This "Stimulus" Plan Sucks

It seems that Michael Moore is going to get fatter and fatter. With President Obama's economic recovery package sitting around in Congress getting picked apart, another nice detail comes forward showing that Hollywood will (finally!) benefit from the "stimulus".

In the proposed plan, Hollywood would receive a $246 million tax break over the course of 11 years. Coupled with $335 million towards Herpes prevention, that's about $581 million of "stimulus" going towards a Hollywood tax break and disinfecting Pam Anderson's diseased crotch.

Add $5 billion to build more public housing and we've really got a great plan on our hands.

If Barack Obama is anything like the man he "was" when he ran for office, he needs to figure this bill out and stop caring about if people like him. He promised to clean up Capitol Hill (starting with 2 people he nominated to lead on it). There is some really dumb shit in that bill that is NOT going to help our economy. Right now it's a Democratic laundry list of stuff they've been trying to pass the last 8 years. The sad thing is that we REALLY NEED a stimulus plan. Our economy is in shambles and we need to fix it. Everyone (except idiots) can agree that some of these earmarks make no sense.

Then again, look at the people who are putting stuff into it. Nancy Pelosi recently commented, "Every month that we do not have an economic recovery package, 500 million Americans lose their jobs. I don't think we can go fast enough to stop that." Funny. Last time I checked the population of America was roughly 300 million. Jesus.

We can only hope Barack takes control of this and can fix it. Then, he truly would be a savior.

Breaking News: Nancy Pelosi Hates Herpes

Freshly minted President Barack Obama's stimulus package passed through the House of Representatives this past week despite zero GOP support. 

Passing with a 244-188 vote, the proposed $819 billion dollar plan will enter the Senate where GOP Senators have vowed to fight the package from passing. The proposal, among the largest in history, is being ridiculed by GOP Senators who claim the lack of focused investment and small tax cuts will result in more wasted money.

Screw those GOP Senators right? Those old cronies who are just doing the opposite of Barack Obama to spite him, right? Don't be so quick to judge. I'm not quite sure what $819 billion looks like, but I think we might want to focus on what exactly is in the "stimulus" plan before we spend almost a trillion dollars on it. 

And who better to bring the whole thing in to focus than U.S. Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi. That's right, our Speaker of the House decided it would be a phenomenal idea to earmark $335 million of the "stimulus" package towards STD prevention. Yep. You read that correctly. STD prevention. Apparently people without STD's will enhance our country's chances to prevail in the economic long run. 

What's even better than spending $335 million on preventing herpes is watching Nancy Pelosi try to rationalize spending $335 million on preventing herpes. All I know is prevention is the first step. Watch and enjoy. And sleep tight knowing that the Democrats are off to a flying start with Barack Obama. And that Nancy Pelosi wants to make sure you never get gonorrhea.
