Max is depressed....
He listened to the speeches last night....
His comment was....."What a crock..!!"
His family lives on a budget......they are retired.....they live on SS, retirement income and with part-time jobs to add a little extra to the checkbook.....they balance their budget every month....they have "no way" of increasing their debt ceiling....
Why can't these guys get it together...??
Pull the USA out of these useless wars.....stop aid to countries that are trying to terrorize us thru out source jobs...oil.... or destruction...
Leave Social Security and Medicare alone....
Take a good long look at special interest issues.....establish term limits.....peal-back your own benefits....
Try living like to average American....??!!
Enough said....can't wait for the 2012 election....Mom' s already deciding where her vote will go....
Life is Good (?)

I'm one of those living on Social Security and some how my budget always balances every month. I cannot fathom what is being done to the budget for our US. I love my life in the Land of the Poor but Happy. Hope your Tuesday is a terrific one!
ReplyDeleteHi there, I totally agree with every suggestion you made. Those fat cats in D.C. have way to many benefits and perks-and lets stop loaning other countries our money and stop supporting rebuilding-after all don't think they'd do it for us. How about a little common sense in government. Stop grants to art that is perverted. I could go on and on.
ReplyDeleteGrateful for a simple life.
Hugs, Noreen
A quote from Senator Barack Obama back on March 20, 2006
ReplyDelete"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies. . . Increasing America’s debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that ‘the buck stops here. Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better."
Makes me just want to go "Hummmmmm."
Hah! I see we had the same thoughts, on the same day. Those speeches, whether they know it or not, may just have been the beginning of a true "People's Movement." We need to stop the waste, and we need big business and the rich to pay their fair share.
ReplyDeleteAmen!!!
ReplyDeleteI'll vote for Max next time. Oh I didn't vote for Obama last time. Not making light of the situation, you have some good ideas.
ReplyDeleteMax,what are you doing sitting at home? Get thy hairy butt to DC and give them an ear full.
ReplyDeleteI went outside to sit until the speech was over........
ReplyDeleteI agree completely! Stop the good ole boy politics! What happened to the values our founding fathers honored?
ReplyDeleteOh......I could really go off as well....I agree with you and more!!!!
ReplyDelete"We the People" not "We the government" Does anyone remember the Boston Tea Party, when the people that left the tyranny of the government in Europe revolted because of the taxes with representation were being piled high on them in this country?
ReplyDeleteWell, if we forgot it, then they can do whatever they want to us because they know that people will drink the "kool aid"...Let the buyer beware.....and the Constitution that is so not read anymore has a safety net for the PEOPLE to use to downsize the monster in Washington...
They give a BIG, BIG amount to refurbish mosques and give them computers, all in the name of building relations with them....What a joke!!
My two cents....
Jesus, name above all Names is all that Matters anyway....
