I know *exactly* what you mean. lol!
Except Big Brother is now taking down names of everyone who buys both of those.
The King is Naked, and if that upsets you to say so you are not grounded in reality. Happy-Happy-Joy-Joy like an airhead is no way to go through life.

Here, try some of this...
That ought’a dampen your enthusiasm....
Have you heard any of the new House Speaker’s tough budget cutting agenda?
ya..me neither!
We had a good run, but it’s over. There is no way the changes that need to be made will ever be made. We are bankrupt, and most people don’t care.
There are changes we can implement right now to bring the USA back. I suggest we do four things right now:
1. Start by cutting back the size of government by 30% now, and eventually somewhere between 50-60% in 7-10 years.
2. Simplify government regulations.
3. Aggressively clean up the excesses of Wall Street, starting with re-imposing the 1933 Glass-Steagall Act and banning high-risk investments like many hedge funds, derivatives, credit default swaps, etc.
4. Massively overhaul our national taxation system to reduce compliance costs and make it vastly more business friendly.
Perfect. :) So much there to work with......
1. There is nothing in life that is so serious you can’t find the humor in the situation.
2. When the duck forgets who feeds him, give his tail feathers a good shake.
3. Once everyone knows whose who in this arrangement, we can all be friends.
4. Always remember to sit on your porch with a good friend. It makes life easier.
I liked your story very much.
We all know what needs to be done ,, some of us realize that it just won’t ever be implemented.
Exactly. My pessimism is based on some cold hard realities:
1) We're a welfare state. 60% of the federal budget is spent on social entitlement programs. Coincidentally, only 60% of the budget is paid for by revenues - we have to borrow the other 40%. This means that social entitlements eat up every penny of revenue the government takes in that isn't borrowed. This leads to...
2) It's now impossible to stop being the welfare state described above because we've crossed the threshold where there are more people riding in the wagon than there are pulling it. People won't vote to get rid of their free stuff, period.
3) The republicans have the power right now to put a stop to all of this simply by refusing to raise the debt ceiling again, but they won't do it because of #2 above.
So yeah, I see no solution. We will not and can not change it by voting. We're already bankrupt, and we're going to continue on this path until we completely collapse.
But, i DO believe we are doomed.
I am 52 this year and I have seen no worse state of our nation economically, morally, or internationally.
And, there is zero happening to make it better, either morally, economically, or internationally.
in fact, all three rulers I mentioned are all going downward.
What I am sick of hearing is people claming that CONSEERVATISM IS WINNING! CHRISTIANITY IS SPREADING!
It isn’t, neither of them is, in fact, that is why the international is failing, too.
Conservatism may be more popular in it’s economic sense, but not in the moral conservative sense.
Knowing that Ann Coulter came out in defense of gays recently, can anyone honestly say that Conservatives are moral anymore?
Honestly?
Considering you can’t spell....why should we listen to you?
there is something wrong with you if you dont like pineapple with pepperoni pizza...
I'm NOT dead!!
Fruit on pizza is just wrong... so wrong in fact that not even bacon , banana peppers and sausage can atone for it.
God Bless!
