Boy aren't these government folks doing a swell job? They deserve raises for all the long hours they put in spending this country into oblivion.
This stuff is crazy, we need to show up en mass and knock on the doors of Congress, this cannot be sustained.

Thank you Senator Coburn. I am proud that you represent me. Keep up the hard fight, Dr. No!
What in God's name is enviromental justice landscaping? These people must be having flashbacks.
Your tax dollars at work.
Vote 'em all back in next election cycle…………
I'll bite.
Hum, could it be pulling weeds out without their Miranda Rights being read?
Sunset strip needs repaving because all those liberal "movie stars" can't be hitting any potholes on their way to pick up the hookers.
It's a bunch of drunk and stoned liberal losers with scissors crawling around clipping the lawn instead of using one of those Big Oil consuming Mother Gaia destroyers: lawnmowers.
Does the Sunset Strip rehab include a new "Child Sexual Assault Museum"? Would be all the rage these days.
Thank you for posting this. I'm keeping a record.
so if companies are getting heat for not cutting ceo bonus programs, why is it government executives get higher bonuses. shouldn't the bad economy effect our government pay too. they are the ones that caused this.
pressoffice@olympic.org
not sure who reads that address but I sent my nice email about how we don't need the 2016 Olympics and for sure the Olympic committee does not need the corruption issues it has had in the past. Also told them America is broke !!!!
The National Science Foundation is studying porn?
Do the nude photos of B. Hussien Obama's mom that Pamela Geller linked to, regarded as "porn" ? or is that something else? just wonderin'.
Sunset strip gets a face lift, but the state is broke? Hello?????????
Sorry, forgot it was California we were talking about.
Lets see… The National Science Foundation spends it time (and our money) accessing pornography and coming up with hair-brained schemes like Environmental Justice Landscaping. Tell me again why we need this agency?

It's landscaping in poor inner city neighborhoods. Phoenix is horrible everywhere, but those places are hell holes. I don't think this is all that ridiculous.
The roadway hasn't been fixed since the 1930s, and that's what the $$ is for. Don't you read the links?
