The 'Stimulus' Package -- All Economists Agree?

"There is no disagreement," said then-President-elect Barack Obama Jan. 9, "that we need action by our government, a recovery plan that will help to jump-start the economy."

No disagreement?

Days ago, the libertarian think tank Cato Institute took out a full-page ad. It listed more than 200 economists — by name — who reject more government spending and instead urge tax cuts and smaller government. The full-pager ran in "minor" newspapers, such as The New York Times, the Los Angeles Times and The Washington Post.

So, President Obama, please read these economists' "disagreement." Whip out your BlackBerry.

As usual the Magic Marxist Messiah simply LIES about the opposition to his socialist agenda. A couple of hundred U.N. bureaucrats who are the leadership of a U.N. commission of 2200, claim that global warming is caused by man. 31,000 PhDs and scientists in climate research sign a petition saying this is a lie. Al Gore (along with Barack Obama) then ignores the 31,000 and insists NO ONE disagrees with the LIE that man is causing global warming.

How can anyone with a brain ever again believe anything that Barack Obama says. He is a bald faced LIAR! He simply LIES about the need for the Trillion Dollar expansion of government waste and pork. LIES!
