As the midterm election season approaches, new road signs are popping up everywhere – millions of dollars worth of signs touting "The American Reinvestment and Recovery Act" and reminding passers-by that the program is "Putting America Back to Work.

True, but very old news. I have been seeing those signs for months. And yep, that money is putting people to work in good paying jobs, fixing stuff that needs fixing. That is something I can get behind.

News being old does not invalidate it. That fact that they are still wasting money on the signs is news.
Democrats have no concept of money math terms. The words million, billion, trillion are all words to them. E.g.: If you take $1,000 bills and stack them up until you have a pile of bills equaling $1,000,000, the stack would be about four inches high. Now take the same $1,000 bills an stack them up to reach a Trillion. How high would the stack be? I'll tell you after some of you guess.

My guess is the height is the same no matter whether it comes in the form of the bailout money Bush proposed - remember the one with zero controls - or in the form of spending to improve the infrastructure. I also guess you wouldn’t know either if you hadn’t read it in some article. And what the hell does it matter how thick a dollar bill is?
Pretty sure Bush couldn't calculate it either. But probably thought the answer could be stated in Brazilians
Where were you when Bush was cutting taxes and increasing spending? Maybe Republicans have no sense of money either?

And no, its not current news because almost every highway construction project I have seen for years now has a big signs touting the governor, etc who was in when it was approved.

Today there is a big sign in Woodinville telling us the name of every city councilman who was in when they decided to fund the project. Old news, totally irrelevant.

If you want to see another example of neither party having any fiscal sense look to the deficit reduction panel proposed by Obama and fought by a handful of Republicans.

Take off the blinders neither party has any sense of fiscal responsibility.

Thank you sir. A little sanity never hurts.

Phoenix is right!

If only Republicans ran this country instead of Democrats... just think of where we'd be?

Ohh wait...

As the democrats asked before the last election--- Are you better off now than you were 4 years ago?

How about asking are you better off now than when we were on the verge of a total fiscal collapse. Banks failing,GM in bankrupcy etc.

Clear answer, hell yes!!!

Republicans new motto, "We fark it all up, then complain if you can't fix it fast enough."

the money spent hiring people to create the signs has hired more people than any republican plan out there.
