Using your way of looking at things one could argue just about anything.<br /><br />Anyway, the truth is most of that money went to two places: A) unionized construction work, and B) more government.<br /><br />Sounds like Obama lifers to me.Rich Hortonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15561931187909269006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9073298.post-64846303825725991632010-08-22T17:32:51.993-05:002010-08-22T17:32:51.993-05:00Dear Larry,

Or about the interest in a rather significant number of prominent Republicans, including the Senate Minority Leader, in repealing the 14th Amendment's guarantee of citizenship to all who are born in the United States, and their fears of "anchor babies" or in the case of Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) "terror babies." These actions are clearly based in xenophobia, racism, and religious bigotry. <br /><br />As far as Obama helping people outside his core constituency: Of all the states, Sarah Palin's Alaska was the greatest beneficiary of the stimulus on a per-capita basis. The Recovery Act gave $3,145 per capita to Alaska, the largest amount of all the states and nearly triple the national average. That question was rather easy to answer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
