this on a once again the thought: "Imagine that, Bush would have ..." Well, just forget it
