Default The last few days, Obama's travels have been labled

as lecturing. There will continue to be listeners as long as their is a hint of hope what he is selling does come to pass. History as well as the experts (you pick 'em) would attest....to not hold your breath.
That he allowed all the non stimulus pets of the various lawmakers to go forward is a very bad signal from one who purports CHANGE. A golden opportunity missed to signal things will be different. He chose to go with the ongoing modus operendi of an inept process.

The bait and the preaching is for jobs...jobs...jobs. The forecast is to cut the job loss in half by the end of this year. And attain "stability" one year from now. I accept that forecast as nebulous as it is. But where oh where is the forecast of the millions of jobs this new bill is to create? Totally absent. In corporate America (the good old days) when one asked for money a plan was needed reflecting how the deliverable would be attained. Today....WORDS....WORDS....WORDS...no plan. No measurement. Nothing but words.

The feel good rhetoric will not sustain if there is no better forecast than has so far been put forth.....for the now trillions being spent.

If history is correct and repeats itself, what could possibly be the price tag of the next proposal? And how much pork will it include.

CHANGE? Only words!!!.
