We're All Babies or IdiotsDepending on which liberal pundit you read today. Andrew Sullivan
goes for the former:
What you have here is big babyism. After the worst downturn in memory, bequeathed a massive and growing debt, two failing wars, a financial sector threatening to bring down the entire economy, Obama has betrayed this person by preventing a Second Great Depression.
Yeah, who cares if unemployment is two percentage points higher than the One promised; at least it's not Hooverville time (yet). Andrew as usual can't read:
If Obama and Bush had refused to bail out the banks, does this small business owner believe she'd be in business at all?
According
to her post she's not in business any longer:
I was a small business owner during 2008 election and my business ultimately failed under the weight of a horrendous economy.
Joe Klein, aka anonymous
opts for dumb:
Absolutely amazing poll results from CNN today about the $787 stimulus package: nearly three out of four Americans think the money has been wasted. On second thought, they may be right: it's been wasted on them. Indeed, the largest single item in the package--$288 billion--is tax relief for 95% of the American public. This money is that magical $60 to $80 per month you've been finding in your paycheck since last spring. Not a life changing amount, but helpful in paying the bills.
