A new study has confirmed that Obama's "stimulus" spending is disproportionately targeting Democratic districts and being used for partisan constituent payoffs.
The study, conducted by the Mercatus Center at George Mason University in Virginia, found that the porkulus funds have gone to Democrat districts almost twice as often as Republican districts.
Now, as I have noted before, the worst economic disaster areas almost always are run exclusively by Democrats and have been for decades. However, as Mercatus Center scholar Veronique de Rugy explains:
If the stimulus money [were] actually spent to create jobs, there would be more stimulus money spent in high unemployment states...we don't find any correlation.

Hmmm
I suppose this is entirely different than the 8 years under Bush where party hacks were placed in virtually every single key position of government. And this is different than under Bush were tax dollars were spent by the billions to promote republicans and their agenda. Good grief the only point here is that both parties are totally corrupt. And in every single case the American taxpayers as well as the country as a whole get screwed.
So, your big defense for Obama further bankrupting this country under false pretenses (stimulus) to hand out unprecedented pork payoffs to his constituents...is that you don't like the other party?
Nice logic. Way to be objective.
And feel free to offer actual facts and evidence, rather than just vague, unsubstantiated smears about the GOP having "party hacks" and misused funds.
Got something to say?
