Quote Of The Day
Will Wilkinson, on the Democrat [and media’s] spin regarding the stimulus package:
It’s Porkulus or starvation, nation. Choose sides carefully.
The statists have honestly succeeded in framing the debate this way. Thus, those of us who are against the stimulus are accused of being willing to wreck the economy rather than engage in a little deficit spending. Protestations of distrust in the efficacy of the stimulus, or even arguments that it’ll make the problem worse, are unheeded. The left says it’s this stimulus or it’s economic depression, and we’ve let them get away with that characterization.
