nbc news opening....???where did ALL the stimulus money GO??
so, it's all disappeared?

the implication in brian williams opening is that it's gone and the enonomy is no better.

geez, President Obama hasn't fixed the fucked up economy in six months...


we can't beat the media.

we beat the republicans

but we have the same media.

1. It's all the same: The media, Wall Street, Congress (with a couple of exceptions),
and corporations. The fix is still in.

2. Must be the talking point du jour because Ed Schultz brought this up too
and his explanation is that the Repuke governors are using the stim money to help balance their budgets instead of stimulating the economy.

Who to believe? I have no idea but I can't help but wonder if the money "we" pumped into dead zombie banks could have been put to better use elsewhere.

3. The banks have started to pay back the money
so it can still be put to use...
