Remarks to Speaker John Boehner and Freinds

I see where John Boehner is back on the its our way or shut the country down road. It has been common knowledge that some of the new Tea Party group were not going to vote to increase the debt limit. You have argued for the raising of the debt limit in the past so we know you can get the between 78 and 100 of your own party votes you will need to get it done. You and your party are in a no win spot. If you don’t raise the debt limit your actions will increase the deficit by accelerating the time our interest rates will go up. If you raise it many of you will not get through your own primary. Please keep up your rhetoric about Medicare and Medicaid going. Your party has really missed th... Read More

Random Thoughts April 2011

I was watching Morning Joe today and when they were talking about the resurrection I missed the part about Ronald Regan. The congress had to take time to extend the committee that is handling the year long birthday party (Christ gets one day plus 52 Sundays). We were also told that the tax payers weren’t paying for the group, about thirty five times and it wasn’t costing the taxpayers anything. Not counting anything but wages for representatives 174000/1730 (number of day in a year x 2 to make 1/2 day) x 435 (number of representatives)=43,751 dollars with no opposition? Would the Republicans agree to work like the rest of us and only get paid by the Federal Government whe... Read More

Healthcare, Sarah, Foxx, Gun Control, Or Pay The Price

We have finally learned what Mrs. Palin really wants. We knew it all along, or should have. From her early days as a beauty contest participant Sarah was interested in attention and entertainment. She got into politics because it was where she could entertain and get paid for it. She knew that while not the beauty of a movie star or a contest winner,as a politician she was extremely stunning. After a short stint as a governor luck came her way. The party needing a vice scapegoat(someone to loose an election without hurting a possible future winner) came calling. What a break, to share national attention with a Jackie Gleason sized partner, getting to do a humorous interview with Kitty, hav... Read More

Devising a Real Heath Care Plan

Now the real heath care debate begins. After weeks of Representatives and Senators giving the same speech each time the committee met or on the floor it is time now to really build the bill. I want to give this notice to Nancy and Harry and all Republicans. Your all wrong!!! The right form is single payer. Before you can get to this you must reform Medicare. That really is the first step. You can set fair payment schedules, change the direction from quantity to quality, reduce the number of government agencies, create jobs, install a buy American policy, create real insurance as it was meant to be,eliminate the useless AMA and the extravagant insurance salaries, keep jobs and money in the US...
