"Bush says 1st rebates going out Monday"
"by Tom Raum, Associated Press | April 26, 2008
WASHINGTON - President Bush said tax rebates will start going out Monday, earlier than previously thought, and should help Americans cope with rising gasoline and food prices, as well as aid the economy.
$600 dollars ain't gonna make a dent, shitter!
So let me get this straight: I am giving myself a rebate (all tax dollars) so I cab hand it over to oil companies that make $40 billion in yearly profits?
Pffffffftttt!
Democrats said they were glad the rebate checks were about to go out, but suggested that multinational oil companies were not among the businesses the stimulus package was originally designed to help.
Somehow, it just works out that way!
Pfffffffttt!
"Starting Monday, the effects of the stimulus will begin to reach millions of households across our country," Bush said yesterday in remarks on the South Lawn of the White House.
So why couldn't this have been done this LAST WEEK?
Those first rebates will be directly deposited into people's bank accounts. The Internal Revenue Service had been saying direct deposits wouldn't start until next Friday. Bush said paper checks would begin going out on May 9, a week earlier than previously scheduled.
WTF?!? Why did we have to wait so long?
How come war looters and everyone else get their money right away, and the American people have to wait to receive THEIR MONEY?
"The money is going to help Americans offset the high prices we're seeing at the gas pump, the grocery store, and also give our economy a boost to help us pull out of this economic slowdown," Bush said.
Yup, a STIMULUS for BILL-COLLECTORS and OIL COMPANIES!
Maybe you could drink that gallon of gas to wash the taste of shit out your mouth, 'eh, 'murkn?!
Maybe if we weren't spending BILLIONS a WEEK in IRAQ!
Bush's emphasis on fuel and food prices differed from other comments he's made since signing the economic stimulus legislation, intended to aid the economy by boosting overall consumer spending - which accounts for roughly two-thirds of the nation's economic activity.
Bush has suggested the rebates could trigger a spending spree.
By saying expressly that people could use these checks to pay for such necessities as food and gas, Bush underscored the deepening challenges facing the economy.
Yeah, like he is some sort straight-talker!
God, does AmeriKa's Zionist MSM suck!!!!!!
Democrats were quick to pick up on the change of focus.
"It's galling to think that taxpayers' stimulus checks will be lining the pockets of OPEC. The sad truth is that the average American family will spend almost their entire stimulus check on higher gas prices this year," said Senator Charles Schumer, Democrat of New York, chairman of the Joint Economic Committee of Congress.
"Unless the administration gets OPEC to increase oil supply, American consumers are going to be in for a scorching summer of $4 gasoline with no relief in sight," Schumer said.
One more time, Chuck: The SUPPLY has NOTHING to do with it!
It is the CRATERING DOLLAR that is making PRICES RISE!
Demand in America is DOWN!!!
Just read my business labels!!!
Oh, and buy the way, it ALREADY is at $4, turd!!!
"Gas prices hit $4 per gallon on Vineyard
Fears of $4-per-gallon of gas have become reality on Martha's Vineyard. An informal survey of island gas stations by WMVY-FM found an average price of $4 per gallon for regular unleaded. Many small businesses are being forced to absorb the higher costs or pass them on to customers. The most recent statewide survey by AAA Southern New England found a record high average price of $3.38 per gallon for self-serve regular (AP)."
Chuck?
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Democrat of California, agreed that people "need this rebate to cope with the rising cost of gas and groceries."
Actually, rather than hand it to the price-gouging oil companies, I thought I'd just get drunk and buy some drugs!
Wanna come over, readers?
:-)
She said that, while the rebates would help to get the economy moving, there was a need for a second stimulus package "and we have begun some conversation with the administration and Republicans."
How much fucking money do they think they have, and HOW MANY TAX BREAKS for RACE HORSES are going to be in THAT BILL?
And how does that bowl of shit taste, 'murkn?!
As he did earlier in the week, Bush used the word "slowdown" to describe the state of the economy. He has denied that the nation is in a recession, although many economists say it is.
"It's obvious our economy is in a slowdown. But, fortunately, we recognized the signs early and took action," Bush said.
ANOTHER LIE!!!!
CHUMP CHANGE!!!!
Where's my BILLIONS like the BANKS, ISRAEL and WAR LOOTERS get?!
