I’ve found a few things I wanted to share to get the word out:

Gateway Pundit has this up now:

CBO Predicts Recession Will End in 2009 Without Stimulus

CBO anticipates that the current recession, which started in December 2007, will last until the second half of 2009, making it the longest recession since World War II. (The longest such recessions otherwise, the 1973–1974 and 1981–1982 recessions, both lasted 16 months. If the current recession were to continue beyond midyear, it would last at least 19 months.) It could also be the deepest recession during the postwar period: By CBO’s estimates, economic output over the next two years will average 6.8 percent below its potential—that is, the level of output that would be produced if the economy’s resources were fully employed (see Figure 1). This ecession, however, may not result in the highest unemployment rate. That rate, in CBO’s forecast, rises to 9.2 percent by early 2010 (up from a low of 4.4 percent at the end of 2006) but is still below the 10.8 percent rate seen near the end of the 1981–1982 recession.

He also has the reminder in the post that the CBO said the stimulus would actually hurt and not help the economy.

Send the info to your friends and tell Congress as well!

One other website to be aware of:

SurgeUSA

Their heading at the top of the page:

Grow local leadership, not the federal bureaucracy: Awakening patriots to defend our freedom to choose against the liberal insurgency in America.

I hadn’t seen this one before today, so obviously I don’t know much about it: its sponsors or credibility. I do prefer it when a website like that has an About page and lists the contributors. The only bio there that I saw is just one man listed under Media Room.

However, it does look as if they are putting together a clearinghouse for useful information.

You’re welcome, Sue.

I am glad to provide the information. You don’t need to credit me, although you are kind to offer that.

Here’s one more item you might want to post. The Astute Bloggera have information on phone numbers, staff and email addresses of Specter, Collins and Snowe.

Hey, J!
