2009 Stimulus - Death of Democracy

So the stimulus package has been signed, sealed and delivered. Well...maybe not delivered just yet...

Oh I am sure the Ted Kennedy allotment will get delivered. Let's not forget the money for the high speed rail between California and Las Vegas benefiting whom? Oh and yes the money to be allotted for STD's and some rodent in San Frisco.

Be aware though, that there was absolutely no pork in this stimulus package. I forgot President Obama promised jobs through this package. We will see if jobs will be delivered through this passing or not.

Well, was it just me or did Obama, repeatedly through the media, tell Congress to not get bogged down in details about the Stimulus but just push it through? Wasn't there an urgency from him to get it passed so that millions of Americans could get much needed help? Didn't Obama stress the need for politics as usual to stop so that America can get moving again?

Naturally Obama did not want details of the stimulus revealed simply because if America knew what was in it they would be appalled. This is our money getting tossed around. Obama through Congress passed the largest spending spree in American history and they are not done yet.

Does money grow on trees? Is anyone out there wondering where all this money is coming from? Are all those who voted for Obama not questioning anything?
The future of this country is being thrown at the feet of our grand kids and no one is saying anything. Sure the conservative talk show hosts are, the republicans are squirming but what about the throngs of blind followers who voted for Obama.

If you voted for Obama I have to ask you this: are you blindly following along or will you come to a point where you start questioning things?

This blog is about commons sense. Someone somewhere down the line pays for this current government's spending. Do not talk about President Bush and the Iraq war. Bush has done nothing of this sort. In fact the double minded dems and liberals lam blasted the president for his spending on the war on terror.

Will any citizen question the wisdom of this spending spree or will the majority follow blindly along.

Obama said it was the responsibility of the government to bail out the banks and the people. Says who?

Is is really the business of the government to grow larger? Is it the business of the government to bail out lenders, who got into this mess in the first place under pressure from a democratic president and congress? Is it the business of the government to bail out people who had no business getting loans they knew they could not pay back?

Is it the business of the government to take over health care and thus eliminate your choice of doctor and treatment options? Is it the business of the government to take over the banks partially or completely thus restricting our freedom with currency? Is it the business of the government to begin a database housing every Americans personal medical history? (This is in the stimulus package that was passed)

When government grows freedoms disappear - President Bush did nothing to cause Americans to lose their freedoms in the passing of the Patriot Acts.

You watch...just watch...as government grows freedoms disappear...the death of democracy. Will any of you be willing to question or will you just learn to goosestep?
