EVERY SINGLE DAY Ad | Economic Stimulus | American Issues Project
November 182009
The excessive federal spending spree MUST STOP ! ——————— [FEB 2009]
American Issues Projects new ad highlights the failure of the pork-laden stimulus bill
to stimulate the economy.
Washington, DC February 20, 2009 American Issues Project launched a major television advertising campaign today spotlighting the excessive spending and pet projects within the far-reaching stimulus legislation, which the Congressional Budget Office has said will harm the American economy in the long term. The ad will begin running today on FOX News, CNN, CNN Headline News, CNBC and FOX Business Network.
Washington is, once again, out of touch with the American people, said Ed Martin, the organizations president. Congress has used the anxiety of the American people as a vehicle for appeasing special interest groups and financing their pork projects back home. This type of spending has no place within emergency legislation intended to jump-start the economy.
The ad also showcases examples of the billions spent on pork projects—including golf carts, fish hatcheries and remodeled federal offices—and targets liberal senator Charles Schumer for his claim on the Senate floor that the American people really dont care about porky amendments.
American Issues Projects ad examines assertions that the funding in the stimulus package will not help the economy, neither this year nor in the long term, according to economists and the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office.
With this so-called stimulus bill, its the government that will grow, not the economy. The spending circus in Washington must stop before our politicians amass generational debt even further out of our control, said American Issues Project President Ed Martin.
The ad buy of nearly one million dollars starts airing Friday and urges concerned citizens to text ENOUGH to 97180 if they want to join the organization. An electronic version of the ad, plus full documentation for all statements made, is available at American Issues Projects website: http://www.americanissuesproject.org

I bought a “Where’s My Bailout” t-shirt at WallStreetMarketNews(DOT)com
They also have a “Rick Santelli 2012″ t-shirt you can wear at Tea Partys and another t=shirt that says “TOO BIG TO FAIL!”
It’s going to be great to wear these shirts to work on casual Fridays!
Go get your before they stop making them!
This website also has a lot of great information in their Official BLOG.

I’m sorry, but what …
I’m sorry, but what kind of change? I hear from Obama and his supporters, “Change! Change!” Could that be anymore vague? Socially, I’m pretty liberal, so he doesn’t bother me so much there (although FOCA is stepping a bit into the realm of the barbaric). Unfortunately, his economic plans ring of change for the worse. I’m all for change, but damn, we need something real. Obama is good at fluffy speeches, but not so much with substantial plans.

FUCK OBAMA!!!!!!!
OBAMA!!!!!!!

The Republicans have to take a little blame here. Lets hope this wake up call brings back another leader like Newt and a president that we can all live with. Personaly. I like Bobby Jindal.

The myth of the …
The myth of the Bush years is an interesting one. It is proof that if you continue the drumbeat of waht you want people to believe, they will believe it. Your impression of the Bush years is a fabrication. Interesting that the very people who insulted and degraded Bush now say we have to respect this current president. Who says? After all, in only 3 weeks in office, he has way outdone Bush in doing destructive or stupid things. Obama will definitely be the worst president we’ve ever had.

I agree, silverseed. Obama is on a never-ending compaign. Campaigning is what he knows and loves. Pelosi has already laid down the law. Nothing comes from Obama. It’s all Pelosi and Reid.

liberals only hurt the economy and America which is not to say that all democrats are liberal. I love my country and will do anything for it. My parents and grandparents were in the military for most of their lives They helped their country out more than any liberal has , I help MY country by staying out of trouble and not breaking the law with violence, alcohol or drugs. I also help out the country by getting an education so I can be a productive member of society and NOT be on welfare.

the only thing that this ad proves is that utmost human stupidity is not a theoretical possibility but rather a real life fact amongst conservatives. this ad makes me puke. stupidity coupled with ignorance is what gave us the 8 bush years. never again, no more. change is underway, whether u like it or not.

This administration is an abomination with the worst Congress ever.
