New Blog: The Right is Wrong

I wanted to change the name of this blog to more clearly reflect my point of view.  Since the software didn't permit this, I started another one:
http://therightissowrong.blogspot.com/
All the entries on this blog has been transferred to the new location.  I'm working on restoring the various widgets to the new blog.  In the mean time, I'll continue to post in both locations.
Hope to see you there soon.

Sharron Angle: The Choice Candidate

John Kyl sees Nothing, Nothing

When is a deficit hawk, not a deficit hawk?  When he thinks his political interests are in conflict with his professed economic philosophy. Case in point, John Kyl.  He has opposed the bill extending unemployment insurance on the grounds that it would increase the deficit.  But Republicans are on a roll with wealthy campaign contributors and what politician in his right mind would want to stop the cash from flowing in?  Even for the good of his country.

Never mind that paying people the meager amount they need to keep food on the table and a roof overhead for their families while they look for work acts as a stimulant to the economy.  Because unlike the rich who have more than they need, the unemployed spend their checks immediately.  The wealthy aren't putting their surplus money into circulation, so it doesn't help our economy's recovery.  It makes no sense to extend the very tax cuts were one of the factors that lead to our current budget shortfall.
