GOP Wants Cash for ClunkersFail Because It Helps Mainstreet, USA. Too Late

By GottaLaff



Your Daily Dose of BuzzFlash, via my buddy Mark Karlin:
[T]he "cash for clunkers" program is so popular with Mainstreet Americans that it makes them feel more positive about the national government. My God, it's kind of like a tax break, but coming from the Democrats, but it benefits middle Americans, not just the tiny percentage of super wealthy, and it boosts the economy by increasing production -- not by just tossing 2 trillion dollars into the Wall Street gambling casino that only produces embossed paper shares that have little anchoring real value and gambling debts from the likes of derivatives.

Yes, the "cash for clunkers" additional 2 billion dollars will pass the Senate before adjournment because the horse is out of the barn, and the GOP won't be able to placate enraged potential car buyers with Glenn Beck or Rush Limbaugh "white victim" demagoguery if they filibuster it.

Consumers know a bargain -- and they're glad to get it from their government.

Much more here.

Dee-lish!
