This will be saved and printed out to go along with the (apparently doctored) quote from Cicero

“The budget should be balanced, the treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt.”

Apparently the guote this derives from is:

“The arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed, lest Rome fall.”

I like both and can extrapolate the one from the other.

One of the best Meet the Press roundtables in a long time. Discussing real capitalist solutions.

Ohbummer just jinxed the women with his Go USA tweet. 1-1 tie.

Pray for America
