Default MORONS

Dear All 535 voting members of the Congress:


It is now official: You are all morons.

The U.S. Postal Service was established in 1775 - you have had 234 years to get it right; it is broke.

Social Security was established in 1935 - you have had 74 years to get it right; it is broke.

Fannie Mae was established in 1938 - you have had 71 years to get it right; it is broke..

War on Poverty started in 1964 - you have had 45 years to get it right; $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to "the poor"; it hasn't worked.

Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965 - you've had 44 years to get it right; they're broke

Freddie Mac was established in 1970 - you have had 39 years to get it right; it is broke

Trillions of dollars in the massive political payoff called the TARP bill of 2009 shows NO sign of working.

And finally to set a new record:

"Cash for Clunkers" was established in 2009 and went broke in 2009! It took good dependable cars ( that were the best some people could afford ) replaced them with high priced ( people who couldn't afford to are now making payments ) mostly Japanese models so a good percentage of the profits, from the sales, went out of the country. And lastly, the American taxpayers are now going to be dinged with paying for yet 3 billion more dollars of our governments experiments to make our wallets even thinner.

So with a perfect 100% failure rate and a record that proves that "services" you shove down our throats are failing faster and faster, you want Americans to believe you can be trusted with a government-run health care system? 15% of our economy? Are you crazy?

Truly, the inmates are running the asylum! And what does this say about voters who put such pond scum in office? Maybe we need to let others in on this brilliant record before 2010 and just vote against incumbents.

Worry about your own country SH.

We'll take care of ours. And probably later yours.

Good post SUBMAN1

Even I while agreeing with the subject matter for the most part tire of cut and paste chain email postings.

Sure, it probably stems from a chain email, but it is quite a poignant point being made here.

Frankly, what pisses me off most is how the people supposedly so much in the corner of the poor are always legislating things that make it more difficult for them.

Lol. "Poignant point". The only point to chain emails is either related to scammers from Nigeria or some political party desperately trying to get people to convert to their side of the issue... or both.

True that. Politicians are always in the game to look out for themselves; to some extent, at least. Some more than others, some less than others. Few fall into the latter, however.

While I don't disagree, that is a pretty broad ad hominem response you're making.

Sure these are from people attempting to sway others to their point of view. But if you see that fact alone as why the point is wrong, you have bigger intellectual issues than Subman posting his junkmail box on here...

Indeed. Frankly I think the world would be better if "politics" and "power" could somehow be separated.

Haven't you heard the road to hell is paved with good intentions?

Indeed. I think I get your point, even though I think Samuel Johnson's point was a tad different... (Athough, from what I understand, he isn't the first to say this quote, but it is attributed to him.)

Thread closed. This is more of the same political spam that Subman1 has been posting of late. He has been warned, they serve no purpose.
