$900 BILLION --- AND COUNTING

The vote in the House is today. Get that? Today! Why? Because these people are thieves. They're stealing your children's future. There rummaging around your living room in the middle of the night stealing much of that stuff you've worked for .. and stealing the future you've been trying to make for your children .. and they're scared to death that you'll wake up before they get away. They're pushing for a vote on their Democrat spending plan before the American people actually figure out what they're up to.

How many times over the past year did I explain this to you? Democrats - and this goes double for President Obama - think that America is great. Some of us have a different idea. We might think that America is great because of the dynamic of free, self-sufficient people working together in an economic system based on liberty and the rule of law.

Now I want you to think about something for a moment. Think about all that you've heard about what the Democrats are calling an "economic stimulus plan." How easy is it for you to remember the parts of this plan that grow government? Now .. .try to remember a part of the plan that grows the private sector. For the most part this is about government jobs and the growth of the government's power and share of our economy. There are some dollars thrown at private sector elements -- but for some reason these are private sector elements and non-profit groups friendly to Democrats. Millions for Hollywood. Millions for the Arts. Millions for ACORN. Yes .. I said millions for ACORN. We even had millions of dollars in there for condoms and AstroGlide before talk radio got a hold of that one. (OK, I'm not sure about the AstroGlide .. but you don't want people to hurt themselves, do you?) Yeah .. these things are going to grow our economy big time. Take a look at this story from today's USA Today. "Some of President Obama's favorite proposals won't make a difference for years." Well, if it won't make a difference for years, then it's not stimulus, now is it? It's just the Democrat agenda being forced through in an atmosphere of panic by calling it an economic recovery plan.

This grandiose Democrat spending plan is not going to stimulate our economy. It is, however, going to fulfill decades of Democrat dreams and schemes. It will make government more powerful. It will weaken the private sector. It will insure the reelection of Democrat officeholders for years to come. It will inevitably lead to massive tax cuts which will harm, if not destroy, American private sector productivity. It will absolutely change the way your children and grand children live their lives. It will rob them of opportunity and lock them into a life of mediocrity in service to the all-powerful Imperial Federal Government of the United States.

Quick ... get that vote done today before someone actually wakes up!
