D'oh...your links don't work, mr. network expert. Even if they did, they
don't prove a thing.

What's the matter? You *couldn't find yourself a job on that long list?

I'm not surprised.


Speaking of jobs, my good man, what job do you have?

Do you think all of those earmarks are from democrats???
Do you also know about the earmarks that were in Bush's bailouts?
It's funny that none of you are denouncing Bush's bank bailouts that
did nothing but provide bonuses for the fat cats.- Hide quoted text -

Yes, all of the earmarks are from dems. ,The Republicans were totally
cut out of this bill. I am not talking about the bipartisan repub/dem
bill signed during the Bush administration and supported equally by
both sides. I am talking about this bill which nobody has debunked my
claim that is 5% stimulus and 95% payback...

each job to a staggering $460,000+ Link

Educating our future is a grand thing.

costs of providing special education and related services to children

income tax Link


Haven't heard of it.

$36 billion for expanded unemployment benefits Link


Good, anything to get people spending is a good thing

$20 billion for increased food stamps, including lifting restrictions
on how long welfare dependents can receive food stamp benefits. Link


Would you rather people that's lost everything because of greedy
people starve to death?

I know someone who works in a similar program in NY, and it creates a
lot of jobs.

$5 billion is devoted to public housing Link


Devoted how?

Good, then more people can go to work, thus energizing the economy.

$1.7 billion is to be spent to help the homeless Link


Help them how?

$1.1 billion for so-called federal comparative effectiveness research
in regard to health-care services Link


Please expand, what is it?

$1 billion goes for the Low Income Home Energy Assistance program, to
help low income families pay their heating bills Link


And that's a bad thing?

$500 million to speed the processing of applications for Social
Security disability claims. Link


How?

$200 million goes for senior nutrition programs, such as Meals on
Wheels Link


Good, we've long neglected the one's who have made this country great.

$200 million for AmeriCorps, to help satisfy “increased demand for
services for vulnerable populations to meet critical needs in
communities across the U.S. Link


What does it mean?

$120 million to finance part-time work for seniors in community
service agencies. Link


How?

$100 million to reduce lead-based paint hazards for children in low
income housing Link


Nothing wrong with that. And it will create jobs.

MISC

32 new federal programs. Link


Such as?

$79 billion is to go the states to maintain their runaway government
spending, particularly for such spendthrift jurisdictions as

Biased reporting is hardly ever factually honest.

$5.2 billion for ACORN, the left-leaning nonprofit group under federal
investigation for massive voter fraud. Link “Community organizers,”
such as the left-wing lobbying group ACORN, would get their own new
slush fund of up to $750-million. Link
