Dear (new) Congress!!!

[lizbud]

Is anyone going to watch the president's speech this evening? I wonder
if this new congress will roll over & play dead for him the way the last
congress did.I would imagine not.

We'll probably miss the speech, tonight, and have to catch it online.

We have an important church meeting, this evening, that we need to attend.

I think I will probably be glad we missed it. I'm sure there will be "boos" and some applause. I might rather get it in the replays than here it in person.

Yep. This is really a more civil, transparent congress.

Hope you're happy with the reformers!

Sorry Charlie! The American Samoas have been exempt....nothing new there. If you read the story carefully you will see this is a rather misleading headline. What happened was other islands in the Pacific lost the exemption but not the Samoas (which very many people...including most of Congress I would guess...could not find on a map...) And....oh this will shock you... in the FLSA there is a different minimum wage for exemption from overtime for the American Samoas as well... There must be a way to blame that on Pelosi!

And what about Tuna of the Sea? Whose district are they headquartered in? Is that congressperson in on this great conspiracy???

Did you know agriculture is also exempt from the federal minimum wage? Has been since it was established as a part of the FLSA in 1938. I can see the headline now....Pelosi has agricultural companies in her district and she did not end the minimum wage exemption they have!

You'll have to do a little better than this one!

Most American Samoans are playing Football in the NFL....Even in overtimne they don't get paid........

Madame speaker needs a bigger military plane.


Like WTFITAB?

She wants a bigger plane for her family?

Isn't she a successful business owner?

Like why do I have to pay for her "grandkids" to go visit her.

Talk about pork.....

That is the reason she wants the Armed Forces back in the U.S....



She wants a C-5 or -141 at her beck and call!
