Wow a new plan!!

Guess what? Obama has a new plan! He says we have to spend our way out of the recession! Not you and me spending, but the government needs to spend. So, he'll tax us, then spend our money to help the economy. This is brilliant. This guy has new and fresh ideas and really demonstrates creative thinking. He personifies "Change you can believe in"!
I mean who ever heard of a tax and spend Democrat? This is new!


WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama outlined new multibillion-dollar stimulus and jobs proposals Tuesday, saying the nation must continue to "spend our way out of this recession" until more Americans are back at work.

Without giving a price tag, Obama proposed a package of new spending for highway, bridge and other infrastructure projects, deeper tax breaks for small businesses and tax incentives to encourage people to make their homes more energy efficient.

"We avoided the depression many feared," Obama said in a speech at the Brookings Institution, a Washington think tank. But, he added, "Our work is far from done."

For the third time in a week, Obama sought to focus on job creation, noting that the unemployment rate was still at 10 percent in November, though down slightly from its 10.2 percent peak. He said "a staggering" 7 million Americans have lost jobs since the recession began two years ago.

America has begun to see the light, it has taken longer than I thought it would. His approval rating is plummeting daily. Gibbs went on the offensive about "polls" today.

This coming from a president and a staff that have been labled as obsessive in their attention to polls and trends.

It's a 2nd Stimulus plan. Since not all the monies were not spent in the first package he thought up this new plan which is just about the same as the old Stimulus plan with one or two add-ons.

Go to a bank and try to get a small business loan.
