Congressman Klein,

“I want them to be the eyes and ears of the stimulus plan.”

Great idea!

How about we have neighborhood committees made up of the more passionate of our citizens to keep an eye on who is lax in their support of the President’s stimulus plan?

Will there be a reward for “dropping a dime”, for “Naming Names”, of laggards, shirkers, stimulus plan deniers, or, Heaven forefend, Trotskyites?

How about spontaneous demonstrations for the plan? Here’s a rallying cry. One plan, one people, one leader. Catchy, isn’t it?

My mother in law was Miss NRA [No, she never owned guns] in Bayonne, N.J. during the Depression. Is it time to bring back the Blue Eagle?

You’ve heard of the Hollywood 10? How about the Pompano Beach 6? Is this the modern American Liberal equivalent of McCarthyism? Can HUAC be far behind? Where’s Lillian Hellman now that we really need her? [Just kidding about Lil. I have been an annual contributor for a 24 hour armed guard around her grave with bayonets facing the coffin lest this Marxist harridan creep out at night and re-infect the Republic.]

Try as I might I can’t find any “shovel ready” projects in Broward County. Maybe there is a reason why Chicago, the ancestral home of the White Envelope, and the breeding grounds of Rahm Emanuel, Rod Blagovevich, Mel Reynolds, a swarm of Daleys, Otto Kerner, and B. Hussein Obama is known as a “can do” city.
