Is This Really a Stimulus Plan?

Phenomenal article today from The Wall Street Journal! Really breaks it all down. Did Obama listen to one word when he was ‘courting’ Congressional leaders? Great that he put on a fantastic show for the media and American people by leaving the White House to meet with them but did he listen to anything?

Let’s supply condoms to kids and money to repair the same Mall that all the people who came for change trampled on. Here is an idea. Send 1,000,000 supporters back to Washington with a spreader and some grass seed and let them see the fastest change in American history.Grass freaking grows! Better than 20 million bucks for sod, eh?

Folks, I have seen the warning about this for at least two years. If Bucky and Lou Ann do not get it yet when will they? Do you need to hand deliver (through their Do Not Trespass Warning signs) the message to them?

This initial entry is to introduce myself. I am not a radical Republican, rather a person who decides how to vote based on facts. I created this blog because I am completely and totally shocked at how the recent election turned out. We elected a person President who 5 years ago was a State Senator.
Although historic and certainly a representation of how our country has socially progressed since its inception, President Obama stormed into the White House with very little experience and a platform and record which was to say the least not heavily scrutinized. In short, his election was based on emotion.
It is my goal to use this platform as a way to centralize the days news and events in order gauge how he and his Congress is doing. I will provide my opinion and welcome others in to debate me. I also hope to awaken people in America to fact based decision making when electing our men and women to lead us. I wish to do this through a branding campaign which will be realized shortly.
