It’s disgraceful.
Term limits is the only answer to this. Didn’t the original constitution have term limits on it for congress?
Total BS... all of this.
Well, let’s see what’s today.. Oh yes... Unemployment will be 10% and the spin will start....
Obama’s numbers should hit -11 by a week from today.
You nailed it. Congress has no regard for anything other than it's own self interest. I have an acquaintance who is fairly high up on the food chain at a large corporation. It amazed me that when he traveled on business, they stocked the jet with donuts and sodas from a discount store. If they stayed overnight, they doubled up in rooms at a budget motel. (Not if they were of the opposite sex or the room only had 1 bed.) His point was twofold - Did it save a lot of money in the big scheme of things? No, but if everyone tried to be frugal where they could, you eventually wind up with big money. Also, it shows that you are trying to be cost conscious to the stockholders, even if the savings are minimal. I only wish our government would do the same. At some point our spending is going to have to be curbed. It would seem to me like eliminating excesses, fraud and waste would be an excellent starting point.---JM
