Babs, Babs, Babs! You're a washed-up lounge singer/actress. You're expertise is in singing other peoples words, or pretending. So please do us all a favor and STFU, Butt-Pipe!

What everyday government spending programs are we really ready to do without?

I doubt if she really wants to know the answer...

Imagine there's no legal system,
it's easy if you try
no military weapons, no free education,
below us no safety net programs

This version is as stupid as Lennon's (but his scans better).

Didn't you know that in DC money grows on trees.

Employees at my plant (defense contractor) will get the entire day off (paid for by the Feds) due to the designation of VA as a disaster area.

Our tax dollars at work. Or NOT.


BUMP

What is "Big Government?"

The one that decides to impose a $1.5 billion fine on your little company because you made it look bad on national television.

Where does this money come from?

It comes from the government- it's magic money!

FEMA didn't exist before 1979. Until the 1930's government help in disasters was limited to National Guard and Regular Army.

So how did we recover from the Chicago Fire, San Francisco Earthquake, Galveston Hurricane, etc?

Hey, Babs, why not give all of YOUR money to the government?

Not necessarily. Remember, she found her music to be boring.

"This is what government is supposed to do."

No it's not. Taking care of your basic needs is your responsibility, short of that, it is the responsibility of your fellow man to freely help you. Government is supposed to shut up, sit back, and defend the country.

Hey Babs....It's PRESIDENT Bush.....yes, PRESIDENT Bush. You may not like it, but he's our PRESIDENT. For you not to address him in this manner shows how bitter you really are. Show some respect you upperclass snob.

I now return you to your regular programming.

I saw an interview with James Brolin on his role as Ronald Reagan. When asked what Barbra thought, he said she kept her mouth shut...and that's rare for her!!!!

Yes, her songs are boring, but not as much as her repeated ranting and raging.
