The President spoke on the $26 billion bill just passed by Congress to send additional money to state and local governments. I know that we will get some debate on the merits of the bill here (it is a rare bill that is actually paid for) but I would like to emphasize that the Commonwealth should be preparing to release the monies targeted towards public safety and teachers to the local governments immediately. Sitting on the money while localities struggle to put barely adequate resources into public safety and classrooms would not be in anyone’s best interest. And it would run against the explicit purpose behind the additional appropriation. Lets get the money where it belongs.

Your Honor,
For this buy off of the unions and “friends of Democrats”, while the 4 million workers looking for a paycheck are ignored as jobs disappear while Obama’s failed economic policies (if there is any)results in the resignation of the top economic policy makers.
Now what?
Your comment, “in spite of your insistence it’s paid for”, is unprovable.
I wonder how much Deval will leave for your town.
It’s a shameful entry.
Do you still feel the Democratic Party is managing the economy effectively?

Your Honor,
The federal employee “stimulus” is taking money from “Food Stamps” for the “Poor” folks.
Is this so?
I do not know why you implant those Obama Videos.
He is a consummate Liar.
Question; Are still convinced the Democrats are effective at managing the economy?
