NOW REPUBLICANS WANT STIMULUS MONEY? WTF?

A nice young Republican researcher from conservative hot-bed George Mason University sent this to me - apparently, "Democratic areas" are getting more stimulus money than Republican voting districts - and the money, as such, isn't going to the places with the highest unemployment.


Oddly enough, it seems to us that people like Governors Sanford, Palin and Perry all screamed and cried about the stimulus money, and swore up and down they wouldn't take any. We'd love to see the unemployment figures in each of those states - much of the stimulus money that was rejected was for extending unemployment benefits. We can see where that contradicts the conservative mantra about making people "get off welfare" - removing their support so they somehow feel motivated to discover employment. We also wouldn't trust anything sent us by anyone at Mason or Mercatus - pretty biased research, we'd say. And funny as well - keep on trying, folks, keep on trying.

We're pretty sure you won't find many "facts" but instead, a lot of "spin."
