I don’t care who Stein backed. He’s probably numerically right. I wonder if he included ACORN under the union umbrella for some reason or if ACORN handouts are
in addition to unions.
In any case, no doubt if you are not a liberal in a liberal (non-productive) “business”, you ain’t gettin’ a damn thing.
Here's the thing: We shouldn't have to take Ben Stein's word for it. This is the internet age after all. Why doesn't Stein and/or NewsMax include a link to the official copy of the House bill and why doesn't Stein cite the specific pages for the dollar figures he used to come up with his totals?
This isn't a slam against Stein. I just get frustrated when online columnists and online publications don't include links. Stein said he read the entire 860-page bill; he must have put post-it notes on the key pages. It wouldn't take that much more effort to identify those pages in his column.
I wonder how Bob the BOs lawyer will answer to this?
