Surrounded By Reality

Madison, WI has been described as "43 square miles of land surrounded by reality". Actually, I think it's 77...... Being a Madison native I liked this title. Agree or disagree, the important thing is to get involved and learn what's going on and how it affects you..

Pelosi's Gonna Cost Obama The Election

Pelosi says $150B economic stimulus plan needed

Read the story above- can't the Democrats make this woman the ambassador to Borneo or somewhere similar? The first economic stimulus package ( $158 Billion) was a major blunder. The government basically borrowed the money (mostly from the Chinese would be my guess), spent about $50 million of the money for two letters explaining it to taxpayers and printing checks.

The remainder in large part, (other than people who used wisely used the money to payoff debt) of it was spent on products made overseas (LCD TV's, etc.) It had a very small overall effect on the economy outside of retail and probably didn't create any permanent new good paying jobs.

This is just plain stupid. Isn't insanity defined as doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results?

Just when Obama has McCain on the ropes, Pelosi comes along and gives McCain ammunition for the final debate and potential reason for undecided voters to go McCain's way. Hasn't she listened to the debates? McCain's only hope is to validate the Democrats "tax & spend" reputation which Obama has successfully fought and she opens her big mouth.

I've told friends for a long time that the Democrats are always able to figure out a way to lose an election-this may be it...

Just plain dumb.....Who'd she get this idea from? Tim Robbins? Susan Sarrandon? Woody Harrelson? Ted Danson? Barbara Streisand? Roseanne Barr?

Any wonder California is in money trouble?
