This is too damn gross for me to even write more about it. Just click over and read for yourself. I wonder how many jobs that created?

Maybe I was hallucinating, but I could swear when that $887 billion stimulus package was passed it was going towards “shovel ready projects” that included infrastructure. I remember Obama on the campaign trail talking about our crumbling infrastructure and denouncing the Iraq war for taking money that could’ve been used to build roads. That was all bullshit.

Now, Obama is proposing a $50 billion stimulus package to build infrastructure. He was kidding about it the first time around, but he really wants to build those roads now.

This is just further proof of what we already know to be true. The so-called stimulus was nothing but a grab bag of spending and political favors for the hard left. All the programs they could never get funding for over the last 30 years they knocked the dust off of and called them “stimulus.” What the Obama administration did was orchestrate the largest heist in the history of the world.

We shouldn’t allow this thug-in-chief to take one more dime of tax payer money for anything. He’s trying to do now what he promised to do in the beginning.

What’s worse, there’s still hundreds of billions in unspent stolen “stimulus” money that could be used for infrastructure if they were really serious about it.

Obama lied, the economy died.

The only people surprised by this are the assholes in Washington. Schumer is right that people have lost faith in government. In fact, most of us never had any faith in government to begin with. The government has been overstepping its bounds for decades and created one boondoggle after another. President Obama is always yammering about phony ass “green jobs” and how his phony ass “stimulus” package was going to kick start a phony ass green revolution in America.

Well, he was partially right. It did kick start a phony ass green revolution, but it’s overseas — mostly in China. 80% of the $2 billion dollars set aside in the phony stimulus went to “green” projects like building phony ass wind turbines for phony ass wind farms. The vast majority of the phony ass wind turbines are built in China.

This is why the stimulus was such a bad idea. It was never going to do what its supporters promised it would. The phony stimulus was nothing but billions of dollars in giveaways to Obama’s favorite constituents and special interests.

The American people got bent over and gang raped without even so much as the courtesy of a little lube first.

Global warming is a fraud. So to the extent that a “green jobs” revolution is even necessary the private sector will create it. The government has no business getting involved in “creating jobs” anyway — that’s the role of the private sector.

Imagine how much better our economy would be if we had just kept the billions we sent to China, scrapped the phony ass wind farms, and used the oil, coal, and natural gas we have right here at home.

This entire energy related drama is based on the phony ass premise of global warming. We have enough coal, natural gas, and oil in this country to power every home and car in America. We don’t need China to build us phony ass wind farms.

There is still hundreds of billions of “stimulus” dollars that have yet to leave the treasury. We should keep that money and help pay down the debt. After that, every single member of Congress who voted for the phony stimulus along with the president who conceived it should resign.

They knew the “stimulus” was bullshit, we knew the “stimulus” was bullshit — but they did it anyway.

From CNN:

A total of 690,000 new vehicles were sold under the Cash for Clunkers program last summer, but only 125,000 of those were vehicles that would not have been sold anyway, according to an analysis released Wednesday by the automotive Web site Edmunds.com.

…The average rebate was $4,000. But the overwhelming majority of sales would have taken place anyway at some time in the last half of 2009, according to Edmunds.com. That means the government ended up spending about $24,000 each for those 125,000 additional vehicle sales.

It doesn’t matter how these jerks in Congress (from both parties) try and spin it. Once again, the American tax payer took it up the ass for a program we all knew was BS from the beginning. Every single thing our government has done to allegedly alleviate the recession has been about paying off special interests. The phony stimulus was one of the greatest thefts in world history. It was $787 billion dollars of pork and special interest bribes.

“Cash For Clunkers” was total horseshit from the moment it was conceived. It turned out exactly like many of us knew it would — as grand theft auto. It was smoke and mirrors just like everything else coming from the federal government.

You think this is bad, just wait until ObamaCare kicks in.

This is how many Americans feel about what Obama and the Democrats are doing to our country. This is how we feel about $787 billion dollar “stimulus” packages that are nothing but bullshit pork.

This is how we feel about destroying the economy with “Cap and Trade” tax plans to combat something that isn’t even real.

This is how we feel about broke-ass California issuing IOU’s while at the same time paying $4 million to put the corpse of a pedophile singer on display.
