Republicans still don't understand that they lost the last election. They're trying to nullify the Obama stimulus plan with their own tax cuts for the wealthy policy. Somebody needs to wake them up.

And today the South Carolina Gov. Sanford has agreed to accept stimulus without strings. I guess the Reps will come around after they are bashed about a bit.
okie knows best, and he probably wants the schools in South Carolina to cut teachers by not accepting any of the stimulus money.

Sanford urged to prevent ‘chaos’
Lawmakers implore governor to accept money to avert a state financial disaster
By JOHN O’CONNOR [email protected]
South Carolina lawmakers Thursday attempted to turn up the pressure on Gov. Mark Sanford to accept $700 million in federal stimulus money intended to balance state budgets by funding schools and public safety.
Without the money, lawmakers said, the impact on the state budget would be chaos.
But U.S. Rep. James Clyburn, D-S.C., said the U.S. Department of Education may send the money to S.C. schools " even if the governor or lawmakers do not request it and argued state lawmakers should include the money in their budget.
A spokesman for Sanford said the governor has not changed his mind about using the money to pay off debt, and asked Senate and House leaders to meet and work out a plan.
The debate went to the House and Senate floors Thursday.
Senate Finance Committee chairman Hugh Leatherman said his committee will draft two budgets next week, one with the money and one without. But without half of the $700 million next year, Leatherman said, schools will lay off teachers, prisons will close and many state agencies could have their budgets virtually eliminated. State colleges, others said, could require double-digit tuition increases.
