I'd prefer it to be different. But, it looks like we have few choices.

What a stupid comment.

We have plenty of choices. We don't have to commit ourselves to a 600 billion dollar expansion of socialist health care. We don't have to commit ourselves to spending billions to put people on the government dole. We don't have to bail out auto manufacturers -- let them go through Chapter 11 like anybody else and have those god-awful union contracts cut back by the courts.

We don't have to have 9,000 earmarks.

These energy proposals, cap/trade, socialized medicine, all are CHOICE, not essential. HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS of dollars which are not stimulus -- but in fact which are massive social programs.

So, your claim that we have "few choices" is just bullshit, and you know it. These are buying luxuries in a time when the country has no money.

A totally bogus claim on your part.
