In the Liberal Zone, there are priorities. These priorities are sometimes strange and twisted, but what else would you expect from the libs? The messiah SPENDULUS MAXIMUS talked about the Porkulus being for “vital infrastruture.” He talked about transparency and accountability. What have we gotten in exchange for those words? A FREAKIN SKATE PARK!!!! Yes folks, the “vital infrastructure” that we all heard so much about includes the following…
In this city burdened with one of Rhode Island’s highest home foreclosure rates and a $10-million current-year budget deficit, $550,000 in federal stimulus money is coming to build a skateboarding park and renovate tennis and basketball courts at Jenks Junior High School.
Pawtucket, which for the budget year ending June 30 is facing a projected $5.2-million school budget deficit and about a $4.8- million hole on the municipal side, has cut about 40 city jobs this year.
Now my friends, the messiah SPENDULUS MAXIMUS suggests that we must spend federal Porkulus money on “critical” items such as education. Apparently, skate parks and basketball courts are vital? How many kiddos in this district need books? What is the drop out rate? What is the illiteracy rate? It bad enough that the federal government has no Constitutional authority to have ANYTHING to do with public education (thank you long forgotten 10th Amendment), but we have to spend freshly minted debt on a SKATE PARK? With the following results…
Remember, dear reader, that the libs always have rationalizations and excuses for their idiotic spending. Let’s see if we can generate some for them. As a public service to the libs, we will set the CALL IT SOMETHING ELSE Translation Matrix in reverse, and create liberal rationalizations for the “vital” and “critical” skate park.
Working……
“The concrete involved in the construction will reflect sunlight back into space, thereby reducing global warming.”
“The skate park is a secret concentration camp for emo kids.”
“The basketball court will keep kids off the streets and away from crime.” Comment: The crimes will be committed AT the basketball court instead!
“At least Joe the Plumber won’t get any of the Porkulus money.”
“Conservatives are evil and hate children.”
“Conservatives just want the kids to die!”
“It’s Rush Limbaugh’s fault!”
The messiah SPENDULUS MAXIMUS talks about “transparency.” He’s right there. We can see right through this BS!!

I believe that future generations should have the same opportunities that myself, and those that came before me, had. My parents taught me that I could do anything I wanted to do. I don’t want to have to tell my daughter, “You can do whatever the government tells you to do.” We are at a crossroads in this country; are we going to be free, or are we going to be slaves to the nanny state. I choose freedom.
cant believe we spent a trillion dollars on pork, now thats a soft tyranny
It’s more than just pork. I mean, this example is just wasteful, but how many strings are being attached to the Porkulus money? Definitely tyranny
