Someone sent me the link to the website where you can see President Obama’s spin on how the stimulus money is affecting life in each state. It also has “heartwarming” stories about how all of the stimulus is positively impacting people’s lives. One tidbit caught my attention:
“The immediate tax cuts showed up in my husband’s bi-weekly paycheck, an extra $35. That doesn’t sound like a whole lot, but that’s an extra $70 per month. With that, my husband and I can take a vacation to Pennsylvania for the weekend, something we haven’t been able to do in two years. “
Wow! Somebody had better alert the media. We never saw anything like this when the $1,000+/year tax breaks under President Bush were in effect.
Now THAT’S transparency.
What, where in Pennsylvania??? the HOJO’s 2 blocks from their house?
