2nd Stimulus? Let's repeal the first one!

President Obama told a press conference today that a second stimulus wasn't needed yet because the results of the first were not clear. I beg to differ. The promise was that the rushed stimulus was needed to avoid job losses reaching percent. Congress passsed the stimulus and we blew past that mark heading toward 10%.

Maybe this country needs the debate we didn't have with the first stiumulus. Step 1, repeal the first stimulus. Step 2, discuss what if anythign REALLY needs to be done to stimulate the economy. Step 3, pass the legislation that should have been passed the first time but couldn't get past the congressional porkfest. And the beauty of this orginal stimulus is that since it was never intended to stimulate anything, most of the spending is back loaded. There is still time to correct this if the people would make more noise about it.
