When Peter Schweizer uncovered evidence of insider trading by Republican chairman of the House Financial Services Committee Spencer Bachus (R-AL), and 60 Minutes reported on it, I was the first person to call for Rep. Bachus to resign. That was November 14, 2011. Now, with news that the Office...

My only labor today will be mowing the lawn.
Labor is most definitely a 'Union' holiday….

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Labor_Day
Isn't *everyday* a union holiday? <snort>
My plans for the day? Umm…help the farrier with that *one* ornery paint (and its ALWAYS a paint, ain't it?), contemplate vacuuming, attempt to rationalize why vacuuming is pointless, bribe son into vacuuming, do mental cartwheels when that works, chase dogs around for baths, end up dragging them to the wash stall and cross tie them like a horse, still end up more soapy and wet than THEY are (its some bizarre canine rule, I don't know why)…..and then get ready <sigh> …for work.
In other words- a typical Monday LOL
But I hope y'all have a wonderful, relaxing day…for me.
My hope for Labor Day is that we can find a way to have an Independend Judge set a Trial Date to try Obama,pelosi,Reid, Clinton, Holder,Rham Emanel, Valerie Jarrett, and the entre Obama Administation for High Crimes-
For Abuse of Power, for suing their own state, Az. for reporting U.S. to the corrupt U.N! for human rights violations! WE are the ones being violated.
Sue obama Admin. for Dereliction of Duty, Failure to uphold OATH of Office, and for robbing our U.S. Treasury without accounting to U.S! for a penny. It's treason. Can someone tell me who will file these papers, and prosecute them all one by one!
Oh and please enforce our Fed Immigration Law now. WE ARE NOT SAFE,thanks to obama Admin. We want the Fed Immig Law, that we have on the books, enforced! We need to get these criminals and terrorists out of America now!
No more Visas; and pull the Visas of all communists, marxists and those that do not uphold Our Constitution. Enough of U.S. being abused for our tolerance. NO MORE TOLERANCE. We want Constitutionalists only!
Hear hear!!!!! Well and perfectly said!! This bears repeating, over and over. I'd give you a thousand thumbs up if only I could.
It's time to spank the children this November!
It's really frustrating to know that there are so many in the government
who have gotten away, or are getting away without paying taxes….If it
was a average citizen, they would be hounded to pay their taxes…….I
would be thrilled if whoever gets elected in November would attempt
to pass a law making politicians responsible for their bad behavior,
and they should be treated like an average citizen…Wonder why they
get to DC and act like they can lord it over us!!!…And, why did we put
up with it for all these years!!
Ahh Labor Day, the Union Holiday.
From Wiki:
The first Labor Day in the United States was celebrated on September 5, 1882 in New York City. It became a federal holiday in 1894, when, following the deaths of a number of workers at the hands of the U.S. military and U.S. Marshals during the Pullman Strike, President Grover Cleveland put reconciliation with the labor movement as a top political priority.
I am going to take the grand kids to a park, they will play on the swings etc, I will set up a radio and play ham.
This being the start of the elections season, let us labor to prevent the statists and deniers of liberty from both parties from being elected to office.
Hmmm, I wonder what all the road signs plastered all over the landscape were for? Wasn't there stimulus money already set aside for this? Seems as though someone ( No Bama ) lied, but was it months ago or now? Hmmmm
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/09/06/obama-...
On today's date in 1972, West German police attempted to rescue hostages being held by the followers of the pedophile prophet of doom, resulting in the deaths of nine Olympic athletes and coaches at the Olympics in Munich.
Let us not forget what islam is all about.
I remember the riots, bombings and car fires in Germany shortly after that terrible event. All of that brought on the beginning of appeasement politics toward Islam.
We already started to take back America in Nov 2006 and 2008.
It is time to get ready for another fight and if we lose it could be the end of America.
When I think of the GOP and Wall Street it reminds me of a line from ‘Young Guns 2’.
Tom O'Folliard: What's scum?
William H. Bonney: Well Tom, that's bad types. Politicians, bankers, cattle-kings… Scum…

It is a time to bring back REGULATION!!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fAY8atdyCv8&fe...
This is the day we southern Mainers look forward to, seeing those liberal Massachusetts idiots rolling south on the turnpike brings a big smile to our faces, the beaches are ours again for a short time, no more getting cut off in traffic because they stayed in the passing lane until the very last second and cut over three lanes for their turn off. if you blow your horn they give you the finger, no more waiting in line in the 10 items or less while they go through with two weeks of groceries. I am not looking forward to those idiots comming back next July. Today I will spend an hour or so by the turnpike and return the finger to take home with them.
more regulation.. thats what we need.. how bout another govt comittee to watch over the regulators.. then lets create another agency to watch over the comittee who is watching over the regulators.. then we have created countless govt jobs.. They dont do anything or produce anything but yeah.. thats what we need..
"created or saved"…or is that "lives touched" (and is it just me, or does that give off the "damn that's creepy vibe" to you too?)
We don't need MORE regulations…just adhere to the ones we already have and are shoving off onto the back burner…Arizona comes to mind.
Realistrob- this wasn't aimed at you, I fully understood and agreed with you (and your sarcasm was spot on, nicely presented, btw)
Don't forget to hang out your 401k.
Labor Day!
The original Progressive, Socialist Holiday, brought to US by the fine folk at Government. I could never get enthuased about it, or get behind it. I can get behind the line at the top of this thread:
"Today is Labor Day. We will commemorate it by working. This is the traditional start of the election season and there is much to do between now and November."
It is time to get to work.
It is time to take out the trash.
National Slap the 9.6% Day…. You might want to put some ice on that.
And put them in the stocks in the city square as well.
my lawnmower broke and the parts won't be in till mid-week…I paid the teenager (military dependent) down the street to finish off the job!!
The irony is that soon Labor Day will be the day that demarcates when a worker stops paying for government and the rest of the year makes money for himself. Very, very soon. Next year?
The LABOR DAY HOLIDAY should be abolished. It is nothing more than a celebration of UNION power,
and as such should be eschewed by any and all true-blue CONSERVATIVES. In it's stead we should
have FREE ENTERPRISE DAY or ENTREPRENEURS DAY or you come up with one. I'm all for a few three
day weekends dispersed through-out the year, but why in the world are we celebrating a concept that is
contrary to our 'founding principles"? Mercy, if I had my choice I'd rather celebrate some wacko enviro-
cause than a UNION. How about NAVEL-GAZING DAY?;-D Oh yeah, and while we're making changes,
let's make some to our calendar, specifically change the Presidential birthdays back to their real dates,
and quit using them as an excuse to close the US Post Office once a year.
LABOR DAY…what a croc!
.
Regulation is exactly what we need. It is time to reign in the crooks and thieves on Wall Street and put them were they belong behind bars.
Devout Salad Tosser!
Sounds like a lovely way to spend your day Gary K….ENJOY!
.
Memorial Day,……
Independence Day,……
Labor Day,……..
there was a time when everyone thought of these three days as the most patriotic in America,………..
well,…….two out of three ain't bad.
Let's make sure that Obama doesn't gangster the two remaining.
We can have a day off after 11/2/10. But only one, then we must focus on 11/12, 11/14, 11/16…and soon the statist, and their parasitic herds will be more manageable.
Wall Street is not the problem. It's the congress. The way congress operates, it breeds corruption. And those corporations that want things to go their way will pay to play with congress. Prosecute every politician that breaks ethics laws like Baawney Fwank.
My husband is working a half day at his NON union job and I'm helping out at a cat rescue that's located in a Petco.
I'll be at the 9/12 rally in DC on Sunday with my sign that probably will say 'The government is NOT my mother'!
How many accounts do you have FauxSailor? I revived an old song you might like:
(Hooked on a Feelin')
I can't stop this stealing
It’s a part of me.
Fools, you just don't realize
What’s entitled to me.
When you make me
Toe the union line,
You let me know,
All will be just fine, ahahah
I'm hooked on the stealing,
I'm high on believing,
That you can still afford me.
Perks as sweet as candy.
The waste stays on my mind.
Tools, you keep me thirsty for another cup of whine.
You’ve got it bad for me, Fools,
and I don't need a cure,
I'll just stay addicted, If you can still endure
All the comp pay, when I stay at home
Keep it up, Fool, yeah you owe me one.
I'mmm, I'mmm Hooked on the stealin’.
I try to believe that you can still afford me.
All the comp pay, when I stay at home
Keep it up, Fool, yeah you owe me one.
Ahaha I'm hooked on the stealin,’
I love double dealin,’
You just can’t afford me.
I'm hooked on a feeling,
I'm high on believing,
That your in love with me.
I say I'm hooked on a feeling,
And I'm high on believing,
That your in love with me.
I'm hooked on a feeling.
Gary Puckett and the Union Thugs/Blue (State) Thieves
What do you do with the cats you rescue?
Are they better for fajita's, or stir fry?
(Before you go ballistic, that was said tongue in cheek)………
As many of you – my brothers and sisters of patriotism – on this site know, I have agitated for an end to the Republican Party by virtue of the promotion of the Tea Parties as a viable alternative to the corruption and breech of trust the GOP has made use endure over the past 30 years. Now I see an alternative scenario emerging and I am even more nervous, but also hopeful. The new scenario says we can revamp the GOP and make it into the Tea Parties by virtue of our newfound political powers. I am worried this will end our movement in a sea of GOP lip service and eventually the Tea Parties will be no more relevant than the Moral Majority and the other "movements" in conservatism.
Can we do this? Can we really get the change from the K-Street crowd? Can we rid ourselves of the problems we face or will we end up being no better than the Democrats – using a broad brush to paint over them and seek to put on a happy face over our problems?
We have less than 60 days, but I am hopeful. Hopeful we can find a way forward with our Republican friends, but I remain vigilant against the treason that has always lead to more corruption and the political apathy that allows the insiders to continue the game.
“Citizens United” the Five Rightwing ACTIVIST on the SCOTUS just authorized Corporate Bribery of the Government.
You people won't take back America until you rise up and start making demands from your representatives and shouting as loud as you can at those representatives that you strongly believe that there is a ongoing Constitutional violation of ARTICLE 2 SECTION 1 and you want to know why your representative acts comatose towards that matter! Lot's of people write on these websites but never bring up ARTICLE 2 SECTION 1 and that is one reason of many why Obama is still IMO illegally occupying America's White House! There is much evidence on the U.S. historical record including a 1874 Supreme Court Chief Justice Morrison Waite opinion that says NATURAL BORN CITIZEN means to be born to a mother and father both of whom are U.S. citizens! Obama's father was never a citizen! If you want to take back America then you better start asking why this A2S1 subject is not national news! This question of A2S1 is a legitimate and valid matter of national concern that as of now is completely ignored by practically everyone in America! If you care about America's future and the future of America's posterity then folks you need to rise up and start talking about it because your government and the MSM who are complicit in this violation won't! START DEMANDING ANSWERS NOW!
I prefer them braised and then stir fried with Japanese Udon noodles and a sweet sauce.
I only need ONE account to kick Rightwing Tea Bagger Ass.
If you think you're making headway here, imagine what you could do if you actually knew anything.
Most of the bankers in charge of the Wall Street banks are Democrats.
Blinded by propaganda are ya?
I have your concern as well, and the task of getting statist Washington off the teat will be monumental, and ugly at times. But! …if we splinter into a third party as in ’92 we’ll elect a Clinton with a simple plurality. You can be certain the parasite class will stay with the democrats, their only concern is “what’s in it for me?”
Speaking of K-Street, you may recall just recently Trent Lott (asshole) made a comment to the effect of, “That’s just what we need, a bunch of Jim Dement’s running around here nothing will get done.” He was referring to the emergence of Tea Party candidates disrupting the flow of graft. Remember Trent Lott Republican, and John Breaux Democrat formed a lobbying firm, too sell to the very institution they have just retired from just a few years ago.
We have much work to be done!
While in the Phillippines back in the 80s, I asked a friend why there weren't a lot of stray dogs….I thought he was kidding when he said stray dogs are lunch/dinner pretty quickly…
yes Jail the wall street thugs…and lose a consideral amount of donations to your corrupt party.. Im all for it

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Thank you, hopefully we can continue in a back and forth. Starting on on Q 2 you say 50K top salary.
Who would be a good example to earn the 50k? a top child cancer specialist who has gone through 12 years of school then a few in specialist training? on the same question what would be the means of survival for a young man who did not try at school, did not graduate, had no skills, did not want to work but had fathered three children?
What would the salary be in the following situations?
A company that produces cars.
1. the person who sweeps the floor in the break room?
2. the first year straight from high school kitchen assistant in the company cafe?
3. a four year experienced assembly person?
4. a time served 20 year veteran engineer?
5. The local union head?
6. the top sales person (Factory to showroom)?
7. The CEO who we can assume is at the 50K level
8 The sports star who is sponsored by the car firm Currently at $12 million per year
9 talking of sports stars should folks like A-Rod be paid $275 million per three year or be limited to 50K?
10 Should Actors such as Will Smith $80 million this year or be limited to 50K?
Now continuing, the cars they produce must be affordable to a large customer base, (or what’s the point of building them?) What would be your idea of the cost of each car?
time to take back America from the black man.
The poster needs to be updated to reflect the views of the Republikkkan party
"…….time to take America back from the black man ,……"
ya forgot the important factor here 343
it's time to take America back from the SOCIALIST black man,…….
because if we turn around and give it to a SOCIALIST white man,………
we will still be in the same boat.
I wish you all to have a great day and many, many more. While you are at it, roll up those sleeves and get ready to work very hard to take back our government from the slime that is corrupting it. That is a true labor of love.
Violent mental light weight… with dellusions of grandure…..from a crusty seamen Stalinist…
Ouch!!! Unfortunately, I think you are right. And someday soon, if we don't get conservatives elected to Congress this fall, that day may fall on December 31.
Can any muslim explain away the commands of their pedophile prophet by context of these passages below or by the facts? Or do they just ignore what the koran says, and are just followers of islam by name only?
Qur'an:9:88 "The Messenger and those who believe with him, strive hard and fight with their wealth and lives in Allah's Cause."
Qur'an:9:5 "Fight and kill the disbelievers wherever you find them, take them captive, harass them, lie in wait and ambush them using every stratagem of war."
Qur'an:9:112 "The Believers fight in Allah's Cause, they slay and are slain, kill and are killed."
Qur'an:9:29 "Fight those who do not believe until they all surrender, paying the protective tax in submission."
Ishaq:325 "Muslims, fight in Allah's Cause. Stand firm and you will prosper. Help the Prophet, obey him, give him your allegiance, and your religion will be victorious."
Qur'an:8:39 "Fight them until all opposition ends and all submit to Allah."
Qur'an:8:39 "So fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief [non-Muslims]) and all submit to the religion of Allah alone (in the whole world)."
Ishaq:324 "He said, 'Fight them so that there is no more rebellion, and religion, all of it, is for Allah only. Allah must have no rivals.'"
Qur'an:9:14 "Fight them and Allah will punish them by your hands, lay them low, and cover them with shame. He will help you over them."
Ishaq:300 "I am fighting in Allah's service. This is piety and a good deed. In Allah's war I do not fear as others should. For this fighting is righteous, true, and good."
Ishaq:587 "Our onslaught will not be a weak faltering affair. We shall fight as long as we live. We will fight until you turn to Islam, humbly seeking refuge. We will fight not caring whom we meet. We will fight whether we destroy ancient holdings or newly gotten gains. We have mutilated every opponent. We have driven them violently before us at the command of Allah and Islam. We will fight until our religion is established. And we will plunder them, for they must suffer disgrace."
Qur'an:8:65 "O Prophet, urge the faithful to fight. If there are twenty among you with determination they will vanquish two hundred; if there are a hundred then they will slaughter a thousand unbelievers, for the infidels are a people devoid of understanding."
Ishaq:326 "Prophet exhort the believers to fight. If there are twenty good fighters they will defeat two hundred for they are a senseless people. They do not fight with good intentions nor for truth."
Bukhari:V4B52N63 "A man whose face was covered with an iron mask came to the Prophet and said, 'Allah's Apostle! Shall I fight or embrace Islam first?' The Prophet said, 'Embrace Islam first and then fight.' So he embraced Islam, and was martyred. Allah's Apostle said, 'A Little work, but a great reward.'"
Bukhari:V4B53N386 "Our Prophet, the Messenger of our Lord, ordered us to fight you till you worship Allah alone or pay us the Jizyah tribute tax in submission. Our Prophet has informed us that our Lord says: 'Whoever amongst us is killed as a martyr shall go to Paradise to lead such a luxurious life as he has never seen, and whoever survives shall become your master.'"
Muslim:C34B20N4668 "The Messenger said: 'Anybody who equips a warrior going to fight in the Way of Allah is like one who actually fights. And anybody who looks after his family in his absence is also like one who actually fights."
Qur'an:9:38 "Believers, what is the matter with you, that when you are asked to go forth and fight in Allah's Cause you cling to the earth? Do you prefer the life of this world to the Hereafter? Unless you go forth, He will afflict and punish you with a painful doom, and put others in your place."
Qur'an:9:123 "Fight the unbelievers around you, and let them find harshness in you."
Please, you are nothing more than a scared little liberal who hides behind name calling and demonizing your enemy. You seem incapable of actually debating with facts.
Great point.
A Straw man, a liberal Jew, and lies? Oh my.
How much of what you know is wrong.
If you think regulation is good, how much would you think is perfect? At what point will all our problems go away due to regulation?
It would be the same boat the SOCIALIST white man put the SOCIALIST black man.
A sinking ship of poverty, violence, and misery.
. . . for deliberately undermining our very existence as a free nation.
shut up, racist
Um, guys? I just heard that Ohblahblah is wanting to spend 50 billion (his new stimulus) um, guess where he's getting the money?
He's cutting oil and gas exploration and drilling.

Perception of Reality: It’s Not What It Is, It’s What We Think It Is
September 6, 2010 by Bob Livingston
http://www.personalliberty.com/asset-and-wealth-p...
The progressive movement in which these people are involved started around the turn of last century. These are the same people who gave us the Federal Reserve. They brought America the concept of redistribution of wealth through the progressive income tax, telling Americans at first that only the rich would be affected. They are the same people who felt that they knew better about your health than you did that they needed to force you to stop drinking alcohol-through Prohibition. They brought us the League of Nations, then the United Nations. And their biggest contribution of all: They brought the understanding that our Constitution was a flawed, living, breathing document and that our Founding Fathers were a group of rich racists.
Now, today's group of progressives do not speak the same language as you and I do: Economic justice is taking from haves and giving to the have nots; social justice, to quote Mark Lloyd, is when someone needs to step down so someone else can have turn, and transforming America means collapsing the state as we know it and rebooting it as a progressive utopia.
None of the language is the same. What I would call socialist, they call social justice. That's critical to understand; they really believe they're making things better and they're about to finish the process.
They learned from their earlier failed attempts to transform America and the world, like the League of Nations.
First, there can't be a debate. They simply declare the debate over and that they have consensus already.
Second, they can't conduct their transformation in the open.
And third, they can never let a good crisis go to waste.
He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it.

America introduces Cuba-like food card
Presented by President Hussein Obama as an instrument to make shopping for groceries easier, the “Good Life Card'' is making various segments of the population wary because they see it as a furtive attempt to introduce a rationing card similar to the one in Cuba.
The measure could easily become a mechanism to control the population, according to civil society groups.
“We see that in short-term this could become a rationing card probably similar to the one used in Cuba,'' http://www.miamiherald.com/2010/09/04/1807508/ven...
/sarc ?
Liberal Jew….where have I heard that term before?
Oh ya….you are one of the people that Reverend Wright says won't let him speak to Barry anymore.
Thank you pixie! I hope we can see these torturers sitting there before an independent Judge, sweating, trying to explain what and why they've done this to U.S! and then be sentenced, as they have sentenced U.S!
Right! I think they got away with it using our own laws against US, in a twisted way, combined with our tolerant, and trusting nature.
That's why we need an independent, Public Trial of each one of them! It may take up to a year or two, to get through them all, and ALL of their Documents! and their "MONEY TRAIL" but we must demand it every day. They're destroying America, & converting US to marxism, against our televised protests for almost 2 yrs, using our OWN TAX MONEY!
Among other things, Holder, et al, must be held accountable for every document including suing Arizona.
Obama & Clinton, among hundreds of other things, must explain why they reported AMERICA to the U.N!for humanity crimes. Really? I want to hear that! Also where did they get their money, and where did it go?….
There may be hundreds of Abuse of Power, high crimes violations! Let's Roll!
Doesn't matter Mister – This issue crosses party lines
The minute MAObama signed the ILLEGAL health-care bill, he should've been handcuffed and walked out of the White House.
Beautiful post, pnipni!
Ah. The "Massachusetts Power Lane Change"…
There's a New Mexico version too…
ROTFLMAO!
He shoots…he scores…
Libby Jew…Isn't there some awful television programming you should be putting minimalist effort into…?
Yeah right thanks for the laugh. Like they are going to belong to the party that is for regulating them.
Wall Street is all the GOP have for donors.
Get regulation back to were it was before the disaster known as Reagan came along. When need to get back to FDR days.
More stimulus money? Trying to incite rioting? Just in time for martial law & election day.
Do you realize that would be 'less' regulation, not more?
Facts are not your friends. http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/blogs/b...
But, things are changing. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/arti...
No, it's not. http://net.gop.com/RNCDonors/
Go ahead and find us the wall street donors.
In that 1874 Supreme Court case (Minor v. Happersett), they said the following, which is very similar language used by Vattel in his 1758 Law of Nations definition of natural born citizen (born in the country and to citizen parents):
"At common-law, with the nomenclature of which the framers of the Constitution were familiar, it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives, or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners."
To be a natural born citizen of the US, you have to have been born in the US to parents who were both US citizens at the time of your birth. So, even if Obama was born in Hawaii, he is not a natural born citizen because his father (Obama Senior) was not a US citizen at the time of Obama Junior's birth. And it would not have mattered if Obama had later become a US citizen, for it is Obama Junior's status at the time of birth that matters.
Wow the more time you spend surfing WND & FreeDUMB Works the dumber you get.
Wall Street knew in 2008 the GOP were going to lose big time and they did. Wall Street is now going back to its roots and gambling the GOP can make a come back.
Kev,
Have I mentioned lately that I admire you….and that brain of yours?
Hooked On A Feeling is gonna be stuck in my head all day. Whereas Mr Garden Gnome with a spastic colon, will not.
Please, do carry on, good sir, carry ON (oh, wait…now its Kansas…"carry on my wayward son……")
Happens in NC, SC and VA…suffered them all….my heart goes out to you both, truly it does…but hey- all our beaches are belong to us
Okay- show of hands- who is NOT working today?
Yeah…what I thought….we're ALL FLIPPIN WORKING TODAY! (damn that ornery paint…I'll have a limp all week)
Don't get me wrong, I enjoy a day off, but give me a decent reason…Easter, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Veterans Day, Christmas (and no, I will NOT call it a winter…whatever), my birthday (oops, how'd THAT get in there LOL)…but Labor Day? <eye roll> no. We all "labor"…we all get days off from labor- why do we get a "special" day to celebrate a "day off from working"…for the love of little green apples…if you HAVE a job, celebrate it by…GOING TO WORK!
Ahem…my apologies. The pixie-induced rant is over. I blame it all on that ornery paint…
Bless you for your rescue work! Anyone that volunteers to help animals in need has my utmost respect.
And Cowpoke…braised is the best ;P (smartass! and don't you have a golfer to lasso? LOL)
Thanks, Pix, you're pretty clever in your own right. (Blushing from embarrassment) Rahm had me pegged, I 'm afraid. ;o)
You said it so succinctly, Rainmaker…hope, and trepidation, all in one post. And (as usual) I agree with every word. I want to lean towards the hopeful side, but pollyana, I ain't. <sigh> All we can do is make sure ALL of our voices are loud, clear, and unswerving in this message. Will it work? There's the rub. And that's where the hope comes into play.
Faith. I think it will boil down to faith. If we do all we can to get our message across…then we hold dear to our faith.
Why would two reliable sources that don't filter the news make me dumber?
And how many 1099 forms will you be filling out for the IRS this year?
The GOP lost their way and deserved to be fired. It's just a shame the libs happened to have had a marxist of muslim heritage up against our very poor candidate.
We already have food ration cards. Food stamp EFT cards.
But it doesn't have the 'brought to you by Obama' insignia yet.
But it was brought to us by the liberal policies that kept us from making our own money!
Our crew worked today, in fact they're still working. Corn-man gave them Sat and Sun off and told
them Labor Day meant you labored on that day, LMAO….I kid you not. It might not sit too well since
all their kin are pulling a big drunk, I'm sure. They lay around all winter on OUR dime so he has a ten-
dency to be somewhat demanding and definitely overbearing especially with the uh, uh. non-Ameri-
can holidays. When they hint for Cinco-de Mayo off, he tells them, "you're in the USA now son, we
don't take off for MX holidays, if you want May 5th off move back to MX", LOL.

Facts are not their friends.
So, Obama spends millions keeping it out of court to be heard on it's merits.
NONE.
Now get to paying your taxes we need to pay off Bushy's debts.
Maybe your side will run the QUITTER next time that should make for a lot of laughs for us Liberals on our way to Victory Lane again.
@ idiot sailor u r entitled to your own opinion. not your own facts.. but im sure you run into that alot
Faith. That most precious of quantities…
Well, after his pathetic, lame address from the Oval Office, Obama popped a Verbal Viagra pill and went off to address the Union syncophants! He was fired up alright; promising all the taxpayer contracts they could imagine, and "swearing" that they wouldn't raise the deficit "in the long run"…..Notice the cute phrase.How long? Oh don't get into details. It is sad to see the once proud and honorable labor movement reduced to being slaves to the political leaders. I was once union, until I realized that my dues weren't for my benefit, they were for padding the power and pockets of the union bosses. No Mas!! You union people are now used to prop up those who will betray you for their own benefit, and your children and grand children will pay the price!!!
You've created more private sector jobs than our government ever will
It looked like he had a hair cut and dye job. Also what was with his eye brows? They didn't look any more real than his smarmy smile.
We'll have them paid off long before we can touch Obama's spending.
He quadrupled Bush's spending. Why don't you mention that more often?
And then again maybe not.
Such a childish, stupid and ignorant remark to make!
LOL…"GTFO" is soooo much fun to rant, ain't it, my Texan born friend?
No Corona with lime for you my leeetle freeeendz…you're gainfully employed, be grateful. Not many can claim that. Its amazes me how people lose sight of that "tiny" fact <snort>
