<div><p> The latest release of stimulus jobs numbers has set off the</p><p>expected partisan nonsense. Democrats are gushing about how</p><p>the stimulus is working, and Republicans continue to question its</p><p>effi cacy. ItÕs not surprising that the Obama administration and its supporters would</p><p>boast of the job creation, even though the recovery is being described as ÒjoblessÓ in</p><p>many circles. But what is most sick about this colloquy is how you</p><p>almost get the sense the Republicans want the economy to stay</p><p>tanked so they can use it as a political issue. When was the last</p><p>time I felt this way? Oh, yes. When Democrats almost seemed as if they wanted the</p><p>economy to stay tanked during the 2008 presidential race. Statesmen all. </p><p></p><img src="http://admatch-syndication.mochila.com/images/ad.gif?aid=62647390&bid=informcom" /></div><div id="copyright"><div>
