Use this chart in your emails or Facebook and piss off a few Repukes...

Let’s “do something”, shall we?

1. this is why...

repubs are against it...party before country! :-(

[IndyPragmatist]

2. These projections mean nothing

Remember the projections before the stimulus? They were WAY off.

[Broderick]

3. I can make pretty charts out of whole cloth too

[IndyPragmatist]

Look at my chart

Let us have pie!

[Indydem]

5. THERE ARE ONLY 15 PIES IN 2011???

I GOTTA GO GET ONE RIGHT NOW!

[IndyPragmatist]

7. It's a recession, we must ration our pies

But come next year, PIE FOR EVERYONE!

[Broderick]

8. There is only one kind of pie reflected in that chart I presume

And that would be apple.

[Indydem]

4. I'll tell you what.

Instead of giving another 400 BILLION dollars to the assholes who created this mess, why don't we give $3500 tax free to the 112,611,029 households in America and see what happens?

[Broderick]

9. This is precisely why this Jobs bill is another bilking in my opinion

Trickle down economics and stimulus DOES NOT WORK.


but we do it over and over and over and over and over and over again.

300K per job they say????

You are right - send the money out to every household.

11. I suggested something like this and was accused of wanting Hyper-inflation.

:shrug:

6. I'll take an 8.3 any day of the week - it's a good start

And the GOP knows if Obama got to 8.3 they would be toast in Nov 2012

[Romulox]

10. Problem: they released similar charts during the "stimulus" debate, and they didn't pan out.

:shrug:
