So what kind of figure did they come up with for the long term cost of the Stimulus bill? Why is it not listed? What is the cost of the DeMint plan today? Why is it not listed?

Hey Jeff! WOW! What a dazzling revelation! “(CAP) is a liberal think-tank that has put almost their entire staff into the Obama administration.” Oh man, am I glad you told us THAT because I’m sure all of us would have remained in total ignorance without you having posted it here. Heck, I’ll bet you can’t find that information anywhere else!

Which of course raises the obvious questions: Exactly WHO at CAP wound up in the Obama administration? Can you give specific names (first and last PLEASE), their titles at CAP, and the positions they now occupy in the Obama administration?

And for that matter, can you tell us just where you found this fascinating piece of information, so we can look it up and verify it for ourselves? I mean, I can’t just go around informing my friends, telling them this is true just “because Jeff said so.”

Tax revenues are the only pooling of their economic resources that enables the common people to enjoy the quality of life we need to have progress, like wiping out diseases, creating sanitation and clean water systems so you and your children don’t die of malaria, educating the common people, creating broadband networks that provide for free speech instead of monopoly brainwashing.

It’s the freedom to cooperate with one another, without serving the demands of a tyrant, a feudal lord or a fascist dictator, that is enshrined in the foundational belief of democratic self-government, in our case, through duly elected Representatives.

Open your eyes! The tax cuts are just a way to impoverish and disenfranchise the people, the free people, of the United States and turn them into the lackeys of tyrants and feudal lords!

But so are the Democrats. What’s worse about us is we are so interested in pointing out tax-cuts for the rich and spending for pork like Iraq and Afghanistan, that the same puppetmasters have picked up our strings, too.

There is no free market, yet we’re told by Democratic Senators, Representatives and Cabinet members (White House occupants NOT excluded) that the “buy American” provision will “risk setting off a trade war!”

Wake up people! The superrich have bought everybody in Washington, in the media, and in the military-industrial complex.

We need big income tax increases on the top 10% and

We need the resignations of everybody in Congress who accept campaign contributions from unnatural entities, such as corporations and Political Action Committees.

Free the American people!

dear Jeff…kind of like the Heritage Society running wild in the Bush White House for the last 8 years…your silence then was deafening.

What an amazing coincidence that CAP (ie: the Obama administration) found that the competing plan is supposedly terrible? Notice the distinction in the findings between “stimulating” and “growing” the economy (which is what tax cuts do in the long run). Also, that the findings incorrectly assume that most corporations pay corporate income tax (they don’t due to preferences – they only pay AMT at the lower 20% rate). Not to mention the whole corporate tax integration arguments.

So, again, questionable findings by the Obama Administration (commonly known as CAP)

The have some twisted sense of ideological fervor – they are now against deficits!!! Where were they for the Bush 8 years!!!!!!!

They all have secure jobs, good salaries, great benefits, government health care, and guaranteed retirement plans. They simply do NOT feel the pain of the ordinary citizen. They want to keep up this fiction of the “free market” when it is anything but free to most Americans. I think we should not send any recovery money to any legislative district whose representative voted against the Obama plan. Then we will see what democracy looks like!

These Republicans expect the people of this country to listen to them after they have stolen us blind??? Uh…”fool me once, uh…won’t get fooled again”!

We are needed more than ever, continue to reach out and network, forward any information you find online which reveals the GOPs’s record of failures, or dismantles the propaganda and revisionism that they are using now to re-brand the party.

We must defeat the Grand Obstructionist Party in 2012, because they have not gotten the message, 60 democratic senate seats will change this country, this President is not beholden to ideology, and he’s intelligent enough to know what he doesn’t know and who to find out from.

Contiued failure is not an option, for this country this is the 2nd Revolution, our time, and our responsibility as Americans

This is the legacy of the 1994 “Contract With America” which
many people called, more accurately, a “Contract ON America”.

Rethugliconscum are trying to destroy our country.

BRING ON 2010! EVERYBODY VOTE DEMOCRAT!

Wow, it’s almost like the Republican focus on stuff like re-planting the mall, birth control for poor women, and replacement federal cars–less than 1 percent of the spending bill–was just a HUGE red herring!

It’s like they have NO SOLUTIONS, so they just go on TV and exaggerate, grandstand and downright lie (CBO report, anyone?). Rather than, you know, come clean on the fact that their solutions are a more costly version of the same stuff that got us into this mess.

Ugh.
