Readers Comment; Congressional #Pork to #Obama to Government
The following comments were provided by our readers. In some cases, the comments may be funny while showing forth truthful insights. The comments are separated by dashed lines:
----------------
Technologically challenged! Barack Obama has put out an ad that simple minded John McCain cannot use a computer. Well guess what; Barack cannot land a jet plane on an aircraft carrier at night. John can.
----------------
Corporate Sponsors! After watching these politicians trying to vote on this "bailout" for the last week and adding senseless #pork to it, Congress members should wear uniforms like NASCAR drivers so we can identify their corporate sponsors.
----------------
“Government’s view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.” — Ronald Reagan
----------------
“Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.” — Ernest Benn
----------------
“[A] wise and frugal government... shall restrain men from injuring one another, shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government.” — Thomas Jefferson

Politicians - Change...Change...Change!!!
Not long ago I read a joke ... It said all the politicians running for president are promising change to the American people. We send them billions and billions of tax dollars and they send us the change. Funny? Not really; there is too much truth in it to be funny.
They all promise change. How about if they run on a promise of restoration rather than change. A restoration that would take us back in time to a place where things ran better, smoother and life was more enjoyable. Change? That, in truth, is what they have been giving us all along.
We used to have a strong dollar ... Politicians changed that.
Life used to be sacred ... Politicians changed that.
Marriage used to be sacred ... Politicians are changing that.
We used to be respected around the world ... Politicians changed that.
We used to have a strong manufacturing economy ... Politicians changed that.
We used to have lower tax structures ... Politicians changed that.
We used to enjoy more freedoms ... Politicians changed that.
We used to be a large exporter of American made goods ... Politicians changed that.
We used to be an openly Christian nation ... Politicians changed that.
We used to teach patriotism in schools .. Politicians changed that.
We used to educate children in schools .. Politicians changed that.
We used to enjoy freedom of speech ... Politicians changed that.
We used to enforce LEGAL citizenship .. Politicians changed that.
We used to have affordable food & gas prices ... Politicians changed that, too.
... and one could go on and on with this list.
What hasn't been changed? Politicians are promising to "change" if you will elect them. When is America going to open their eyes and look at what we once were and from where we have come and say, "Enough is enough"?
