It is called blind partisanship...

I do not see it as a republican issue though.

I see it as out of touch, old fashioned fundies who have been in power too long.

Back in our infancy, you served your time as a representative of the people, then went back to your farm, or press, or tannery, or whatever your real job is.

Government was never intended to be a full time job by our founding fathers.

I want term limits on senate and house members, no lifelong insurance benefits that equal 84k a year per congress/house member, and half the salary.

This should not be a livelyhood, but a sacrifice.

And you wonder why I keep buying ammunition?
(I feel homeland security on me now, oh boy I am in trouble for saying that)

Only half? I once listened to a congressman actually say that they needed to have the high salaries so they could attract the "best and brightest". I see how well that's worked so far.

The only way they can justify that they are the only people in the country still getting raises, Steve.

The Banks like to use the same excuse when they take bailouts, and still give out hundreds of millions in bonuses to execs that damn near sunk them. (if not for our bribed congress and house)

EDIT: I hope this hurricane obliterates me, I am so sick of trying to fight this crap (to mockery or no avail). This unwinnable fight against a government for the corporations, by the corporations.

Soop can play this game too!

So Romney hires all his friends to "so called" clean up. Yet cover real home owners in more red tape than they can manage alone. To the point they need a lawyer to litigate? Kinda like Dick and his Halliburton, I wonder how much they got to kill brownskins.... How much will I have to spend for aid, do I have enough? I doubt it, Romney is too rich to understand my plight. Yeah, I can point my finger to the "R's" too.

Yubba, have you ever been in a federal disaster area before? I doubt it, living in inland hicksville usa.'


A merciful tornado to trash your trailor would change your opinion.

I am sorry, but politicizing a (natural) national disaster is uncouth, and I am ashamed more are not trashing you for it. I am disgusted by most of this board ATM.

Maybe if it was your house floating off the foundation....
Typical republican, use fear to invoke feelings, rather than outright actions, spare me....

Sorry, I did what I critisized Yubba for, I made it partisan, I admit it. I am sorry.Points I made still stand though.

I think you could classify just about all of his threads as one.

Yeah Merritt Island is a little bit inland from Cape Canaveral I lived here for twenty some odd years, in 04 I rode every hurricane out here,, I rode hurricane Charlie out in the cab of a semi,,after that I worked for a roofing supply company and yes most of the east coast of florida was a disaster area blue tarps as far as the eye could see,,, so you're going to get a wind storm,, when you ride a cat 2 hurricane out come talk to me. and yes my thread are disaster areas because libs can't understand freedom. oh that reminds me time to update Progressive Liberalism mental disorder thread.
