It's bad.

Ok, so the Republicans are playing politics. I don't know if they are insane, ignorant, or assholes. I think they are probably all three. However, and I'm not going to link to places, but they aren't hard to find they do have a couple of common anti-stimulus arguments. One of them, if you look around you'll see Republicans arguing that well, you know, we're in a recession but what about these other recessions? 1990? 2001? We didn't need a Billion stimulus then, we'll be fine!

Well, take a look at this chart. We're the green line. That's the one doing the Titanic impersonation.  Basically, we are really fucked if something is not done soon. We're probably fucked anyway, but let's all be positive. Like, maybe a meteorite will strike the senate chamber and only kill the Republicans and we can get this fucking thing passed. Yep.

Anyway...
