It seems people are easily bought these days. Maybe an epic financial collapse would be just the right medicine for America. That’s when you find out what people’s true allegiances are.

Goes with the saying or warning : What the government gives the government can take away.

This is why I have a problem reading WND and CNS.
Seems they both have the ability to write sensational headlines but are divorced from reality or have their own reality.
I’d hardly think that taking on this position a year or two ago “recent”, implying that it was a pay back for hush money.?

Sounds like that do-nothing payoff job Michelle had at the Chicago hospital just because Barry was a US senator and was able to squeeze some money out of the federal budget for said hospital. Remember that?

And then maybe this dumpy hag will buy some clothes for herself, instead of helping herself to the rag bag. Alll of this is just rotting, stinking garbage, with a cast of players who sold their souls to corruption and the socialist oboma. It makes you want to vomit...watch out obozo, the projectile vomit is coming YOUR way.

“There just seems to be something in the air which I havent felt for a long time.”
Like the disappearance of about a billion people of the face of the Earth perhaps...who knows the timing?
But yeah, something major is about to blow. I think it will be the revelations of the whole set up of running weapons to Israel’s enemies and how President “Shuck and Jiver” can’t keep the facts hidden anymore!

This is payback for David P.’s testimony.
The media is in the tank for Obamugabe.
No one outside the conservative community will say a peep.

"The funding of the CFBP, which comes from the Federal Reserve, is not subject to congressional oversight."
She works in the gilded palace of sin. Her paycheck is not signed by the Treasurer of the United States which is what Federale "workers" get. Her paycheck is signed by Ben Bernanke or whoever signs the paychecks at the Federal Reserve. Which is a private bank with some limited personnel appointed by the President to give it a veneer of accountability to the American people. But the people the Federal Reserve really answers to are the major banks that hold stock in it Thank you very much for that information.
Her friend, the newly elected MA Senator, Elizabeth Warren, appointed her to this cushy job.
Thick as thieves, these demonic-rats.

The Washington game is grotesquely corrupt, no doubt. This stuff goes on at the state and county level too.
I remember reading in a US history text book in high school decades ago how the patronage system provided the means for parties to give their operatives jobs between elections—and thus made a robust democratic system possible. Ha!
