   Well, they will be using it to construct a new facility at the Kennedy Presidential Library. This will require hiring thousands of illegals aliens as stoop labor in lieu of using modern Caterpillar equipment. That is Obama’s definition of stimulus creating millions of new jobs, 90% of which will be private sector, via infrastructure spending where the CEO of Caterpillar sees no heavy construction.

   I suspect the goal is to maximize the employment of illegals in building new “great” pyramids.

    That’s the funny thing about north east libs – they don’t get it. They pay Washington $1 and get back 75 cents and think they got a good deal – so much so that they want to do it more.
    So then they send washington $2, get $1.50 back and think they got 75 cents. Keep it up. This is great they think.
