Boehner Says Biden Is Lying About The Stimulus

Politico:

Vice President Joe Biden is invading House Minority Leader John Boehner’s back yard tomorrow to tout the success of the stimulus package, but Boehner is redoubling his attacks, accusing the vice president of lying about the economy.

“I found it…interesting over the last couple of days to hear Vice President Biden and the president mention the fact that they didn’t realize how difficult an economic circumstance we were in,” Boehner said. “Now this is the greatest fabrication I have seen since I’ve been in Congress.”

“I’ve sat in meetings in the White House with the vice president and the president. There’s not one person that sat in those rooms that didn’t understand how serious our economic crisis was,” Boehner said.

Boehner also took a shot at the idea of a second stimulus – something Biden said he was open to last week.

“All of this talk of a second stimulus bill, I think, is an admission on the part of the administration that their stimulus plan is not working,” Boehner said.

On Thursday morning, Biden will appear at Cincinnati’s American Can Building to deliver a progress report on the stimulus act and will hold a similar event in Saratoga Springs later in the day.

The Democratic National Committee, meanwhile, released a web ad this morning blasting Boehner on the stimulus.

“Fact is, John Boehner supported the Bush economic policies of the past eight years that brought our economy to its knees,” the ad says. “Now John Boehner is using baseless attacks to mislead the public about the success of the Recovery Act.”

    I think Boehner may be the only elected official we have who is constantly calling the DC crowd on their bullshit. I think he should show up wherever Biden does and publicly humiliate the crap out of Special Joe and any other DC short bus riders who are with him. C’mon John, while the print attacks are good, you should lay into them in a public forum, call him out on the spot, I’d bet the news at 6 would be a lot more exciting and the vid would be an instant classic on youtube.

    Stimulus money targeted to help the homeless

    http://www.newsvine.com/_news/2009/07/08/3009321-stimulus-money-targeted-to-help-the-homeless

    “The money is being used in different ways:

    _A nonprofit in eastern Idaho hopes to apply its stimulus funds toward one-time payments for rent or mortgages to those on the verge of losing their homes.

    _Stockton, Calif., plans to buy foreclosed houses and renovate them as affordable housing.

    _Franklin County, Pa., will use stimulus money to help families with back rent and utilities, moving costs, short-term storage and credit repair.

    _In Reading, Pa., a coalition for the homeless plans to provide short-term rent aid and landlord-tenant mediation to prevent evictions.

    What happens when the money runs out remains to be seen.”
