Crist: Stimulus Has Created Jobs, I Don’t Regret Hugging Obama

[Oddball]

What would happen if we took all the stimulus money and invested it in a company, lets say...General Electric.

Of course we would have stipulation that GE builds wind machines supplying thousands of NEW jobs. (No that requires regulation.),

The profits gained could either be used for re-investment for more of the same government programs, (oh no bigger government) or to pay off the nation debt (government makes a profit on the "free market? That is socialism)

Where do you propose to get the money, Lucky the Leprechaun?

Instead we bail out wall street "poker" players with a gimme attitudes, and left to their own devises, who save their naked asses with golden parachutes. Heads the win, tails they break even. No no! No need for regulation.

We privatize profits and socialize losses, and brag how we have saved the free market.

That was a stupid idea, too....So what?

Oh he regrets it alright. Now he's just spinning. Crist is all done and that's a good thing. Rubio is the right choice.

There is still money left that is yet to be allocated. So if my ideas are stupid let me hear something intelligent from your idea bank. I do think we need some real ideas.

Crist: Stimulus Has Created Jobs, I Don't Regret Hugging Obama

Florida Governor Charlie Crist won’t win over many of his conservative critics with his
latest move — declaring emphatically that the president’s stimulus has created tens of thousands of jobs in his state and expressing “not one iota” of regret for working with Obama (indeed, hugging him) on the jobs-creating proposal.

Appearing outside the White House on Monday, the Florida Republican Senatorial candidate pushed back against his GOP critics — notably Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.) — who have declared that the stimulus has not created one single job in America.

“It is not the case in Florida — we accepted the stimulus money; all of my fellow governors did,” Crist said. “I think it was the responsible and right thing to do for the people and it puts people above politics. In Florida alone, for example, it created or maintained at least 87,000 jobs; 27,000 of those jobs are educators and teachers throughout the state. I dare say what the impact would be throughout the state if those teachers were out of work, unable to put bread on the table of their families. This is necessary and it relates to job creation.”

Second Repub to come out and denounce the 'It hasn't created one job!' crowd..Thoughts?

So how do you feel about Tim Graney the "tea partier" from the 14th congressional district of Texas?

The "money that is left" was printed up out of thin air to begin with.

What you do is let failed companies fail, liquidate the losses and let the market right itself.

There's still no free lunch.
