Why 1984 Was Really Deleted By Amazon

Although he won’t say it that way, it’s essentially the truth about the Obama “stimulus” package (American Recovery And Reinvestment Act) (via Hot Air):

Turns out the $787 billion “American Recovery and Reinvestment Act” (AARA) was not designed for full economic recovery, but rather to “stabilize” the downturn. That’s the word from White House officials today, who held off-camera briefings with reporters on how the AARA is working so far.

Of course when we were in such a gawd-awful rush to pass the thing it was sold like this:

That is why I have moved quickly to work with my economic team and leaders of both parties on an American Recovery and Reinvestment Plan that will immediately jumpstart job creation and long-term growth. …

It is also what it has failed to do.

So, revising history on the fly, it was now never designed to that.

No wonder Amazon is out there deleting Orwell books from Kindle – who needs to read fiction when you have an administration like this.
