Standing athwart history, yelling, “I’m not wearing any pants!”

David Brooks?!? But he’s a squishy moderate…a RiNO even! He only cares aboot being invited to Georgetown cocktail parties! He ate Barack Obama’s lamb chops and is enraptured by hope and change!

Slow your role, all you really cool “movement conservatives.” While there’s no excuse for him calling Sarah Palin a “cancer on the party,” Brooks proved that he hasn’t left us entirely and agrees that the 2009 Fiscal Suicide Act is a bunch of crap that, while being referred to as “stimulus,” really doesn’t do much to stimulate jobs or the economy.

So sayeth Mr. Brooks…

But the stimulus bill emerging in the House of Representatives does neither of these things. The bill marked up Wednesday in the Appropriations Committee is a muddled mixture of short-term stimulus haste and long-term spending commitments. It is an unholy marriage that manages to combine the worst of each approach — rushed short-term planning with expensive long-term fiscal impact.

Then there’s President Obama…

During a morning meeting with congressional leaders from both parties, President Obama acknowledged the philosophical differences between his stimulus package and the Republican plan – but, sources familiar with the conversation said, Obama then noted: “I won.”…

But perhaps taking a cue from Obama’s “I won” line when Democrats were asked if they were concerned about Republicans blocking the package, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid had a swift one-word answer: “No.”

And he’s right, he did win. He won and has the votes in the House and Senate to do anything he feels like. Guess what? That doesn’t mean we have to play along. Yeah the media is going to accuse all republicans of being decisive and against bi-partisanship…because their definition of bi-partisanship is to do whatever the Democrats feel like. And to that, I’ve got two words for the folks at MSNBC and the New York Times, “Eat me.”

Let them say what they want when we, providing our elected officials haven’t completely lost their senses, vote against FSA09. While they say what they want, we can go straight to the voters, one on one, and tell them what the media isn’t.

Leader Boehner has a good idea where to start…

“How you can spend hundreds of millions of dollars on contraceptives – how does that stimulate the economy?”
