H.R. 5140, the Economic Stimulus Act of 2008, passed 385-35 on January 29, 2008 (Roll Call 25). It would provide about $150 billion in economic stimulus, including $101.1 billion in direct payments of rebate checks (typically $600) to most taxpayers in 2008 and temporary tax breaks for businesses. Creating money out of thin air and then spending the newly created money cannot improve the economy, at least not in the long term. (If it could, why not create even more money for rebates and make every American a millionaire?) The stimulus has no offset and thus increases the federal deficit by the amount of the stimulus because the government must borrow the rebate money. A realistic long-term stimulus can only be achieved by lowering taxes through less government and by reducing regulatory burdens.Marsha Blackburn voted FOR this bill.(Source: The New American – July 21, 2008) Marsha Blackburn is my Congressman.

They lost because the Republican Party was not sure what it believed in or afraid to admit what they believe in. Our cultural obsession with tolerance! The truth always divides as it must. Hence the Party needs to find what it believes and stand for it without excuse. Their base knows what they believe....it would be great to find the Grand 'Ole Party not ashamed to articulate it.
