Yeah, I just love this young generation of morons who have no idea what the bill on a baseball cap is for.

Thor: I guess I should have written a caption about the irony of this guy shading his eyes from the sun while he has a perfectly good awning on the cap he chooses to wear backwards.

Is that young man saluting or hitchhiking? I fail to see the connection. Unless you’re trying to say politics is a game and even though your team has the right line up and been on a winning streak, there still is that chance you might end up losing one now and then. At least in baseball one of the teams usually wins unlike Congress which has had more meaningless ties than the ones Dedrick use to collect.

There are a couple of thoughts to ponder on. Have any of the politicians in Washington offered to give up any of their salary or benefits to help the balance the budget? Also, I am amazed at the millions that politicians raise during election campaigns. In the last presidential election the candidates were raising millions of dollars each week. I wonder if the national debt be reduced substantially in no time if those people would give that kind of money to reduce the national debt instead.

Torches and pitchforks! Torches and pitchforks! I agree with you on this one! If you remember back in the 50′s, a few farmers from the Volga and Arlington area got in trouble for throwing rotten eggs and hitting the mark which was good ol’ Ezra Taft Benson, secretary of agriculture. Now it’s time to remember our senators and congress person with a few rotten eggs and tomatoes when they show up this fall in homecoming parades and the like. Throw in a few boos and catcalls and raised middle fingers. No one gets hurt! Oh, their over indulged pride may sting a little. But, they’ll soon be comforted with the big dollars from corporations who have kept the little people in their place…at minimum wage and with no health insurance. But hell, corporations just love take out Chinese. It’s cheap!

If the 2.8 trillion in value T-bills in the Social Security fund would be honored, Social Security would be fine . The thievery of the fund surplus made the Lower taxes for the wealthy possible . We will honor the T-bills held by the Chinese but apparently not the T-bills owned by American workers. Those lower top tax rates must be protected at all cost. By the way forget the argument that jobs can only be created by the rich. The rich buy existing firms,merge the firms and fire the excess employees or send the jobs to China.
