Re: [cia-drugs] Fwd: [NewPacifica] Hold Your Breath! Pelosi says $150B economic stimulus plan needed

One private cargo C130 crew flew three flights per month between Virginia and 
Guantanamo Bay - with 6-10 million dollar satchels of cash on their plane.  
They were not the only crew flying that route.  This was allegedly CIA cash.  
Even if we only take that one crew into consideration and multiply their 18 
million per month for five years Congress needs to stop looking to those of 
us who have no money and look to those who stole all of it.

 Pelosi says $150B economic stimulus plan needed 
By COLLEEN SLEVIN, Associated Press Writer1 minute ago
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Wednesday that a $150 billion economic stimulus 
plan is needed now because of the faltering economy and she may call the House 
into session after the election to pass it.
Pelosi told reporters that the stock market meltdown, which has caused an 
estimated $2 trillion loss from pension funds, was a factor in her 
recommendation for a second stimulus bill. The first relief plan sent out 
$600-$1,200 tax rebate checks to most individuals and couples this year.
The House did pass a $61 billion economic aid proposal last month before 
lawmakers left Capitol Hill ahead of the Nov. 4 election. But a similar plan 
failed to pass the Senate. President Bush had promised a veto anyway.
If Democratic nominee Barack Obama wins the White House and if Capitol Hill 
Democrats make gains in the elections as well, it might be easier to pass a 
stimulus measure over dispirited Republicans, especially if the economy remains 
in big trouble.
The Senate is expected to be back at work after Election Day to complete a 
public lands bill and perhaps deal with other matters, such as a measure to 
extend unemployment benefits. The House also could return to consider a 
stimulus plan and additional issues in a lame-duck session before the newly 
elected Congress takes over in January.
"We may have to go back into session before the next Congress," Pelosi said..
Pelosi said a stimulus package would create jobs by investing in public works, 
increasing food stamps benefits and extending unemployment insurance for the 
long-term jobless. She said lawmakers need to "hunker down" and look closely at 
the federal budget for possible savings, and reconsider whether the U.S. can 
afford to fight "a war without end" in Iraq.
"We have some very harsh decisions to make and some of them can't wait until 
January," said Pelosi, D-Calif.
"What we can't wait for is a stimulus package," Pelosi added. "We may have to 
go back into session before the next Congress."
