? Secession?

I don’t worry about my mortgage balance. Pretty soon I’ll be able to pay it off with just one wheelbarrow of cash.

Yeah, but the wheelbarrow will cost you $4,000,000,000.

Now wait just a minute....where is the vitriol for the American people who ELECT and REELECT these men, and are giving a commie like Hussein 80% approval ratings??????????????????????????

The constitution gives we the people the power to remove these cowards every 2, 4 and 6 years.

It’s shameful, and I would guess there are only about 20% of real Americans anymore.

I think we need to say that a little louder in case anyone missed it!!!

$5 Billion / 9000 Earmarks

When does this outrageous spending stop?!!!

[Baladas]

It’s over.

[murron]

So this is another stimulus bill? How is this one different, or is it? Why didn’t we hear about this before it was passed?

Right “Secession”...........

Among the earmarks was one sponsored by Rep. Howard Berman, D-Calif., who secured $200,000 for a "tattoo removal violence outreach program" in Los Angeles. Aides said the money would pay for a tattoo removal machine that could help gang members or others shed visible signs of their past, and anyone benefiting would be required to perform community service.

Rep. Mark Kirk, R-Ill., said the bill included at least a dozen earmarks for clients of PMA Group, a lobbying company now at the center of a federal corruption investigation.

Is “boost” another word for “stimulate”. Didn’t we just pass a Stimulate the Economy Bill? Is this a bill that is actually designed to stimulate the economy then, as opposed to just growing the government like the last one?

I’m game. I hear Charleston still has facilities set up in case this issue came up again.

[djsherin]

The GOP has responsibility to bear too.

So this is another stimulus bill? How is this one different, or is it? Why didn’t we hear about this before it was passed?

Yes, the son of Porkulus. The Congress pigs wanted to keep these bills under a trillion $$s as to not alarm the public so they give it to you what they think are in bite sizes.

Why didn’t we hear about this before it was passed?

And have debate? Pelosi : LoL!

[xcamel]

It’s really $10 BN if you include all the hidden stuff...

[xcamel]

Keep it up and the next RINO president’s name will be “Ben Dova”

[unixfox]

When does this outrageous spending stop?!!!

When WE take control of the country?

It's way past time!!! These asshats have stepped WAY over the line.

“We need earmark reform,” Obama said in September during a presidential debate in Oxford, Miss. “And when I’m president, I will go line by line to make sure that we are not spending money unwisely.”

$200,000 for tattoo removal.

These people have no shame. The federal government is TAKING money earned by several American citizens and using it for tattoo removal.

These idiots who voted for Obama and the Democrats will never get a clue.

[popdonnelly]

They do this, and then preach about fiscal responsibility. Like an alcoholic preaching temperance. Our government has becom a joke, and the joke is on us.
