Shovel ready…


By now you no doubt have heard the government discussion about “shovel ready” projects to stimulate the economy? If you’re like me, you have no idea what that means other than it’s going to cost me more tax dollars?


Pulitzer Prize winning cartoonist Ramirez, Investor’s Business Daily, offers his version here. He nails it.


On another negative note- The Lightbringer signed the $410B 9000 earmark budget bill yesterday in private, no photo’s (that we’ll ever see), no comments other than it’s all Bush’s fault… One interesting “statement” made was that the budget bull, er… bill was required to keep the government functioning. That is an outright LIE!!!

The government has been running on continuing resolutions since Oct. so there was no real rush…

  1. I used to think the government would never do anything intentionally to screw its citizens. I now feel so naive. The only things that make me hopeful for our future are my kids, and seeing how many other people out there are hopping mad.

  2. I got my shovel but it will not be nearly big enough.

    Elm:
    I am sure you will teach you children the right to do things. They are the future.

  3. This administration needs to spend more time leaning on the shovel handle instead of actually using the damn thing to pile on more crap.

  4. The word is getting out there, the delusional are seeing the light finally. The we show Obama is a liar the more the power will shit in the RIGHT direction.

  5. Shovels? Backhoes and front end loaders won’t hold a candle to what will be needed to get out of the Obamamess. Sigh.

  6. Elm- Our kids are now defacto out future in more ways than one, they are going to have to pay for our (read Lightbringers) sins on these bailouts…

  7. ADM- Agree… dammit…

    KY- Hell no, I don’t want em leaning on the shovels, they’ll come up with more crap…

    CPD- Hopefully this WILL cause a shift to the right!

    Crucis- Sorry about posting that and not giving you credit, I must have missed that post!

    CS/Snigs/Kvegas- Agreed!

  8. We, he, did nothing but make an effort to assit in the oil patch, and yet was derided

  9. Ev, not a problem. The more it’s circulated the better. You have more readers than me.

    Just keep on, keepin’ on.

    WV: harping

    I swear to God that came up!
