Robert Reich on his NPR show stated that for every dollar the federal government spends (in federal programs) it returns a dollar fifty. Stunning!
It seems that we have returned to the age of the big lie, the whopper. This is a statement by a politician so impossible that the audience must stop breathing and try to rationalize any truth in the matter. Bill Clinton mastered that tact and his protege BHO is learning fast. At his press conference he stated that there was “No Pork” in the stimulus package.
Stay tuned for more doubt your sanity moments as Reich returns more to center stage and the era of “change you’re never going to believe” continues. “To the victor goes the spoils” is the oldie but goodie rule of politics that is not going to change. Amazingly in times of a great national and international crisis the polematic politician sounds the trumpet of further division from reality or even unity.
