That must be the 'benefit' of which bob speaks.

Oh goody... more hugely expensive jobs.

Obama: Let’s spend $2 billion to create 5100 jobs

...and most of them are only temporary. Confirming once again that for every $1 the government pulls out of the economy via taxes to spend on government administration and programs, they cause more than a dollar's worth of destruction to the economy.

Too ignorant to realize that the people aren't buying these endless "stimuluses" as a way to get the economy rolling again.
I swear....for EVERY billion they keep throwing out there to "create" these "wonderful", jobs (that come "so close" to the same level of salaries/bennies/pensions of Govt. employees)......few of them, ARE really wearing thin on the nation, investors, lenders, etc......since they ALL KNOW there WILL be Hell to pay in tax increases and other costs......soon enough!
The LEFT just DON'T GET THIS REALITY.......OR the implications of continued taxpayer funding in FUTILITY!
On top of it all......they have allowed massive hoarding of the money they have received so far.....to stimulate a select few?
And we know who they are.
That's all there is to it.
And NOW.....they WANT MORE!

Crack fiends, on steroids with a major gambling addiction.
Exactly what more and more are seeing of the Left.....and ESPECIALLY these Demwits (with Pelosi and Reid at the helm), who figured it must be A-OK to jack the country way deeper into debt.....since, in their eyes.....GW Bush and the Pubs. were "allowed" to do so....albeit, to a far lesser degree, which the Lefties choose to ignore.

And what an agenda this admin. has....YET...to fully accomplish?!

NO THANKS.....NO more liver and onions!

Didn't like it then...and I don't like it NOW!

And that is exactly what this administration and the Lefties are FORCE- feeding on all of us, IMHO!
PUKE...is what they should expect coming back at them.
