Tar, feathers, rails, rope, and trees. It’s the only viable solution any more.

The tragic thing is that this is only a small list of the ways our tax dollar is squandered.

Funny....I didn’t see all of the vacations and golf outings of the Community Organizer In Chief listed.

The expense of these activities has to equal the GDP of many States and countries.

#2 The U.S. Department of Agriculture gave the University of New Hampshire $700,000 this year to study methane gas emissions from dairy cows.

My study is done can I have the $$$$$? They do it a lot and cow farts stink.

Chicken feed. Not even worth mentioning. The Top 10 stupid things the Federal Government spends it’s money on are
1. Department of Agriculture
2. Department of Labor
3. FCC
4. Social Security
5. Medicaid.
ETC.

Checkout all these critical government programs above.

Reminds me of the lib/progressive that Cavuto interviewed on FNC just before the election who said that “No government program is wasteful because government spending on ANYTHING stimulates the economy”. Not kidding, they actually think that little of the money we earn that they want to take.

But.....Democrats tell us that the only way we can cut the size of government is to not have roads, firemen, or the Social Security that those hypocrite Republicans rely on.

According to Dick Morris, the congressman who gets this money is usually given 10 percent of it as campaign contributions. Other professions consider this to be money laundering.

I would put some of the Wee Wee's junkets such as his excursion to India and Indonesia in there somewhere.

Add to that the Wookie's trips (like her getaway to Spain), private flights for Boo the Wonder Dog, and cross town helicopter flights.

Then throw in Nasty Pelosi's private air force chauffeurs.

Must not forget salaries and benefits for government employees surfing Internet porn.

And how about all the wonderful bank bailouts? Don't you love letting the fat cats borrow money from the Treasury at 1.5 percent and reinvest it back in the Treasury at 3.5 percent and then pocket huge bonuses for brilliant management?

And what about all the toxic assets we purchased at full value which are now worth ... nobody knows but it is probably close to zero?

The fact is, the list is nothing more than a compilation of chump change made by amateurs.

I’d like to see if any of these were the result of earmarks (duh, like they weren’t all earmarks) and by who.

>> According to a shocking new report, U.S. taxpayer money is being spent to study World of Warcraft

Haha. What a waste. You can get shut-ins to study World of Warcraft for free. You could even charge THEM — many will study at the expense of their sex lives, careers, and actual human contact.

I am beyond the point where any government expenditure could surprise me.

where is Matthew Lesko and his Question Mark Suit when you need him?

[Dr. Scarpetta]

Thanks for posting this. It’s outrageous and easy for everyone to understand so I passed it along in e-mail.

Have a Merry Christmas...

We all know there is no possible way to cut spending other than reducing funds for Social Security, Medicare and the military.

[drypowder]

Not to argue about the order but # 1 ought to be the massive perks, pensions, medical insurance and so on these corrupt DC politicians keep giving them selves.
