More of the Same Old, Same Old

Congress is working on an $825 billion "stimulus" package to be voted on sometime this year, probably February. Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi has said it could get larger.

Apparently, it's chock full of .... what we used to call pork, now they call earmarks.

As House Minority Leader, John Boehner, said of the bill, "“How can you spend hundreds of millions of dollars on contraceptives? How does that stimulate the economy?”

For a guy espousing "change", it certainly sounds like business as usual to me.

C'mon America, wake up! Flush Washington clean and start over again.
