What in the names of our sons and daughters and the futures of our grandkids can we do about it?

We have a President who was so inside this extortion deal that he appointed people from the same inner circle of miscreants to head up Treasury and The Fed. The results now being that huge piles of money are greasing the inner workings of every Agency that handles dough - with little of it ending up inside the pockets of state agencies, or people on Main Street.

And as early as Nov '08 Obama tipped off the Powers that Be that it would be so -- when on 'Sixty Minutes,' he said "Hank is working hard." (Obama's very first "Good job there, Brownie" moment.)

As a nation we are so screwn.

Obama is in for eight years - at best we will see a faux election between him and Palin in 2012.

Meanwhile massive amounts of money, offered supposedly for things like transit projects and highway assisatance, cannot be touched by individual states, as state constitutions decree that projects cannot be undertaken unless/until the state has some real assurance that the projects will be completed.

Notice yesterday's hearings re: the Highway and Transit funds - DeFazio of Oregon questions Rogoff while trying to figure out how he can get Oregon some very needed money for projects that will require three to five years of funding - yet the monies available will only last eighteen months. (Oregon's state constitiution is one of those that will not allow for projects to be undertaken unless they can be completed.)

Obama's supposed economic recovery is a big sack of lies and Catch 22 promises.
