In a major victory for President Obama, Democrats strong-armed a $787 billion, 1,071 page, 8-inch-thick stimulus package through congress late Friday night (in record speed and without understanding) that has left many scratching their heads and asking WHAT?

“In a major victory for President Obama”

Be careful what you ask for in life.

Sometimes you get it.

My copies of The Federalist Papers came in the mail last week. I’ve got to write my cover letters and get them to my CongressCritters.

I’ll bet nearly ALL in Congress today have not read the Constitution all the way through and I’m sure no one’s read The Federalist Papers.

Why?

Government is there to print worthless legal tender notes to take care of ALL life's mishap's.

Aren't they?

Federalism is a cornerstone of the Constitution!

Most in Congress in real time work to find ways to defy the Constitution instead of guaranteeing freedoms via the Constitution, per their political agenda.

How did it happen?
No one had the time to read the entire bill, but over martinis - Democrat says to Republican, “Read this - see how much is included for your district.”

That sums up events since November 4th, 2008. Every victory for the Marxist and his friends in the democRAT party is a loss for the once-free United States.
