In recent days, my discontent for the so-called stimulus plan hasn't been a secret. I was thinking today, if the Democrats wanted to pass this stimulus package, they easily could. They would face a possible filibuster from the Republicans, but it's unlikely. What I find so arrogant about this plan that has pork everywhere is the fact that the drafters (Democrats) don't believe enough in their own plan to stand behind it and pass it without the affirmation of targeted key Republican leaders. This tactic gives the Democrats a proverbial "out." If things go south with their proposed stimulus, which it will, they will have on the bill signatures of key Republicans. I'm not naive. I know how Washington works. I know it's a cat and mouse, chess match, but this is so transparent. With an almost filibuster proof Senate, the Democrats could easily get this socialistic stimulus package passed, but it's obvious they're terrified of the consequences. A failure of this magnitude in the infant stages of Obama's term would almost certainly guarantee he loses re-election. Why don't we call a spade a spade? This is nothing but a supplemental budget for an already asinine, record setting budget. Millions in ATV trails, STD prevention, 200 million to repair the National Mall, 650 million to repair national Forest Service facilities, are examples of millions...scratch that...billions of dollars going to things that couldn't be squeezed into the already overflowing irresponsible budget or more importantly, creating jobs; instead, it's forced into Barack Obama US Federal Budget 1b. I'm so over this country's move toward Marxism. Communists are such stupid heads.
