Hey Bobbie, what's so hard to understand? 300 million for Federal cars. Someone has to MAKE the cars, the steel, the rubber,the plastic, the glass, the carpet, etc.
Nt'l endowment. Promoting the arts gives jobs to stagehands, carpenters, painters, designers, those who make lighting and sound equipment, and yes, performers and artists. Also people will be paying to see performances or gallery installations bringing in revenue.
Train from Vegas to Disney. Building the triain equals jobs. Having a train creates train workers and revenue. Having a quick route between tourist spots brings dollars to the tourist spots. (man oh man some of these guys are dumb)
New computers. C'mon. Someone will have to MAKE the computers, ship the computers, the plastic, the chips, the software, etc. Any dollar spent will go to someone jackass.
What a hypocite this Jindal is. He said that he is not taking $100 million of the stimulus money; but what he doesn't tell you is that Louisiana is getting $4 billion. So in reality, he is only refusing 2.5% of the money and taking the remaining97.5%. But when you hear him on the cable news circuit, he makes it sound like he is refusing ALL of it. Jindal, if you don't want the money don't take any of it!!!
He inherited 400 billion dollars in debt then increased it further to 1.3 trillion dollars in debt and then held a summit on fiscal responsibility., What a liar and incompetent president...hypocrite!!

Thanks TPM. Now I know everything political for the week in 1 min. I am so smart. I watch TV and get my news everyday. I read the newspaper everyday. And I always relie on TPM to back up my political views. Thank you TPM
Jindal is a real tool...New Orleans is STILL in shambles and he'll deny aid just cause there's parts of the bill that he finds, philosophically, "wasteful". You can argue about that until you turn blue, but take the damn money for the people in your state who are suffering, don't be an ass cause the bill is "yucky"
A Socialist State says: The government decides what rights you have based on the groups needs. A Democratic Republic says: That you have inalienable rights, and that no one has the right to take them from you. Socialism is better!
Democrats and Republicans are good socialist. I just think the democrats are nicer.
I can believe that Arnold is the voice of reason in the GOP Party, and Jindal is acting like a complete ass. I guaurantee the Jindal won't be back. Alot of people are suffering in his state. Jindal is posturing for a leadeship bid, and he is using his peoples economic stability to do so. It is unfortunate, and if the Gov. don't want the money, give it to some other state, I am in total agreeance.
its already been proven that the disneyland to vegas train is a lie. so governor jindickface is either stupid or lying. and more than the louisiana purchase? i would hope so as that was over 200 years ago! god what an asshole. the black community in louisiana is gonna run him out on a rail in his next election.
What the dems are pushing on this cancerous patient (the American Public) is a diet of PCBs, Agent Orange and cigarettes to cure the cancer and people like Bobby Jindahl is trying to point out how absolutely moronic that is!
Meet the Press is trash............ the new extension of the FOX talk show agenda, masquerading as Real Press...100% pro Republican Yellow Press.
I switched after 25 years to "Face the Nation", it always was my second best.... and Meet the Press was my first, now, I cant stand to even hear any comments about it... David Gregory wasn't even bad enough for FOX.
Let's see... Pawlenty and Sanford are "against it" but will take the money... and Jindal will only reject the part of the package that has unemployment insurance changes as a condition attached to the money. I think these republican governors know that they stimulus pacakge is the way to go but they're afraid Rush Limbaugh would call them out supporting Obama's ideas. It's all about politics, otherwise their actions would match their words.
Gov. Douglas (R) is no friend of the left, but he does suport the stimulus, and he'll be accepting the money on behalf of the people of Vermont.
They are calling it a 'stimulus' bill because of its size and its scope, but it is essentially no different than any other federal spending bills.
It's a bunch of Medicaid dollars and a lot of infrastructure spending. There's new program spending and it also re-funds programs which had been frozen by the past administration.
That's the first time I've heard a coherent sentence out of Der Governator, and for once, I agreed with him.
In a situation like this, governors don't have the luxury of being able to put political ideology before the needs of the people/state they are elected to serve.
marniespeaks: the money has not moved from "the nation" to "the people on wall street" or "the banks". guess what, they are now broke. the system failed, and if you want: the money - that has always been only expected revenue and therefore just virtual - is gone, destroyed.
someone will always have the wealth, but believe me - the crash influences everyone who made what you call money (in fact they never owned it, they owned non-fluid risk-based derivatives).
Forbes has announced much fewer billionaires than last year.
And i don't need to wake up, I've studied this stuff in a scientific way. Sorry gal, you're up to some boulevard crap.
I agree with Ahnuld. Jindal is so wedded to principle that he's risking hurting his people. Just so that he can claim a record of adherence to conservative standards and leverage that into a chance at becoming his party's nominee in twenty12. You know that they will put him on the ticket somewhere, and I hope that he gets the nomination. Obama will steamroll right over him.
Seems as though bipartisanship is the goal regardless of weather the plan will save the economy or bury it further.
Yes people are hurting. But can you correct a problem caused by excessive borrowing and spending with more borrowing and spending? Can you cure an addict with another fix?
If Obama wants to stimulate the economy he should renegotiate NAFTA and corporate tax incentives as promised. A new hemp industry would be a BIG BOOM!
Man it's about time we just let the republicans reap what they sew. Don't let them use the money-show them what will happen.
Let these assholes live in the dark ages for a few years while they wait for the market to create jobs-while they wait for executives to actually create jobs instead of buying luxuries and excess for themselves.
Meanwhile, the rest of us can start living in the 21st century, and then when these rednecks realize their mistake, we'll let them re-apply for citizenship.
The hardline Repugs that are postering/opposing this plan will go down in flames. Big ups goes to the Repug's that are putting their people first and are willing to be a part of the solution.
oh lord. Stalinism? Gov. grain quotas? Governor, you are way off the mark.
