Tax Deal Becomes New Porkulus

Charles Krauthammer has a column on this deal today, on the tax deal, and it essentially says many of the things that we've been pointing out here all week about this deal regarding whether or not this is a stimulus, how Obama keeps calling it a stimulus. We've been asking the question, "Where is the stimulus in this bill?" There isn't any. There's no stimulus in keeping tax rates the same. But looked at from Obama's perspective, what does he consider stimulus? Spending. The Porkulus bill, $787 billion, $800 billion, that was stimulus. Never mind that it hasn't worked. Well, this thing has a lot of new spending in it. Now they're adding ethanol subsidies and who knows what else is being tacked on that we don't know about.
