#7 They can stick the money up their asses as far as I am concerned. Some of my neighbors could use some help however. Maybe he can come up with a "stimulus package" to help pay for mailboxes and posts destroyed in my neighborhood early this morning. The destruction coincided with the disappearance of McCain Palin signs. Residences with no campaign signs were not targeted.

Where do you think a lot of this money is going to go? And this doesn't mention all the earmarks which are going to be stuffed in.
