Actually, when the Ideas and proposals of Obama and the Dems in Congress are harmful to this country, as numerous people, including the Congressional Budget Office, have said this falsely-named "stimulus bill" will be, then if Obama fails, we all win.

Washington Times - CBO: Obama stimulus harmful over long haul

CBO: Obama stimulus harmful over long haul

Wednesday, February 4, 2009

President Obama's economic recovery package will actually hurt the economy more in the long run than if he were to do nothing, the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office said Wednesday.

CBO, the official scorekeepers for legislation, said the House and Senate bills will help in the short term but result in so much government debt that within a few years they would crowd out private investment, actually leading to a lower Gross Domestic Product over the next 10 years than if the government had done nothing.

CBO estimates that by 2019 the Senate legislation would reduce GDP by 0.1 percent to 0.3 percent on net. [The House bill] would have similar long-run effects, CBO said in a letter to Sen. Judd Gregg, New Hampshire Republican, who was tapped by Mr. Obama on Tuesday to be Commerce Secretary.

The House last week passed a bill totaling about $820 billion while the Senate is working on a proposal reaching about $900 billion in spending increases and tax cuts.

But Republicans and some moderate Democrats have balked at the size of the bill and at some of the spending items included in it, arguing they won't produce immediate jobs, which is the stated goal of the bill.

The budget office had previously estimated service the debt due to the new spending could add hundreds of millions of dollars to the cost of the bill -- forcing the crowd-out.

CBOs basic assumption is that, in the long run, each dollar of additional debt crowds out about a third of a dollars worth of private domestic capital, CBO said in its letter.

CBO said there is no crowding out in the short term, so the plan would succeed in boosting growth in 2009 and 2010.

The agency projected the Senate bill would produce between 1.4 percent and 4.1 percent higher growth in 2009 than if there was no action. For 2010, the plan would boost growth by 1.2 percent to 3.6 percent.

CBO did project the bill would create jobs, though by 2011 the effects would be minuscule.

Obviously a poor choice of editorial cartoons, but I am sure the racist intonations were not intended. Obama didn't write the stimulus bill, members of Congress did, which is surely who they referencing.

I'm alittle curious

so Obama only signs the bill, he does contribute in constructing what the bill states with the rest of congress?

Bottom line:

Even if this was a reference to the "monkeys of congress" and not Obama, anyone in there right mind would make that connection- especially a clever cartoonist.
