Bipartisan Agreement That Stimulus Program Worked--GOP Issa & Biden Agree!

Reagan only knew how to keep real tabs on microphone expenditures. Reagan was a fellow who could create the most gigantic federal deficits in history, to that time: With the most gigantic peacetime tax increase ever!

"Reagan may have resisted calls for tax increases, but he ultimately supported them. In 1982 alone, he signed into law not one but two major tax increases. The Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act (TEFRA) raised taxes by $37.5 billion per year and the Highway Revenue Act raised the gasoline tax by another $3.3 billion. According to a recent Treasury Department study, TEFRA alone raised taxes by almost 1 percent of the gross domestic product, making it the largest peacetime tax increase in American history. An increase of similar magnitude today would raise more than $100 billion per year." ~National Review (NR)


National Review (NR) was founded by the late author William F. Buckley, Jr. If you are a true conservative you know who he was.

3. The turnaround of job losses in the Obama two years: Then compares favorably with the jobs creation of the Reagan eight years. From losses exceeding 700,000 per month--there have now been gains exceeding 200,000 jobs per month. A mil. jobs per month turnaround in 24 months is a lot more jobs than Reagan saved.

turnaround???? Obama said 2 years ago that with his stimulus unemployment would never hit 8%. In fact with his stimulus it has hit 9% today and is still rising. His own words say he is a huge failure- the most debt and unemployment since WW 2 .
 
Why would it matter to the left what Ca. republican Issa says? Is the left so desperate that they think a quote from a republican can change the facts that are evident in the stimulous disaster that Obama and the democrats created? Issa's state is bankrupt to the point of releasing monsters back into society because the prisons are overcrowded. Issa's constituents are in danger because every politician in California looked the other way for decades while the golden state was dying under federal regulations, bureaucratic crap and illegal immigration.

Interesting considering some main reasons we are broke are because of the cost of building new prisons (we can't keep up) and the prison guard union and their contracts.
 
The Bureau of Labor Statistics Household Survey shows 2007 Employment at 146.047 mil. The Obama Turnaround has brought the BLS Household Survey Employment back up to 139.779 mil. persons, up from a low of 137.792 mil. Before the Obama Stimulus was taking hold, the 2009 BLS Household Survey Employment was at 139.877 mil.

Bush lost the 8.855.0 mil. jobs while still just haning around. That had to be slowed, and finally was. Now the Household Survey even finds this, in the "dismal" report for May, 2011:

"Among the marginally attached, there were 822,000 discouraged workers in May, a
decrease of 261,000 from a year earlier. (These data are not seasonally adjusted.)
Discouraged workers are persons not currently looking for work because they believe
no jobs are available for them. The remaining 1.4 million persons marginally attached
to the labor force in May had not searched for work in the 4 weeks preceding the
survey for reasons such as school attendance or family responsibilities. (See
table A-16.)"

When they start showing up--which is just last month--then things are not as bad as they were. These are not likely the high-skilled workers.

Anyone can guess that a lot of commentators are mostly alarmed about those people now being included in the recovery. The commentator tend to be rich and white, or rich like the Obamas: Who can't stand having their kids in the D. C. schools, themsleves. Jews Forget things too: In the Ivy league, supportive of the law that does that to people!

2007 to 2011 is four years that the Republicans created, and starting with the Stingy Bush Stimulus package!

You have over a hundred Republican congressmen taking credit for jobs created by the stimulus, a package each and every one voted against.

Considering they also want to take credit for getting Bin Laden, it's hardly a "surprise".

You have any proof of that, considering most of them are freshmen?

Thought not....

It has been known for over 15 months that over 100 GOP elected officials have been taking credit for the Obama Stimulus, and projects they opposed, from the start.

On House GOP Website, Republican Leadership Takes Credit For Successful Stimulus Project | ThinkProgress

Soon it will be over 15 years that GOP like HortySir poster have been keeping the warbucks, and twaddling with a penis in between the loins--knowing that U. S. nationals in military uniform were not allowed to be so engaged in foreign nations, and even being murdered and mutiliated in foreign nations basis-free instead.

Theere are posters like HortySir poster, who so hate U. S. Nationals that they do that to them. There are the similiar kinds of folks at GOP claiming credit for the Stimulus of the Democrats and Obama.

The Stingy Party of Abraham Lincoln, which caused the giant downturn--with the stingy stimulus of 2008, and its refusals to fund and adequately equip U. S military in the field--even made the stingy showing in New Hampshire, trying to find a candidate with a non-Negro dialect that could win.

The Obama Democrats hit the correct range of Stimuls Funding amounts. The Party of Abraham Lincoln--Herbert Hoover--Richard Nixon--Bush I & II--has only been around from its inception to kill off people who are U. S. Nationals, declaring them even to not be U. S. Nationals anymore.

Recent immigrants understand that.

of course intelligent people know a stimulus is a bubble that bursts leaving you worse off , not better off. A stimulus is used only to pander to the 100 % pure ignorance of liberals who believe in government magic exactly like little children believe in Santa Claus.
