Pretty Porkulus Tree, Candy For All Dem Constituencies
The Democrat Porkulus Christmas Tree is fully adorned with candy for all the constituents from the demographics of the core Democrat Base and many for Obama tools (Re: Acorn) as well. I browsed through the spreadsheet created by the Read the Stimulus Project for about 30 minutes and came up with a lot of “non-stimulus” payoff money.
That is money that either acts as a reward for the direct money and in kind efforts of Unions (NEA, UAW, AFL-CIO,SEIU) and the money to be that “first” hit of crack for money starved Governors to get the leash fully around their necks and to get their buy-in and full support, Democrat or Republican.
As details of the Porkulus emerge, support of the general public has slipped below 50% in just a week. Will it come to be as low as the approval ratings of the Congress, which have slipped to the lowest in history under Nancy Pelosi? Only time will tell. You must wonder though, why Obama, with an approval rating of 68% post inauguration, would allow the governmental institution with the lowest public approval control the development of the most important piece of legislation this Congress will approve this year (hopefully, God willing)?
Unfortunately, for both Obama and Democrats, Obama was unable to convince House Republicans that this was a honeypot they could jump aboard and support. The reality? It is poison doomed to fail at stimulating the economy this year and is so laden with unearmarked (hidden), earmarks that the continuing “culture of corruption” surrounding earmarks-which now belongs to Democrats - will bring the same well deserved derision to Democrats that it brought to Republicans.
Some of the payoffs
For Acorn - for their tireless efforts to register the Dallas Cowboy’s dead people and to stimulate the economy by buying registrations with cigarettes and the like, over $4.0 billion dollars for “Community Development” ,”Homeless Assistance” and other government troughs that they became a huge crimina…er organization (mob) feeding off of the last few decades.
For the NEA - and having the benefit of acting as “crack” to get Governors dependent, there is the State Fiscal Stabilization Fund for Education. This $ 79.0 billion dollars will pay increases for NEA teachers (also pays them to continue indoctrinating and writing Dear Leader songs for the little ones), ensures more Government employment (9 months a year, paid for 12) and will give cover to Governors to support the bill because it is for “the children”. It will also includes money for Islamic Charter Schools, but not “parochial” schools. Charter schools are “private” corporations that receive “public” money, the House Stimulus Bill “classifies” Charter Schools as “Public Schools” (Pg. 173) for purposes of the act, hmmm, seems they forgot to do so for any “parochial schools”.
For Voters 18-29 -$ 1.47 billion for Pell Grants, like he promised, he is going to “take care” of them. Where is the “stimulus” in this?
For Transit Unions and “Crack” for Mayors - Over $ 8.0 billion dollars for “Transit” projects, including more money to dump down the $22.0 billion dollar deep hole we call Amtrak.
Crack for Mayors and Governors - over $15.0 billion dollars for Health and Human Services. Now tell me what can that stimulate?…oops my bad I forgot the $335 million for treatment of STD’s. I guess if you are a condom maker, you are in like flint, they will need to purchase millions to give them away to 16 year olds in the schools (since abstinence is now officially dead).
Paying for Results- over $5.0 to NASA, NOAA and the like. They need to make sure the”research” from here on out is proper as to confirming “Man Made Global Warming” and to confirm the need to make AlGore and his friends at the ICE Exchange (suspected of broad manipulation of oil futures this summer) filthy rich with your tax dollars spent on “Cap & Trade”. Amazingly, you will find the name of Hank Paulson as one of the founders of the firm (GIM )that Al Gore will use as a vehicle for getting “filthy rich”. Please do note get me wrong, I am not against anyone “getting rich”. I just prefer they earn it instead of stealing it from the rest of us (can you say TARP).
Help for Native Americans - after all they were “one with Obama”. Over $8.5 billion for “tribal grants” and water projects. I wonder if that would be water to feed the extremely lucrative casinos the Indians make piles of cash from? Where is the stimulus here? I am only sure it will stimulate the writing of huge checks to Democrat candidates from the tribes come 2010. They have shown extreme largess in this regard before.
I could go on, but it is pissing me off that the Democrats think we are so stupid. The entire bill is filled with the same kind of arrogant logic as Nancy Pelosi’s claim that money for “Family Planning” (translation abortion for you rubes) is stimulative to the “economy”. Get educated, go t0 the Read The Stimulus (Porkulus) project. Once you are thoroughly pissed off, contact Mitch McConnell and your State’s Senators and tell them there is no emergency so large we need to pass a stupid, wasteful payoff package intended more towards bribing the electorate than stimulating the economy. You must act now if you want to stop Obama’s lap dog Harry Reid from carrying out this insult to your intelligence.
