" Republicans have caught the Democrats in a midnight “stimulus” power
play that seeks to cut Republican conferees out of the House-Senate
negotiations to resolve a final version of the Obama “stimulus”
package. Staff members from the offices of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi
(D-Calif.) and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) met last
night to put together the “stimulus” conference report.

They intend to attempt to shove this $1.3 trillion spending bill
through in the dead of the night without Republican input so floor
action can take place in both chambers on Thursday.

I spoke with House Republican Conference Chairman Mike Pence (R-Ind.)
moments ago about this latest version of Democratic “bipartisanship.”
Pence told me, “I think the American people deserve to know that
legislation that would comprise an amount equal to the entire
discretionary budget of the United States of America is being crafted
without a single House Republican in the room.”


Some Republicans reportedly were in the late-night conference. But --
at least from the Senate -- the official Republican conferees were
excluded. HUMAN EVENTS has received e-mail confirmations from the
staffs of both Sens. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) and John Thune (R-S.D.)
saying that they had no participation in the conference "

" The Obama-Biden Plan "
Barack Obama has led efforts to reform government both
in the Illinois State Senate and in the United States Senate.
He will bring this commitment to making government work for
the people, not the special interests, to the White House.
Obama will ensure Washington works for the people, not
the special interests.


I can see how everyone will recoil in horror at such a plan. Best they keep
it a secret, huh??

I am not in favor of the stated economic policies -- and few of the
social policies -- of the Obama administration.
He is, however our president -- yours and mine.
I will continue to act through legitimate political venues to run and
elect candidates whom I trust to do what I can only try to determine
is best.

In so doing, I run across people like this. Drooling, semi-literate,
examples of what is the worst among us. They make us all look bad, as
the opposition gladly seizes upon them as representative of what they
see as loonies, just as the New York media seizes on a gap-toothed,
cammo-clad Bubba to be representative of the NRA.

[ pause, while the lesser of those among us make much of that ]

That someone allowed to run around loose in society can openly
advocate the assassination of the president, is beyond my
understanding. He has removed himself from civil society and
disgraced whatever military he claims to have belonged to. I only
hope the NSA has flags on his postings.

I (almost) never killfile people........till now.

plonk

cheers

LONDON (AP) - World stock markets fell Thursday amid pessimism about
the Obama administration's plans to fix the U.S. banking system and
restore the overall health of the world's largest economy. European
stocks were also undermined by a raft of disappointing earnings.

The FTSE 100 index of leading British shares fell 58.82 points, or 1.4
percent, to 4,175.44, while Germany's DAX declined 96.81 points, or
2.1 percent, to 4,433.28. The CAC-40 in France was 45.08 points, or
1.5 percent, lower at 2,982.64.

Sentiment in Europe, already depressed by further losses in Asia
earlier, was hit by the news that a number of companies across the
continent reported worse than expected earnings and predicted further
difficulties for the months ahead.

In Britain, drinks maker Diageo warned that its profits for the 2008-9
fiscal year would be lower than previously anticipated because of the
global economic slowdown, while BT PLC, the telecommunications
company, issued its fourth profit warning in the space of just six
months as a result of further one-off charges.

During his campaign, President Obama's advisers promised an economic
stimulus that would be "timely, targeted and temporary." It sounded
pretty good. But now congressional Democrats are pushing something
very different.

The legislation written by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and House
Speaker Nancy Pelosi is shortsighted, with potentially harmful long-
term ramifications. What was supposed to be an immediate boost to our
economy has morphed into yet another overreaching spending boondoggle.
There's no place for things like $45 million for ATV trails and
government office renovations. Yet, that's precisely the sort of
unnecessary spending that Reid and Pelosi are pushing.

Perhaps that's why polls show most Americans want major changes to the
stimulus bill moving through Congress. The Republican Party is
listening, and ready to work with President Obama to craft legislation
that would immediately create jobs.

We should first agree that with so many taxpayers struggling to pay
their own bills, every dollar must help job creation. Republicans
offered ideas to focus the stimulus directly on creating jobs and
helping homeowners, but the Democrat leaders in Congress preferred the
top-down big government approach.

In his news conference this week, the president was selling fast and
hard. He clearly senses that the American people have had enough of
these trillion-dollar spending sprees. As the loyal opposition,
Republicans have a responsibility to call him out when he errs, and
work with him when he is right.

In that spirit, let's recognize the Democrats' spending bill is a
mistake. If you like government dependence, you will love the Reid-
Pelosi plan that they are jamming through Congress.

hussein keeps the markets in turmoil.......that's some leadership
there......


Stocks tumbled to late November levels Thursday, led by banks, as
investors worried the stimulus plan wouldn't be enough to help the
economy.


Major U.S.
Indexes.DJIA7841.97-97.56-1.23%606,985,000.NCOMP1530.750.25+0.02%437,398,500 .SPX825.0-8.74-1.05%2,075,727,700

The first rise in retail sales in seven months had buoyed futures but
traders shrugged it off as regular trading got underway, sending the
Dow Jones Industrial Average down more than 150 points. The blue-chip
index was trading below 7,800, a level it hasn't seen since Nov. 21.

The market got a mild bounce Wednesday from news that the Senate had
agreed on a stimulus plan but Wall Street wasn't convinced of the
plan's ability to jump-start the economy.

Financials including Bank of America [BAC 5.69 -0.38
(-6.26%) ], Citigroup [C 3.53 -0.16 (-4.34%) ], American
Express [AXP 15.64 -0.72 (-4.4%) ] and JPMorgan [JPM 24.95
-1.14 (-4.37%) ] were the biggest drag on the Dow as this so-called
"stress test" for banks stressed out investors worried about stock
dilution.

After U.S. bank bailouts had disastrous effects for shareholders,
shareholders of Belgian bank Fortis staged a rare revolt against the
government's bailout plans, rejecting the proposed $20 billion sale of
the bank to France's BNP Paribas. Fortis, which was taken over by the
government in October, is widely held by Belgian citizens, the Wall
Street Journal reported this morning.
