THE RECESSION IS OVER–DIDN’T YOU KNOW?

The Whitehouse is now occupied by an eco-idiot. An eco-idiot is twice cursed. An eco-idiot knows nothing about ecology nor anything about the economy.

As part of his effort to “create manufacturing jobs for folks who are making cars,” President Obama announced yesterday that he will be accelerating plans to use $285 million from the stimulus bill to buy 17,600 new cars for government workers.

The news was welcomed on a number of fronts:

First, the impact this will have on the domestic automobile industry and the hard working families who depend on it cannot be overstated as it can take, at current sales levels, more than half a day to sell 17,600 cars.

But that’s not all! Just think how much these 17,600 cars will help with global warming. Many of them will be hybrids. Hybrids are very helpful. When the batteries wear out, they make excellent toxic material to place in our landfills.

Just think! You will have helped keep automakers in business for an extra day. After all, it’s your money–or is it your grandkids money? They may be the ones paying for this.

Where will the money come from? Just another digital entry on a FED computer. It’s not real. The dollar will have been devalued by another $285 billion, but that’s peanuts compared with the $70 trillion or so that can never be repaid–even by your great, great, great, great grandchildren.
