Bob Cesca: Happy Anniversary, Recovery Act

Bob evaluates the success of the Recovery Act, as well as the horrible marketing campaign that should be informing Americans of the good their government is doing.

We as a national have done better in the stock market:

…in job creation:

…GDP growth:

…and in legislative achievement:

The New York Times figures that 1.6 million jobs have been created by the stimulus. Here is more on their reporting plus their sidebar graph info:

From my driving around from California to Colorado to Illinois, I’ve seen plenty of work being done. It isn’t a boondoggle. It isn’t waste (except for maybe some of the work here in Vegas but that’s a local – re:GOP – choice). Perfectly deployed and explained? No. But a damn sight better than the sitting on our hands Hooverite approach the Rethugs suggested? Hell yeah!

So basically you’ve got the GOP against jobs and growth. Also in this is the reality that the GOP voted against 25 different tax cuts. Yep, they are even voting against things they say they are for when Democrats propose them.

The stupidity and lies continue from the tea baggers.

That’s a mess of racist bastards!

A profile of treason. Why oh why are we taking these traitors seriously? The same idiots that are fine with trillions spent in Iraq to have their sons and daughters killed in an illegal war call a $787 billion jobs and infrastructure (and tax break) plan “socialism”?

Give me a break. Round up the ringleaders, hang them, detain the rest and let’s get on with running this country as adults.

You can start with this bitch who wants to hang a Senator for – and this isn’t my logic but her’s – apparent horse thievery I think.

Tea Party Movement Is Full of Conspiracy Theories – Newsweek.com

The crazy conspiracy lunatics behind the Tea Bagger Traitors. They want a revolution to “restore” our nation to things that “made it great”. Presumably this involves slavery, no women’s suffrage, and child labor.

People need to openly discuss why these idiots are truly crazy and dragging our country down to their intellectual level. Namely, that of a carrot stick. All apologies to any offended vegetables.

Talking about crazy secessionist bastards is apparently hard for the media as it goes out of it’s way to report on the depths of stupid behind the “movement”.

From the Big Three to NPR, trust me, you’ll gain the respect of me and millions of others if you would just call our stupid and insane for what it is and forget worrying about the morons whose opinions you present as “balance” to otherwise sane positions.
