The President’s spokesperson informed us today that the President will have no new ideas in his speech tonight. That’s unfortunate. Mr. President: Our country is in grave economic trouble. We have a housing finance meltdown going on while energy costs spiral up and down. Affordable and accessible healthcare is out of reach to almost 50 million Americans with 6 million alone added during this President’s tenure. Our educational system has left far too many children behind, while our bridges are literally falling down in America.

Mr. President: our country needs an economic stimulus package that will result in something more than pocket change for most working families.

Mr. President: The best American economic stimulus package you could offer the American public is to end this war in Iraq.

We are currently spending $10 Billion a month in Iraq, more than $2.5 Billion a week.
