I “totally” agree with him, except for this:

“It isn’t a stimulus package. It’s a wealth redistribution bill. Taxpayers and investors know it and they are reacting accordingly. Nanny state dependents don’t know it yet, but they soon will. “

I don’t think “taxpayers” know it yet. Polls show the stimulus still has narrow majority support.

And as for nanny state dependants, I think they DO know it. And it’s not surprising they like it.

One aspect he forgot to mention though is this: If your eally examine the situation, there are an awful lot of people “on the dole” (in one form or another) right now. All Obama has to do is bump that statistic up maybe 5% - 10%, and he’s effectively got a lock on power forever more.

All true, especially the last part.

I tried to tell friends before the election not to gamble on one disastrous Obama term, because the nation will not recover from even the damage of the first year...

They didn’t listen... They were fractured conservatives and libertarians who refused to work together. Now they will pay...
