And Allyson Schwartz, who's been acting like she's PA's Knight in Shining Armor for passing this idiotic policy. Of course, Allyson's partly responsible for the mess we're in becasue she helped pass the bankruptcy bill of 2005. reminds me: I have to call senator specter’s office about this.

I've been saying this ever since they came up with the whole "stimulation", and I'm glad to see that my prediction was validated. It's worth pointing out however that even the Chimp admitted as much earlier this month when they released the checks: the language about "buying things people might not ordinarily buy like a flat screen tv" was gone, replaced with "to help people who can't afford groceries and gas." And ya know, that's not a stimulus: that's what we call "welfare". well good morning to you too, farfo!
