THis is just not true and you have proven it.
There are plenty of articles questioning the stimulus
package, health care, you name it. I know you have
read them. Even the great devil, the NY Times, "prints"
them.
NPR has a guest almost everyday the past week
voicing concern, and pointing out details of why
the stimulus plan will not work.
People are extremely skeptical about this administration's
fiscal methods. Even his own party has already started
to cut the meat out of the Carbon emissions plan, so much
so that the Democrats are alienating the environmental lobby.
The reason he is being given a "pass" is that there is
NO UNIFIED alternative. The Republicans have done
a horrible job of presenting their own coherent recipe
for recovery. They just know what
won't work.
Republicans basically have no idea what will work.
And thats understandable, we are in a very difficult mess.
Obama has used this financial crisis as an opening to
try some extremely bold moves. He obviously thinks there
are some things the government should take on, and
some things that the government can do well, all of which
makes Republicans are very nervous because the government
clearly does nothing well. And should just stay the hell
out of everything. The country can run itself...
Somalia has done such a dandy job
without a government.
