"NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- The recovery is picking up steam as employers boost payrolls, but economists think the government's stimulus package and jobs bill had little to do with the rebound, according to a survey released Monday.
In latest quarterly survey by the National Association for Business Economics, the index that measures employment showed job growth for the first time in two years -- but a majority of respondents felt the fiscal stimulus had no impact.
That sentiment is shared for the recently passed $17.7 billion jobs bill that calls for tax breaks for businesses that hire and additional infrastructure spending. More than two-thirds of those polled believe the measure won't affect payrolls."
So: nearly a trillion dollars of our hard-earned money spent on bailouts and unions to keep the Democrat constituencies happy, and it had no effect on unemployment or the general economy.
I---and other conservatives---told you so last year when they were debating the "stimulus." We told you so when they passed the "stimulus." We told you so when they started to spend the "stimulus." We told you so for the last 13 months.
The "stimulus" failed because it was a political act, not an economic one.
Now it's finally dawned on the economists? Duh.
Bush started the giving the Billions away. Hope UGGA BUNGA got the message!

CAREFUL about Hucksterbee, whose sudden "conversion" on ILLEGALS entering this country ILLEGALLY is more than a bit suspicous.
Kind of like all the Yankees fans who come out soon as the Stanks are doing good.
Hucksterbee is not a tough law guy, and if you need proof I can post plenty of links! I have posted extensively on regarding his funding for social spending on ILLEGALS and on his curious LIEberal handing of granting MANY MANY pardons to HARDENED RAPISTS and MURDERES!
As for Imam Al-Fartson goes to Arizona, what did you expect? Media coverage reminding us of GREASY JHERI-CURL FAT AL'S VIOLENT PAST, that includes inciting to RIOT and MURDER?
He IS a racist and he is in Arizona lobbying for more democRATic voters to help further his RACIST agenda. Nothing new there, MUCH UNLIKE Hucksterbee. The FAT ONE doesn't hide anything. He gets people like Slimus to cover for him.
This whitewashing that Slimus and others provide Al-Fartson is VERY dangerous for this country.
The violence and several murders associated with the FAT Imam Al-Fartson are documented FACT. Crown Heights, Tawana Brawley most notoriously among them.
And now the FAT GREASY ONE with a trail of blood on his hands is in Arizona.
How come the LAMESTREAM has not frittered and fretted about VIOLENCE and RACISM??!!!
Nor have I heard anything from the Nasty Peloser who had a loud mouth re. the Tea Parties!
VIOLENCE COMES FROM THE LEFT!!! They picked the wrong issue to propagandize with when they started crying about the "violence" and the "racism" at the Tea Parties!
Now that FAT GREASY AL is in Arizona to join his buddies of "La Raza" the wheels have definitely come off the myth that's being propagandized about those "racist" "violent" Tea Parties.

You're right, but your timing is off. The plunge protection team will keep pumping vast sums into the stock market to artificially prop it up until just AFTER the election.
Then you'll get your double dip, your massive crash, and the GreatEST Depression.
The party in power always benefits from the PPT.
And an after-midterm crash would give the PPT time enough to prop the market up once again for 2012.
Barring a Depression. Which has been coming for quite awhile.
The PPT, indeed Wall Street as a whole, used to favor the GOP. Until 8 years of Bush/Cheney. That changed their outlook 180 degrees. Even they realize, crooks swimming with sharks as they are, that if they are unregulated they can destroy the planet's economy for decades.

Soggybritches, what you saw there is a classic example of LIEb-logic. Just like the Bama who is worried about the "civil rights" of his future voting bloc, namely the ILLEGALS flooding into Arizona.
I think it's beyond time that the Tea Party movement consolidate and organize.
Problem is that we're more individualists than collectivists and thus we find the enemy - who is very good at organizing since they ARE collectivists - is far ahead of us in these regards.
How do we get a bunch of hard-working individualists to stand together and THROW these usurpers OUT of the White House, the Senate and the Congress and the illegals OUT of the country?!
Now they're even trying to pass Shamnesty before the November election.

We all know by now that the Bama is "mobilizing his voter base", which does not include whites.
And the lamestream has no comment, of course.
Funny how they always make this big deal about the GOP not doing enough to "attract blacks and Hispanics".
Same for their comments about the Tea Parties.
It seems that if the Bama has a base he wants to appeal to he can do so but then so should others.
What's good for the goose.. and so on..

The Nazi X spouts more of its fascist propaganda. all of it designed to disrupt and distract from what is going on today.
Namely that the Bama doesn't think he needs white voters. He certainly doesn't incluuuuude them in his latest "rawk the vote" recording.
then there is the VIOLENCE and rock and bootle throwing by La Raza and affiliates in Arizona while the lamestream and the politicians are busy pointing their fingers at the Tea party.

Ummah,
I'm afraid no matter what Bam Bam says, it will not penetrate his fawning fans’ thick skulls. They read into Bam Bam what they want to see and hear. When he makes racially divisive statements, the Left interprets his words to mean compassion and inclusiveness. Moreover, the Lame Stream Media sycophants are truly something to behold. Any criticism of The Bama -- no matter how valid -- will be interpreted by them, or at least portrayed by them, as evidence of racism. The Bam Bam can do no wrong in their minds. Any of us that DO criticize him are countered by the standard response: "Your a racist; you just can't stand the thought of a black-man being president" .. or some such mindless drivel. The sad fact for conservatives is it actually works; it’s and extremely effective weapon, it invariably shuts down all legitimate debate! You need not look any further than the spineless Republicans as proof.

M/M we do indeed need to support the governor. Maybe a tectonic shift is starting. I f the libs boycott AZ, then that means NO LIBS in AZ and thus a very attractive place to visit or even live!
Maybe Texas is next and the libs will boycott them as well :-)
Then all the illegals will go to where they are welcome! They will go where the libs are :-)
and WE will go where there are NO LIBS!

DJ, I am in agreement most of the time, but the Republicans had at least a little spine when they stood together to oppose BamaCare.
And I think they are joined by one demonRAT in opposition to the Wall Street Bill now being proposed.
We should encourage them to stay the PATRIOT course.
You are right in saying that no matter what the Bama syas his LIEberal fan base will never realize the racism he spouts.
That's because that particular racism is internalized in lib-camp, aka the eduMACational system and even more so in the "institutions of higher learning".
When they are being taught by "professors" such as Ward Churchill, Bill Ayers and this racist Kambon freak, then what do you expect?

I meant to add that the things that the Bama says may not ever change his LIEberal fan base's minds about him but what about all those "sing voters" and independents?
People of good will who might have had enough of Bush and though they'd give the nice young black guy a chance and then that McCain is a bit shop-worn anyhow and really doesn't have that much to say.. so they voted for Obama.. after all, they thus became part of History, voting for "the first ever black President".
Such a Historic Moment and all!

"Jay, are you saying that it is stupid what bama is doing? You have read on this site that we think Bush was wrong. Are you now willing to admit that Obama is at least twice as wrong?"
First, I don't agree with what the government is doing in everything. That applies throughout history. One of my biggest comments made here. Is that I constantly see people blameing one side only for all their problems. When, it was done by both sides.They are hippocritical in seeing the faults done by someone else. And, not their side. Everytime I mention that the Republicans did it too. I get attacked by those who defend what they did. Or, they ignore what they did, etc.All politicians only care about getting reelected. And, all bills passed have huge influence by lobbyists. I mentioned where that for the Healthcare bill to be passed. The Dems had to go along with what the insurance lobbyists wanted. In, the fact that all people had to buy insurance. Both parties are guilty of that.
Posted by: jay | April 27, 2010 at 12:23 PM
