Obama: Everyone has to have a haircut?
Does that mean “Duh Won” will be curtailing his golf outings and his vacations? Does it mean Mrs “Duh Won” Will be stopping all her traveling on tax payer money? Does it mean no more free flights for photo’s on Air 1? What exactly will you cutting oh great and powerful OZ?
You know I really do understand the Democrats position on this cut deal. They need to keep their voter pool full. If folks realized they could actually BE BETTER OFF and improve their way of life by WORKING, what would happen to the Democrats?
This entire thing is really pissing me off. Democrats COULD have passed a budget LAST year. But they knew they needed to make cuts to keep the public happy. What to do? Well, just wait and let the Republicans take the blame. In the old days that worked. Today? Well the Republicans would be seen as hero’s if they shut this runaway government down.
Shut it down if you can’t get 61 billion dollars in cuts. NO LESS. And to me it’s still short by about 2 TRILLION right now. If the Republicans compromise past the 61 billion we need a new crew in the House. PERIOD.

How about we cut his freakin’ vacations? Or stop awarding instant citizenship to any Tom, Dick or Lupe who has a kid here then sucks the gov teet? How about we stop spending 6 million bucks on stupid art pieces? How about we stay out of civil wars? How about we drop the U.N. like a bad habit? ow about the next time some country has a disaster we says sorry the bank of America is closed?

I agree wholeheartedly and completely here. I want a real job so bad I can taste it. It drives me bonkers with how many folks are just content to live off their social security. Hell, even if you truly need it cuz your screwed up, I say if you can manage to do anything, then do it. The quality of life goes up exponentially when you have something to do with your days and a paycheck doesn’t hurt either. Being a contributing member of society does wonders for a persons well being. Granted, some people are well and truly screwed mentally or physically but this is the exception not the rule.
Meaghan, I posted something exactly to that point a while ago. It involves the lack of the “Stigma” associated with welfare in this generation. In our generation it was looked upon as a bad thing. Today it’s a badge of honor. It became a way of life for so many. We’ve made it easier for folks to get what they want not what they need.
There is little incentive to remove yourself from state aid anymore. What is the incentive to get rich when you hear the “Liberals” blame the rich for everything wrong?
