If only Bush could have stayed on for a few more months…

… we might have been spared from ever hearing another shit song from Cher:

So let’s say that in 4 years it’s turned out that Obama’s stimulus plan worked

Posted by bruni on March 26, 2009

The stimulus bill put people back to work and our economy is on its feet again. We are once again the leading economic power in the world, there’s a surplus paying the (large)debt down, and quality of life is similar to that of the Clinton years.

U.S. Congressman tells what really happened in September

Posted by bruni on March 22, 2009

(you can skip to about the 2:10 mark to hear the most important part)

$550 billion was taken out of the system in an "electronic run on the banks," and it would have been over $5.5 trillion if they hadn’t closen the accounts and insured each person with $250 thousand.

If would have led to a collapse of the U.S. economy by 2:00pm that very day and a collapse of the world economy within 24 hours, if they hadn’t done that. It would have been "the end of our economic system and our political system as we know it."
