It is not surprising that people will come out to get free cash from the government. So the Dem's Cash for Clunkers scheme has obviously been successful. There was enough cash offered to make it worth people's time so they have been showing up in droves. What is also not surprising is that the liberal scheme includes enough strings and rules that its implementation has been a mess.

As usual there are many unintended consequences. This lib scheme also demonstrates that if Obama and the other Dems really were interested in stimulating the economy with all of the money they took from generations to come, that they would have done as many conservatives suggested by simply giving it to tax payers. If Obama would have just handed it out to those who pay taxes then the economy would arguably have already recovered. But as demonstrated by the Obama clunker scheme he was more interested in pushing a liberal agenda. As he and others in his Administration have said repeatedly, never let a good disaster go by without taking full advantage.

This is a relatively tiny lib scheme compared to what they intend to do to the health care industry. Just imagine how they will screw that up. It is inconceivable that Obama and the Dems pushing through legislation in the dead of night without debate will ever produce the results that pretend to want to attain.

Obama and the Dems have a track record after 6 months in office that demonstrates that they mismanage the economy and international relations, and yet the people have yet to demonstrate loud and long enough to get them to stop. This congressional summer break IS the time to make yourself heard by your representatives. Make sure that they know without a doubt that you will work to take their seat from them if they go along with Obama's liberal and socialist agenda. YOU can make a difference and stop the Obama madness.

Clear Skies,
Jim

"You guys make a pretty good photo op" Obama said about the military. A perfect example of how libs support the troops.

Sometimes, I think it would help for the Obama administration to stop and breath calmly. Next election, I might vote for the Natural Law Party. wink
