What I meant was, a shooting star. Now, a meteorite would be entirely different!

There not a govt. budget anywhere that doesn't have at least 20-30% fat that could be trimmed quite easily. But, that's not the agenda of the hard/far left.
They want to go/cut right to the bone. Right to the necessary items so they can bad/pr us one more time using the DBM.
I can just hear it now.
Well you Republicans demanded budget cuts so we are giving them to you. With never a mention that the sequester was their idea to begin with and that they are cutting all the wrong budget items.
They know how to cut budgets. But communism tells them not to do it that way its not their agenda.
Remember if your agenda is to destroy the country you cut key items that people need exactly the way they are doing. Then you lie about what you are doing.
That's what is going on. Our problem is we have no leadership no one to stand up on a national podium and yell to every that we are all being screwed by the commies in office.
But when he is carrying our water for a change lets give him a chance to do the right thing.
Down the line however if he screws us over again, as many of us are afraid he will do, he will have to be Marcoed again.
AS RNC head Prebius is more or less forced to get along with everyone in the party.A tough if not impossible job.
If he swings our way lets give him credit. Just like we will slap him down in short order if he goes rino on us.
Politics are never pretty. But, we see what happens if we are on the losing end.As Rush says, its always better to win.
Brilliant idea,trouble is we may need her on the ticket instead.
I watch CBS Sunday Morning, it’s Americana, a nice slow show for a Sunday morning.
Why not both?
She could do the RNC Chair for a year or two, and then pass the torch to another, and run for office.
I would LOVE to see it. She’d kick ass with the Chair, and use it to launch her campaign.
NOt a bad idea at all it could work.
Theres $57 billion...BILLION stuck in the DoD budget for Foreign Aid. WTF???
That $57B could be used...no SHOULD be used for the soldiers.
Were closing the OR at Landstuhl Army Hospital every Friday because of the sequester...soldiers that need surgery cant get it if its Friday...but we can sneak foreign aid money into our budget?
Heres a novel idea...quit baselining the stimulus money into the budget every year. Yup that one time need it today to save the country bit of pork that was supposed to provide shovel ready jobs is now a part of every FY budget proposed. Right there is a great way to cut wasteful spending from the budget...but you know that slush fund to the Dem machine wont ever get cut off now that its been started.
Instead were gonna tell the military to BOHICA.
The ratio is tail-to-tooth when it should be tooth-to-tail.
(The last Cheney DOD budget was probably $295 billion.)
OMG!
I actually just saw incontinent Bob deliver a PSA for the Crones and Colitis Foundation.
