I think you're both right. Except for the extra-constitutional part maybe, depending on what Tim is talking about, but he doesn't feel like arguing right now and neither do I.
I haven't looked at the link to truth check it, gotta go right now. But, um... Gitmo -- wasn't that a Congress problem? Some bogus thing about these being the worst of the worst and there's no American jail secure enough to hold them so we refuse to fund moving the detainees. Or something like that. Maybe it was that national security was going to be compromised if they testified they were waterboarded. Who knows. Maybe all of the above. Obama can't do *everything* by fiat you know, very little actually, and Jerry already claims he's a fascist. The stimulus was pure Keynes and would have worked if it had been funded. IMHO. We don't have to argue about this. D On Thu, May 17, 2012 at 6:56 AM, Larry C. Lyons <larrycly...@gmail.com>wrote: > > Of course you could look at what he was given to work with.
