McCain Positions Himself To Be Leading Opponent Of Senate Democratic Stimulus Plan



Sen. John McCain took his most direct shot at Barack Obama since the presidential campaign on Friday morning, using a Senate floor speech to criticize the president for mocking the Republican concerns over the massive economic stimulus package...

"The whole point, Mr. President, is to enact tax cuts and spending measures that truly stimulate the economy," McCain said. "There are billions and tens of billions of dollars in this bill which will have no effect within three, four, five, or more years, or ever. Or ever."

8. I tried not to use profanity since the inauguration.

But, FUCK YOU John McCain. I'll be interested in what he says when he tells us "how to get Osama bin Laden." He said he knew how, but I guess he doesn't want it to happen or he would tell the President. Until he discloses this, I will consider everything he says to be as valid and important as his stupid campaign talk.

9. Country First!!

and still lying.

All spending stimulates the economy John, didn't you hear the CBO economist testify to that?

and ten billion dollars in a trillion dollar bill. That's a whole 1%. Are we straining at gnats then while the economy tumbles? It's a faster stimulus if it gets passed faster. Nothing will stimulate the economy if you Republicans are determined to obstruct for 3 or 4 or 5 months while the economy loses another two million jobs.

13. I told him in an email today...

that I was going to work my ass off to unseat any 'pub running for re-election in 2010 (money, time, phone calls and even traveling to their states to knock on doors). I also told him I did not appreciate the effort to obstruct and slander MY President. It was civil, but kind of nasty. I'd had enough of him to last a lifetime by November 4th and still he rears his ugly head as if he actually has any relevance.
