“I think PK expected as much as well, hence all the negative criticism at the beginning of the year. However, Krugman has admitted that Obama's plan seems to be working - it's just that the stimulus was too small.”

“Comments about one's physical attributes are not necessary if one has a good point to make.
And just so you know (but you won't want to), conservatives certainly do not oppose helping the poor and less fortunate. They do not think you do that by giving them a handout, but rather creating a climate in which they can get a job. Welfare creates slaves.
There will always be those among us who cannot work or provide for themselves. They need to be taken care of, obviously. Liberal policies create people who can't take care of themselves out of intelligent able bodied citizens.
As for the unemployed, the best way to help them (we think) is to create a climate where they can become employed. Everything the current administration and congress has done (and threatens to do) is a disincentive for employers.”

“Okie, right on - and Kentucky is a POOR and UNEDUCATED, UNEMPLOYED, UNINFORMED and generally a drug-addled state. McConnell is owned by Tobacco and they are mad about SCHIP already, so any type of healthcare makes McConnell look like he did not work hard enough for Rethugs. GOOD. FIRE HIM, KENTUCKY VOTERS and get someone who will actually do something for your state besides Tobacco and CLEAN COAL - what a friggin' joke that is.”

I agree GN is p.o.n.d sl.i.m.e, have no idea why she would agree to breathe the same air, much less agree with him on any issue of substance,
but that is no reason to s.l.i.m.e Jane who has done so much for so many, and been a huge leader.
Not to play the gender card but women left leaders dont get much respect among this group. Women are always the first to go af.ter other women too, I notice.”
