Third Stimulus on the Table to Help Laid Off Workers?
Considering that Obama claims he hasn’t blown the entire wad of Stinkulus dollars, I fail to see why his administration is even remotely considering robbing the American Tax Payers yet again. Wasn’t Stinkulus suppose to “save existing jobs and create new ones?” And, since there is supposedly tons of American Tax Payer money from Stinkulus that is still unspent, why are they not looking at that for unemployment relief? Gee, I sure am glad Obama has surrounded himself with such intelligent, financial geniuses, else one might be forced to conclude that the Obama administration is run by a bunch of monkeys.
UPDATE: Uh, I just noticed that my last statement might be considered racist by the freakin’ Libtards. Let the charges of racism fly, fools. I’m part black and don’t give a crap about your petty little PC word games.
Administration eyes ways to help laid-off workers
By CHARLES BABINGTON, AP
WASHINGTON – The Obama administration is considering steps to ease the burdens of laid-off workers, including possible extensions of unemployment and health benefits, officials said Saturday.
The administration has stopped short of calling for a second economic stimulus package to augment the $787 billion measure approved this year. But with the jobless rate continuing to climb, President Barack Obama said Saturday he is exploring “additional options to promote job creation.”

But they can’t spend any of the Stinkulus on the economy! How would they pay for election-fixing?

That’s easy, they will come up with a new tax, just like they always do.

I wouldn’t worry about the “racist” crap but you are going to have a bunch of pissed off monkeys thinking you are comparing them to the slime libs.

Tuh-huh. No doubt!
(BTW-That “tuh-huh” was my attempt at expressing the sound of the partial laughter that escaped first off the tip of my tongue, followed by a short burst of air while reading your witty remarks).

Why is it that I must go to the international news media to get news of the US? I have just read that 3 more banks have failed, bringing the total banks failures for the year to 98. The only good news of slow shift of opinion about Obambi, SNL just had a skit about his accomplishments since taking office, namely zero.

ciccio,
Foreign papers do a pretty good job. Sad when we read pravda because it’s more reliable that our media. For excellent and accurate economic news and analysis try http://market-ticker.denninger.net/
Also, lewrockwell.com has a lot of economics news. Today’s more depressing selections include:
Stock Market Collapse Dead Ahead
Entering the Greatest Depression in History
Whatever you do, don’t listen to any of the state run media! They are sucking people back into the market and into spending when they should save and pay down debt. A lot of folks who fall for it are going to lose what little they have left. The next crash is coming and soon. If you have money in stocks, get it out. Bad things are going to happen and October is not traditionally a good month for markets. Especially when there are hundreds of container ships moored in the South Pacific. They should be full and busy this time of year.

Is it coincidental that they are pushing for mor money to help those laid off at the same time that ACORN is discussing laying off large numbers of workers?
Side note: I have an on going struggle with my new puppy, trying to get him to understand what is acceptable for him to chew on. His new fetish is the ACORNS scattered under our trees. I thought I should put up a warning sign:
“Enter at your own risk. My dog likes to attack nuts and ACORNS are his favorite”
