The democrats got 3 republicansin the senate to bail them out by voting for the so called ” stimulus “ and save Obama’s presidency from a humiliating legislative defeat. Now, somewhere between 3 to 4 million jobs will be either created or saved according to Obama. There’s no way to actualy track this and it really doesn’t matter anyway, because the democrats and president Obama now own the future U.S. economy. If it continues to tank, Obama won’t have former president Bush to blame, he will have to admit he screwed it up. Screwing up is something Barack has been willing to admit to like his selection of Tom Daschle for Health and services secretary.

The general opinion on whether the spending plan will work is split evenly between the liberal left, other delusional dreamers, and people so infatuatedand and enamored by Obama, they will believe anything, so they have total faith it will work and the conservative right, common sense folk, and doomsayers who predict economic disaster from spending so much on government waste. Increasing the national debt as far as the eye can see, borrowing foriegn money we can’t pay back, and printing more of our own deflating it’s value brings the dire possibility of hyper inflation that will make the U.S. dollar almost worthless.

You can afford to spend three dollas, yes you can !

Sources have it that president Obama already has a secret plan that his treasury secretary Timothy Geithner put forth to print a new three dollar bill. Geithner knows the U.S. is still on the hook for another trillion or two to save or bail out the banks, the car industry, forclosures, and anybody else that needs money, so hyperinflation is sure to devalue the regular dollar. The new Obama three dolla bill will replace the dollar’s weak standing in the world and become the new gold standard for currency. If the new bill’s value helps restore and stabalize how the rest of the world views our monetary policies, Geithner has speculated that Obama may consider a Biden seven dollar bill, or a Pelosi thirteen dollar bill in the future if nessecary as well.

Obama and the Democrats are betting the future on spending plan !

With the help of 3 Republicans who broke party ranks to vote for the biggest spending legislation ever proposed by the congress, president Obama and the Democrats appear ready to bet the future on government spending. The final package with amendments and the intrest payments that will be needed to finance this plan, looks to be well over 800 billion in the one trillion plus range. This massive spending plan looks to be a HUGE risk for our country. Even the president himself has proclaimed that catastrophe will follow if either nothing is done, or the plan fails. Republicans have to be wondering what deal, or payoff was offered by the democrats and Obama to get the 3 Republicans to break ranks. Unlike a Vegas casino, the U.S. will not be able to double down if the plan is crap(s). Obama’s political future and the future of the Democratic party will now ride on the plan future success or failure. Alternate, less costly and perhaps more effective stimulus ideas offered by the republicans were spurned with partisan bias. Let’s hope we get lucky and it works, cause otherwise the U.S. may never be the same.

Superbowl XXXXIII concluded in dramatic fashion with Santonio Holmes making a spectacular reception to seal the deal and win the Steelers an unprecedented sixth superbowl victory. A fan could not have asked for a better NFL Sunday ticket to the game. Despite the depressing economic cloud hanging over this event, with sponsors, advertisers, and fans alike cutting budgets and scaling back plans, the game itself had many viewers tuning in and they got their moneies worth as the Phonix cardinals clawed their way back to take the lead by the fourth quarter. NFL TV  was very happy with the market share of the game, which was slightly less than the previous years’ match-up between the unbeaten New England Patriot’s and the New York Giants.

This year’s game provided several highlights and some of it’s own historic accomplishments as well. The Steelers defense made the longest play in superbowl history when a 100 yd interception return resulted in a TD for Harris. Larry Fitzgerald and Curt Warner electrified the game in the second half with two TDs bringing the Cards back into the game. However it was too little too late, leaving some Phoenix fans wondering why the dynamic duo hadn’t hooked up more in the first half. During the regular season and during the Cardinal’s superbowl march, both fans at the games, fans watching on the major networks, and fans using DirectTV NFL Sunday Ticket to gain access to exclusive broadcasts of their favorite teams had come to expect the remarkable from Fitzgerald, who some have already labeled as the best receiver in the game today. It was Santonio Holme’s text book tiptoe reception that stole the show and won the game for the Steelers.

Over all it was a NFL TV Package that delivered. Ben Rothlesburger was the total package, providing critical throws and dodging blitzing Phoenix cardinal linebackers to buy time for receivers to get open. At 27, he is the second youngest QB to win 2 superbowls, so the Steelers future looks solid with him at the helm. The level of competition in the superbowl and the cinderella rise to the big game for the 9-7 Cardinals bodes well for the NFL. Parity seems to be well established with more than 3/4 of the teams in the NFL being legitimate threats to make it to the playoffs and advance to the big game. Attendance at games and fan’s viewership of games is projected to grow despite the dire economic forecasts for the next several years. Direct TV NFL Sunday Ticket is especialy expected to gain more viewership as fans demand to see THEIR team on Sundays.
