Dear (new) Congress!!!

[lizbud]

Just give them time to take off their coats, o.k.?
Seriously though, there is no shortage of issues that need attention by
our Representatives. At least the 4 day week is better than the 3 that
the last Congress had.

WOW! I didn't realize the last congress worked THAT much!!!

They all seem to like Fridays off. Go figure.

Don't forget that we have a Federal holiday next week, too, on Monday!!!! They will get an extra break. Of course, I'm not complaining because I will, too!!!!!

People are still naive enough to think that politicians will live up to their campaign pledges?

Too true! The only way I would beleive them is if they said, "I promise to raise taxes to put more money in my own pocket, I promise to do things to furhter my own agendas, and I promise to pay myself enough to take long vacations in the islands and have a new car every year". I'd beleive that.

I have several points I would like to make- but will make only one- does everyone know it will take until mid february for them to have " a 100 hours" of work logged??? A real person that works a full time job lets say does 40 hours a week- that 100 hours would be done by now on this date.. lol..
My daughter sent me something today on immagration laws. At first I thought it was a joke with statements of " if you come to work here, you must be management or better- no common laborers, " or " if caught here as an illegal alien you will placed in jail.."- and at the bottom of this whole long list- it stated " THESE ARE THE IMMAGRATION LAWS OF MEXICO.." ( no kidding!)

At this point, I think I would actually at least respect that since it's the truth......


Did that make sense?

No, just hoping for a return to a world where people keep their promises!!!

Does manicure,hairdressing, shopping time and taking personal phone calls from your kids count, Madam speaker?


Can I touch your gavel?

Borzoi.

LOL.

Where I used to work when time was mentioned I would ask,
"Is that supposed to happen in the company timeframe or real time?
