		<description>Too bad the GOP didn&#039;t critize Wall Street before the collapse of the economy. I guess it&#039;s only the poor who should never catch a break.

		<description>&quot;they ... allowed him to put into place his signature Bush Tax Cuts&quot;

They &quot;allowed&quot; him? Well that WAS gracious since they didn&#039;t have enough votes to stop him.

And I was really talking more about liberals in general - not necessarily politicians. Liberals were totally viscious for 8 years. And they were worse towards McCain/Palin. So you can get off your little soap box about how accommodating Liberals are.

		<description>Though to be fair to this regular FoxNews analyst, he&#039;s obviously insane
&quot;Such proclamations aren&#039;t unusual for Peters, however.  He actually has a bizarre penchant for executions.  Recently, Peters stated his lusty desire to see the U.S. government execute all prisoners at Guantanamo Bay--without regard for their legal rights, and in spite of the fact that, in his own words, &quot;there will be miscarriages of justice.&quot;  And in another instance in May of this year, Peters also called for &quot;military attacks on the partisan media.&quot;&quot;

		<description>&quot;No, GOPers are criticizing non-economic spending hidden within &quot;stimulus&quot; legislation that was supposed to create jobs.&quot; Posted by: tjp612 &#124; Jul 20, 2009 2:55:07 PM
_____________________________________
The Recovery and Reinvestment plan had blocks of money specifically targeted to assist people losing their jobs and hurting during this massive economic downturn.
Those funds were there from the beginning and were designed to shore up unemployment assistance and health care support for those losing work and/or vulnerable.
Republicans whine in sympathy with people losing their jobs - but actually help feed them? Heavens no! Let them suffer!

		<description>‘Trust me’ is Not Enough for Health Care Reform
Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell
Wednesday, July 15, 2009
&quot;“They predicted the stimulus would keep the unemployment rate from approaching double digits. We passed the stimulus, and unemployment is now approaching double digits. It was supposed to keep millions of jobs from disappearing. We passed it, and since then we’ve lost more than two million jobs. It was supposed to save or create between three and four million jobs. We passed it, and now the administration is backpedaling on that prediction too. Now it says it’s ‘very hard to say’ how many jobs have been saved or created. The stimulus was supposed to have an immediate impact. We passed it, and it hasn’t. Despite all the predictions about its effect on the economy, the administration now says it expects unemployment to continue to rise in the months ahead.&quot;

		<description>Foxnews relying upon the WSJ.
Convenient to have 1 lying course confirm another.
FoxNews analysts have in the last two weeks hoped for a major terrorist attack on a US city and the death of the solider currently being held in Afghanistan
------------------------------------
Ryan C,
Care to provide back-up for that?

		<description>&quot;Now GOPers are criticizing food for the poor?&quot;
No, GOPers are criticizing non-economic spending hidden within &quot;stimulus&quot; legislation that was supposed to create jobs.
This spending should have been presented within more appropriate legislation.

		<description>How about an analysis of how many of these projects are going to Democrat districts vs. GOP districts in each state. That could be very interesting.
