    I cant see how raising taxes make things better.
    What happened out here is the freaking population grew so fast-you would not believe the places where houses have been built-when you see the state burning and the houses going up in flames, I can guarantee you that those house are less than 10 years old.

    The 'old rates' just can't support the influx of people.

    That and the fact that everyone drives out here so the effing traffic and roads are the pits.

    Put it this way, a 20 minute drive to work was a 2 hour fight to get home around holidays. One Thanksgiving eve it took me almost 2.5 hrs to get home.

    Tax 'n' spend keeps getting us into messes, no matter whether it's the state, feds or whatever. I think once you get on the treadmill it's wicked hard to get off of it.

    Can someone get our president a personality, not some speech on a teleprompter?

    One of the funniest things about watching BO is the head movements he makes while 'giving' a speech as he reads.

    The more I see it, the more I am reminded of some actor reading a script and acting out what is printed on the page. It's all pre packaged tripe with only a talking head to roll it around in their mouth, then tell us how it tastes.

    You all just crack me up! You didn't like when we had a Republican Pres. You don't like the Democrate one. Is there any one you would like? Let us know now. Maybe we can have them run in next election. They should start campaigning for it soon.
    No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

    We want someone without the baggage and ulterior motives.

    It's all the same kind of BS.

    The politicians today aren't men or women. They are the creation of the people who buy them and sit them in office.

    IT's really not a matter of LIKING a politician.

    It's all about respect.

    And I have more respect for the 'offices' than I have for the people that sit in them.

    A newshead/talking head made this comparison-and how true is it?


    During the last few years, making a big deal and slamming the government and the idiots who run it, was touted as being patriotic. It goes back to that old adage about questioning authority.

    It was OK to clown on the previous administration. Now? You can't because you are a racist, a jerk and what ever else the supporters of the current government can call you.

    Seems like what is good for the goose, just may be foie gras from the gander?

    ----------------------

    Let me bring the "date night" trip up again.

    This shows how dumb people are!

    MO is shown in the crowd at the D-Day ceremony. Why is she there?

    BO could have easily told her, "Hey, let's go paint the town in France next week instead of wasting all that taxpayer money by going to New York...."

    Nope, he had to show off and make it a publicity stunt.

    And what woman doesn't want to be treated to a night on the town with plane and helicopter flights? Golddiggers?

    As I said before, I don't care who sits in the hot seat, as long as the are up front with how the run MY country.

    Lots of luck with that one!!!

    I noticed that most stations don't even bother to give the results on how many vote for Independent canidates any more. Here anyway.

    So, the next loser, er president, will be a donkey or elephant. Those canidates will be chosen by big businesses! We just have to settle for the least of the two evils. (of course the way the big businesses are going bankrupt, someone else may have a tiny shot at getting in by then)
