Congressman Marsha would like you to know that she voted against the stimulus because that's what she was told to do. But to back it up, she would like to point out some of that good ol' pork in the bill that she'd never support.
Blackburn Votes ‘No’ On Democrat Spending Bill
“There Are No New Jobs In This Bill, No New Ideas, Just New Spending”
“Today many of my Democrat colleagues have argued that the cost of this massive spending bill is less than the cost of doing nothing. If the choice today was between reckless spending or economic doom I might agree, but it isn’t."
Included in the new spending; is $600 million to buy new cars for government workers, $50 million for the National Endowment for the Arts, and $335 million for STD education and prevention.
Translation:
New (hybrid) cars for gov't workers: "I hate Al Gore."
Nat'l Endowment for the Arts: "It's them hippies that like them arts. Hippies and them queer-o-sexuals."
STD education: "What are you talkin 'bout? I thought we only taught abstinence..."
