John Avlon is either physically or mentally challenged. Does he really think that the GIVE Act, the unheard throwing away of tax payer money, on a stimulus package that will only create a “need” for more stimulus money. Wake up Avlon. Obama is about as much of a centrist as Joe Stalin or Adolph Hitler. If Obama vetos the GIVE Act might reconsider, but that is one of his promises and he will not veto it. Obama is a liar, a phoney, and an impostor.
I think that you may want to change the date to 3/28/09 as today is Saturday, March 28.
Why is the media falling for every distraction that the White House feeds them?
I spent hours trying to reach my elected officials and most offices don’t take messages or answer phones. They simply will not listen to the very people they work for and seem to have a “let ‘em eat cake” attitude when we complain about being robbed blind by people that have never worked for a living in their lives. These blood-sucking leeches seem to think that the government doesn’t need the very people paying taxes.
Since they will not listen to us…would you please let them know they might have the media under their spell… not me and not the people being put out of business due to these bugling bunch of buffoons and bandits!
Dear Weasels:
Based on your voting record, it is painfully clear that you haven’t read your State Constitution and probably not the U.S.Constitution. How dare you politicians usurp “states rights” enumerated under the Constitution? I know you haven’t read the “hog” bills that you approved but you took an oath to uphold the U. S. Constitution so you really should read it.
Listening to the politician’s mantra of how you “inherited” record deficits makes me wonder if you all have forgotten, or never knew, where and how a spending “hog” bill becomes law. What was “inherited” was exactly the “create a crisis” agenda that you in Congress (both houses) caused . The media may let you slide and blame someone else but we had a Democrat majority in both Houses. Last time I checked, Barack Obama was a U.S. Senator right along with Chris Dodd and the idiots in the house like Barney Frank! Shockingly, the Democrats had the majority so the only thing “inherited” is CONGRESS and the common gross negligence, incompetence and severe memory lapses for just how their “hog” bills are passed!
OUTRAGE!!! Once being caught for signing the unread “hog” bills, we are hearing how outraged thesse idiots are? Clueless Congress and President: These bonuses were allowed in the very unread bill that HE signed! What is the answer? Barney and his ilk pass an unconstitutional tax law in spite of legal contracts?
I know Obama didn’t spend much time on the job but surely he must remember that he and many, many of these hacks were up to their ears in the sub prime mortgage deal (Franks, Obama, Clinton, Dodd, Waters…ACORN, Black Congressional Caucus). Has he forgotten the bribes (donations) given to him by the very companies that were bailed out? I don’t care if they’re Democrats or Republicans, Socialists or in the case of many, international Communists. No politician should have accepted money from a company that the taxpayer has bailed out! These “donations” must be paid back to the taxpayer now and not to their packs and pals like ACORN! Give US our money back!
You are NOT allowed to void legal contracts. I am sick of this outrage over the AIG bonuses that are just a distraction to cover the asses of politicians too lazy to read the bill that gave them the bonuses in the first place. If AIG needs to return legal bonuses (thanks to the idiots in CONGRESS) then why aren’t those CONGRESS CROOKS being told to give back the bribes that they took from AIG, Freddy, Fannie and the rest of the financial institutions that received bailout money? I demand that you publicly request that all donations received by any member of congress from any of those institutions should be immediately returned to the federal government…. not to their favorite political charity, not to the donors but to the American people…. You know, the folks you are supposed to be protecting instead of stealing blind.
By the way, where is the $76 BILLION that you geniuses lost in the bailout bill last fall? Is anyone going to follow the money? Thank goodness that Fox is suing to find out.
Why hasn’t our “leadership” spoken out against the administration and fellow senators and congressmen that have voted unconstitutional for spending bills? We are spending at an alarming rate and our children are being enslaved to Communist China as a result of these political hacks.
I’ll have much more to say in regards to the Nationalization of health care , and the ridiculous cap & trade laws ( a more appropriate name would be “The Destruction of America’s Future” laws), The Americorps program ( Gee, Americorps sounds so much nicer than “Brownshirts doesn’t it?) but the #1 priority of congress must be the end of this massive borrowing to finance your political agenda.
“The problem with socialism, is that you eventually run out of other people’s money.”
~ Margaret Thatcher. Guess what, you have run out of our money! If you’ve got no money it’ time to stop spending.
