    It's really sad. They know how to fix the economy – it's been done before – but they won't… they're letting their consitutents burn while they work toward their bull**** agenda.

    Sample from Fox News Sunday:

    John Boehner: We offered a cheaper alternative than 787 billion. Our version cost half as much.

    Steny Hoyer: Pfft… it was the same thing they did in 2001.

    Boehner: We created FIVE MILLION new jobs.

    Hoyer: That number is ridiculous.

    Boehner: Five million.

    Hoyer: Well… well… during the Clinton administartion we created TWENTY-ONE million new jobs.

    My response: Well then Steny, WHY don't you guys do what Clinton and the Republican-controlled Congress did instead of the bull**** agenda the O-Team is running with?

    Audit the congress…
    They have no problem doing it to civilians, it's time to see where our trillions of dollars are going.
    We could have a new congress in a month, due to everyone stepping down before their name was called.

    Typical hypocrites is what our leaders are. Obama has a big Luau on our dime while people are losing their homes, jobs. I thought he cared so much. This is the hope and change apparently. I'm really going to be hoping for change.We should have known when Obama put a tax cheat as head of the Treasury. I guess not much going on with other tax cheats like Rangel. The Dems will probably give him a pass too.

    Here we go. The US economy is not coming back right now. Let me share some of the headlines that http://www.americanparchment.com reported: New York City Sees Slide in Tourism, NY City Apartment Sales Down More Than 50%, 'We're in the Middle of a Crash': Black Swan, US jobs data dash recovery hopes, No Decision Yet on More Stimulus, Dow Slides Almost 200 After Weak Jobs Report, Retailers cut 21,000 jobs in June, Job Losses Accelerated in June, 467000 Jobs Lost in June; Unemployment Reaches 9.5%, CA: State rolls out $3.36 billion in IOUs today, and Schwarzenegger Orders Shutdown as Budget Gap Grows. This was just yesterday's headlines. President Obama said the economy was so bad when it hadn't turned too bad. Now he is telling us that the economy is coming back when it is still tanking. I don't know where he gets his news but we are in the middle of it. He is going to be another Carter with all these programs squandering our Tax-Payer dollars while unemployment continues to slide his whole term. I hope I am wrong but look at what he is doing to our dollar and deficit. Will China keep buying our Bonds, most likely not.

    Last I knew, Gov't officials were supposed to pay for their personal trips, especially the President when using Air Force 1, especially when taking his wife on a shopping spree or dinner and a play in New York!!!

    Pres Bush allowed the previous Speaker of the House to us an Air Forse jet for official business, now Nancy Pilosi (aka Miss Waterboarding 2009) uses it for vacations.

    • Dave48763 says:

      The very thought of Pelosi in any Miss Waterboarding 2009 calander would make a great sci fi creature,,,as the way she helpped build Califorina to what it is today,,,would make a great movies set,,,,the Creature of the IOUS,,,,

    • Dave48763 says:

      The very thought of Pelosi in any Miss Waterboarding 2009 calendar would make a great sci fi creature,,,as the way she helped build California to what it is today,,,would make a great movies set,,,,the Creature of the IOUS,,,,

      • Fish_Guy says:

        Since the only Difference between a Democrat and a Socialist is that a Democrat dresses better, I thought that
        tagging "2009" on the end as opposed to "USA".

    OMG. Michael Jackson's dead???

  11. donhooksc says:

    I have no more faith in the American government any more. Isn't there one constitutional lawyer out there that can figure out how we, the people, impeach a president without the House of Rep(rehensible)s? There has to be a way.

  13. OldMarine says:

    This time Bush didn't do it, but wait a few days, they'll try to blame Micheal Jackson on Bush. By th way the memorial service is at the staple's center, just in case no one has heard.

  14. beenfield says:

    Queen Pelosi is laughing up her sleeve as she sees herself benefiting greatly from this cap and trade she is trying to ram through. Not only will she screw Cal. with her environmental issues but she will make a bundle privately with her "investments". Is there no moral code any longer in D.C.? Where are the ethics investigators or our government officials? Even when they leave D.C. (Gore) they continue to benefit from their former dalliances in congress and the senate. Where are the laws they should be passing about not benefiting from rearrranging our government while they are there so they get more as they leave? Term limits guys and no returning once you've left to lobby for new arrivals!!!!!!!!!!!
