Feh!
The Debate.
I think Governor Palin did great. If you think otherwise, I really don’t give a shit, nor do I wish to hear from you. There are plenty of other places where can go to show how smart you are by saying how stupid she is. I’m not in the mood.
The Bailout.
Our government, in a display of bi-partisanship, has hung a trillion dollar pork-laden turd around our necks. This, after the taxpayers coughed up $300 billion in July for relief to people who bought houses they damned well couldn’t afford and after the taxpayers handed out $150 billion earlier in the year for an “Economic Stimulus Package.†Yeah, that really got the economy humming along.
In the spirit of bi-partisanship, I have a proposal. I propose that every goddamned senator and every goddamned congressperson be voted out of office. Every goddamned one of them.
I’m pissed off, and if you’re not, there’s something seriously wrong with you. Then again, if you’re one of the thirty percent or so of population who pay no taxes, you might think this is all just swell.
I think I’m so beyond pissed that I just don’t care anymore. I care, but what is the point in exercising the energy to care when those we vote for don’t care about us?
I wonder if it ever occured to them that if they were going into more debt to pay off the debt of others that they should just give it to the people (and their children) who will be paying for it out the ass for the next upteen years.
It is all bullshit.

The only way to pay for this shit is for higher taxes for EVERYONE. Forget the whole, ‘rich people’ who make 250K. NO. It will be EVERYONE.
We have now seen what a Democratic Congress can do… and add Obama to that if/when he becomes President, and we are well on our f***ing way to become the largest welfare state this world has ever known.
And with cradle to grave care comes high f***ing taxes and not just on… the ‘rich’. It will be EVERYONE. EVERYONE.

Is there any problem they won’t throw stacks of our money at? What reforms are in this bill to keep the Jamie Gorelicks and Franklin Raines of the future from raiding and plundering the citizens? NO ONE is going to jail for this? Start with Dodd, Obama (D-ACORN), Schumer, and many more who were the foxes guarding the henhouse. Is there any hope for our country?

Fucking assholes. We’re going to be pulling their dicks out of our asses for the rest of our lives! What absolutely amazes me is how blantantly they completely disregard the people. Then that idiot bush signs the damn thing…before anyone can change their minds. Judas Preist! What the hell happened to our society?

I called my worthless liberal Representative and begged that she not vote for the ridiculous bailout. Many of my neighbors did likewise so she voted for it. Next step is to vote against her in Nov and wait for my taxes to go up.
Palin was like a breath or fresh air again. I thought I would rupture a hernia when she said with a smile, “Say it ain’t so Joe”……you betcha!!!

People are always whining about bi-partisanship, like it’s always such a good thing, such a great goal. Well, not necessarily. It means compromise. Sometimes compromise may be OK, but other times you have to take stand against what’s just plain WRONG and stick to your guns.
Personally I hate bipartisanship. Farook you, bi-partisanship.

If they were going to solve the problem, they could have STARTED by repealing the Comunity Reinvestment Act. That particular piesc of tripe is supposed to be the starting point of this hole the economy has dug down into. But, instead of doing that, they’ve voted themselves a shiny new shovel. We are sooooo screwed.
Vote them out. Vote them ALL out. They’ve all been there too long even if they just got there.

I don’t trust ANY of the elected weasels of any party. It’s crap like you brought up here (among others) that has convinced me to vote against any incumbent, regardless of office or ‘level’ of government, and to vote against both of the main Presidential candidates. Somehow, somewhere along the line, we have GOT to let these shitbirds know their ‘efforts’ aren’t appreciated.

I am getting the last laugh on those who told me I was just plain weird for wanting a new political party. Now they are understanding what I already knew..there ain’t a dime’s worth of difference between the current GOP and the dim-a-crits..just depends on which version of socialism you want to vote for. At least Saracuda appears to have some brains but she will lose what she has hanging around the gotdam RINOs

We don’t need to vote all of them out of office. Some didn’t vote for this shit.
