Replace Toilet Paper With the Stimulus Package

President Obama came to Denver to sign the stimulus package yesterday, but if the truth be known, he could have taken those 1,000 sheets of paper and put them on Air Force 1 to use as toilet paper as far as I am concerned. I can't believe I've remained silent on the way our government is spending our tax dollars. Greed in America is really alive and I trust few people in government at this point. President Obama talks of "saving or creating" 3M jobs...is it saving or is it creating? I'm confused because 800B would give hundreds of thousands more jobs than just 3M people. Help me understand the law of this land. Our banks are getting bailouts and loan sharking at the same time by charging interest rates as high as 29% for many people. How the hell are people going to pay their bills off with interest rates that high? I'm not blaming President Obama for trying to fix the mess that George Bush and the republicans created, but let's face it, corporate America is greedy and while Eric Holder had the nerve to call us a "Nation of Cowards" I believe we are "too trusting." I hope every military member on active duty invites Eric Holder to the front lines in Iraq and Afghanistan -- let's see who would be the coward! Put your "Trust not in our government of fools -- nor the "mighty dollar" but rather trust yourselves and keep a close watch on the people who claim to care and don't." Our politicians, republicans and democrats have let us, the American people down. The only way to get their attention is to vote all of them out of office when given the opportunity to do so. Can I get some of that stimulus package for my bathroom now?
