"Buy a flat screen, save America"
Once I get past his heavy hand on immigration, I really like this short speech by Rep. John Campbell (R-Calif.), who argues that the bipartisan rebate plan sends the wrong message to Americans. As he notes, we got into this mess by spending too much, and now the government (which is the master of overspending) says, "Here's some more money -- please spend it on consumer goods because we'll be in trouble if you stop spending." Meanwhile, that meddling and treacherous Suze Orman has been been begging Joe Sixpack to put his rebate toward his already considerable personal debt, which may get her shipped off to Guantanamo soon.
