Annoying logic: McCain just stood up and complained that parts of the stimulus package had nothing to do with stimulus

Posted by Max Feb 5 '09, 10:10

but said, "We should spend money on that, it just shouldn't be part of this package" and then went ahead and took the package total and divided it up by the number of estimated new jobs to complain that the spending per job was too high. [and then, 30 seconds later..."I notice there's not one penny for military spending in this bill. We need to spend money on the military." 30 seconds later..."We're on a spending spree that needs to stop."]

Hey, if you look at all government spending this year and divide that by number of new jobs, that's way high too!
