"Cabinet hits road to tout stimulus" by Associated Press | April 2, 2009
With President Obama across the pond trying to unify the worldwide response to the economic crisis, his Cabinet hit the road yesterday to trumpet the benefits of the stimulus package he championed back home.

Vice President Joe Biden and Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack traveled to North Carolina to highlight what the Recovery Act is doing to help rural America.
First of, WHAT was the CARBON FOOTPRINT on that P.R. SLOP?!!!!!
See why I'm not taking the fart-misters seriously?
They visited the Goshen Medical Center, a rural health clinic in Faison, which is getting $635,876 in stimulus money, enough to add seven jobs and treat 4,800 more patients, including 1,500 with no health insurance, the White House said.
"Community health centers are at the heart of many of our rural communities," Biden said. "Sometimes, these clinics are the only health facilities for miles and miles."
Then WHY no SINGLE PAYER, UNIVERSAL COVERAGE, Joe?

In Pikeville, N.C., Biden and Vilsack stopped by the rural fire department's main station, which is using stimulus cash to build a firehouse big enough for ladder trucks. They also announced that the Agriculture Department has begun disbursing the first installment of $10 billion in guaranteed housing loans. About $1.76 billion, including $37.2 million for Massachusetts, will help 15,000 rural families and create or save about 7,500 jobs, the White House said.
Yeah, yeah, promises, promises. How can they even know that?
Just a number they throw out.
Also starting this week, most employees will see a $10 bump in their paychecks as the $400-per-worker, $800-per-couple tax credit kicks in from the stimulus package.
Yup, a CHUMP CHANGE BRIBE with YOUR OWN MONEY as they GIVE AWAY TRILLIONS to BANKS and WAR-LOOTERS!!!
Individuals making up to $75,000 a year, and couples making less than $150,000, are eligible for the full credit, which phases out at a $95,000 income for individuals and $190,000 for couples. The credit expires after 2010, but Obama has proposed making it permanent.
And it is a ONE-TIME BRIBE, too!!!
Senators John F. Kerry and Edward M. Kennedy said that the tax credit means $1.2 billion for 2.4 million working families in Massachusetts.
Yeah, you guys are doing such great work for us all!
