Yeah that pretty much sums it up. Good article. Of course author will be villified, called everything but the child of God and the Obamites will continue to Praise the Annointed One while blaming everything from the Shit economy to record summer heat wave on Bush.

My disgust with the current administration and its acolytes is directly proportional to the levels of spending created by this Democratic Congress.

Their vilification of naysayers is nauseating.

No shit and what really amazed me was Nancy saying "we need to investigate the ground zero mosque dissenters". I almost fell off the couch! I mean WTF? Is she heading up the KGB? We can't disagree with congress, the POTUS or their agenda? I am sure this was a freudian slip (just like Barry talking about his "muslim beliefs"), but my God what more proof do you need?

Call me crazy but that Homeland Security "concentration camp" shit that went around the internet a while back is starting to "not sound" so crazy.

I guess it is the same in politics but worse. Right now we are feeling a lot of ass pain from over spending, but I think this is just the tip of the ice berg. We still need to reckon with social security.

Here's an interesting look at how government spends money... A friend who owns a company that handles billing and medical reports for 10 clinics told me that as part of ObamaCare, for every clinic that they switch over to the cetralized computer data base this year, they will be paid $40,000 buy Uncle Sugar for each one. He says it will cost less than $60,000 to switch over all ten. If he waits until next year to do the switch, he will be paid $30,000 for each, and if he waits four years to do it, he will be paid nothing when the swtich is mandated by law.

I never thought it would come to this in a million years, but I'd give my left nut to have Clinton back right now. Ha, ha. Holy shit, and I remember those days...we were some rucksack humpin' mother fuckers! Didn't have any money to do anything else but hump, hump, and hump!

I can't believe that as smart as you guys are you are so one sided in seeing who spent what and where
