Where’s our bailout? Come on Barack, help a brotha’ out!

It was the first listing on Google. Looks like MSNBC is whitewashing their site, or is blackwashing now?

And yes it does appear that the most liberal provinces are first in line – waiting for Mass to jump in.

Hmmm, I think I am beginning to see a pattern. The top 4 liberal populace states (unsure of Ohio, but I assume very liberla too) need a bailout. And the top 2 are heavy illegal immigrant destination states. How about you stop providing entitlements to every able bodied person (and to all illegals), stop funding every liberal program, and reduce your overall spending? What a concept. That is the way every individual and business must handle tough times. But they would rather the rest of us pay fo rtheir ridiculous unaffordable giveaway programs. Take a long walk off a short pier guys.

Oh, wait.

In the 2007 budget year, Medicaid costs devoured 24.2 percent of the state’s general fund, or $4.3 billion. Four years earlier, the figures were 20.5 percent and $3.7 billion.

First, he is angling for a $250 billion increase in federal payments for food stamps and Medicaid, the government health program for impoverished Americans and, increasingly, the working poor. Second, he favors a $250 billion national investment in infrastructure projects. Ohio has a list of “shovel-ready” projects, including roads, water and sewer improvements and “green economy” investments.

Third, in search of a palatable pitch to a Congress and nation numbed by the parade of rescue packages, Strickland is teaming with a handful of other Democratic governors to seek a $250 billion infusion for education. The group includes Jennifer M. Granholm (Mich.), Jon S. Corzine (N.J.), David A. Paterson (N.Y.), Jim Doyle (Wis.) and Deval L. Patrick (Mass.).

But earlier:

“We’re not crying wolf. This is real,” Strickland said in an interview in his statehouse office, pointing to charts that project the most serious erosion of state income in 40 years and a two-year budget deficit of $7.3 billion. Revenue shortfalls in the upcoming two-year budget could amount to about 25 percent of the state’s discretionary spending.

Drunken sailor much, Strickland?

#1 – California
#2 – New York
#3 – Illinois
#4 – Michigan
#5 – Ohio

Unfortunately, the rest will follow.
You see, its the Government that’s handing out the money – doesn’t cost us anything.
