By the way, just my opinion based on what I've seen so far:  There is no sign all that stimulus money (and debt incurred for our grandchildren and great grandchildren) did a damn thing for the economy.  If it did there would have been some improvement.  Instead of incurring more debt, they should have just drastically cut taxes to improve business and employment.  That's the only thing that has ever worked.   Government infrastructure jobs are not sustainable.   Never have been.

Feb 2009: "the stimulus package will create jobs immediately" - Obama ... one trillion dollars later unemployment went from 7% to 10%.   How do you like him now?

Just about like I liked him going in - not much and not improving! I heard on the news one day that threats on his life are 400% more than any other U.S. President. I think that is stupid - look at the local yokel who decided that he should end someone's life! I'm sure that some of those who have threatened the pres are of the same mental condition. too bad
