So yesterday I’m flipping through the 8 channels I get here in the Recreational Vehicle and I know, somewhere deep inside, that channel 2 is CNN (or HLN, or MSNBC; liberal you know) and that channel 3 is Fox News (fair and balance, okay so maybe it tips my way a little bit, shutup). Anyway, I’m scanning the channels, takes about 4 seconds and I see this group of 6 people discussing the economic stimulus package and they are giving it a pretty good wallop for it’s money. The usual stuff for Fox News, won’t see any real jobs for 10 years, economy should have been allowed to recover on its’ own, we’re all going to hell and Congress now owns the hand-basket…that kind of stuff…So I hit the up arrow to see what ESPN has on and low and behold, Glenn Beck is holding court and discussing possible future outcomes for the year 2014 (that’s one year after our new president is elected, in case you’re not paying attention).
So, I pop the down arrow and lo and behold, CNN is doing a little stimulus package revisit (3 days later…) and they are starting to think that maybe, just maybe this stimulus package was passed a little too quickly and maybe this won’t be the best thing since sliced bread, and who’s going to pay the bill for this incredible amount of pork!!! HELLO, Ding, ding, ding…anybody home??? Idiots. Be careful what you ask for, you just might get it. Oh well, stinks being us but it’s okay because we won’t be us too much longer.
God bless us all, we’re going to need it.
I’m with June. La dee dee. La dee dah. Living in my dumb and happy bubble. Not watching the news for a few years. (i can’t stand that stupid shot of the DJIA in the corner… ugh)
What stimulus package? What are you talking about? I have been drinking since the day Bush left the White House lawn. Wake me when 2012 is here.
