Mark my words: this will be used as a reason for--you know it--ANOTHER multi-billion dollar stimulus package. Please make your voices heard: "This isn't working! Stop spending! You are intentionally destroying our dollar's worth!"

Pending home sales unexpectedly plunged in November, according to a report issued Tuesday by the National Association of Realtors, posting their largest drop on record after several months of positive gains for a closely-watched indicator of housing market activity.
According to the industry group, November pending home sales activity dropped by 16% to a reading of 96.0, compared with the previous month’s reading of 114.3. The drop was much larger than expected by Wall Street, which was looking for a dip of 2% for the indicator for November.
It was the largest drop, point-wise, since the industry group started the index in 2001, dragging the indicator to its lowest level since June.

Despite a $700 billion Wall Street bailout and a $787 billion stimulus bill that aimed to create -- or save -- jobs, 15.4 million Americans are unemployed, 3.1 million more than since the stimulus bill passed in February.

The Next Time...
...a politician tells us, "We don't have time to think about it; we NEED to pass this bill TODAY", we need to say "NO!"

Talk about a stimulus package.
The National Endowment for the Arts may be spending some of the money it received from the Recovery and Reinvestment Act to fund nude simulated-sex dances, Saturday night "pervert" revues and the airing of pornographic horror films at art houses in San Francisco.
The NEA was given $80 million of the government's $787 billion economic stimulus bill to spread around to needy artists nationwide, and most of the money is being spent to help preserve jobs in museums, orchestras, theaters and dance troupes that have been hit hard by the recession.
But some of the NEA's grants are spicing up more than the economy. A few of their more risque choices have some taxpayer advocates hot under the collar...
