cobra bill, I'm not an economist and I've heard that statement you made many times in the past month. Please explain to me exactly how the above statement you made will help us and give me an example of how it has stimulated the economy in the past.

Please educate me.

Thanks[/quote]

Well it's pretty simple, if we spend money to repair infrastructure, that money will go to small businesses who bid on the work, they in turn hire people to do the work, they in turn buy things because they are happily employed, this keeps other people building those things, keeping them employed, and they in turn spend money as well, and so on and so on, there by stimulating the economy.
OK I know there are those small minded people out there that will throughout some distracting childish name calling, and that's fine! if all they can do is call people names and have no ideas of their own, it's no wonder we find ourselves ware we are, we have had 28 years to study reaganomics, and it's an outright failure! trickle up works, not trickle down. and by the way calling me a liberal does not hurt my feelings, I am proud to be a liberal.
it's been 30 years of hate radio that has been spewing out all this rhetoric about the evil liberals, NOT SO, I am an American first and foremost, I volunteered to fight for my country and I have been in service to my country for the last 35 years, and I will always put country first not politics. That said I will be the first to stand up when a group of crazed lunatics take over a political party and subvert the constitution, as shown by the last administration, and yes because of that for the first time in my life I participated in getting someone elected to office, had it been the democratic party involved in the same criminal behavior I would be working for the opposing party to get them elected, it is after all our only recourse as a citizen.
