re: #36 Ward Cleaver

There was more bipartisan opposition to this porkfest than there was support.

7 Democrats in the House voted against this mess. Only 3 GOP senators - Collins, Specter, and Snowe voted for it.

That’s all that the Democrats could muster with all the pork.

Nice.

And just wait until folks start to realize the damage done by this mess; the higher taxes at all levels of government, the higher costs, and the damage to the economy. It will happen. But the Democrats had to do something to show they were caring for the economy - so they passed the most irresponsible and short-sighted legislation in history. They put their political ambitions to turn America to the hard left ahead of fiscal responsibility. It’s the economy, Stupid.

The only ones benefiting from the stimulus is the government. They grow - everyone else shrinks.
