Obama's "jobs plan" is his election platform (Clinton, politician, economy)

I just don't understand why some posters here think it's going to work this time.

The problem isn't that you don't understand. The problem is that your ideologies, if not sheer hatred for the man, gets in the way.

The Republicans opposed the first stimulus but it passed and failed.
By your logic the Republicans should reluctantly pass it so it fails again and then blame Obama right before the election.

If it fails, it helps the republicans. Those politicians you speak for aren't dumb. Failed economy for success has been the obvious mantra for almost three years now.

To repeat my earlier point, Obama's failures can be attributed to agreeing with republicans... the first stimulus involved more of the same... 2/3 of it tax cuts. And I disliked that then, as I dislike the idea of payroll cuts in this one.

His Keynesian policies have failed before why should I support him this time?

Another way to look at it would a similar claim that his policies helped avoid worsening of the economy into another Great Depression.

Yes, as ridiculous as that is, it would be another way to look at it. Kinda like back in the days when doctors used to bleed patients to cure them.....

I could claim I turned my head left and it helped avoid alien invasion. Without proof, it's a bunch of hooey. Where's the proof of this statement?
