No Newsbites This Weekend

Busy weekend... plus... what's there to say?

Once again the American People are betrayed by the Dempublicans and the Republicrats.

No doubt when the final shameful deal is reached between Boehner, Obama, Reid, McConnell, and Pelosi it'll put a band-aid over the pieced artery of our economic lifeblood that will have to do till...

(*SIGH*)

...you guessed it...

(*PAUSE*)

...after the 2012 Elections.

See, folks, this way both sides can keep on talking about what they're supposedly going to do while muddying the waters about what they've actually done in such a way as to (they hope) distract blame away from incumbents of both rancid parties.

Will it work?

Well... to paraphrase intern-banger and creditably accused rapist as well as presidential pardon seller William Jefferson Clinton, it all depends upon what the meaning of "work" is.

(*SHRUG*)

You folks understand that our credit rating has already been formally downgraded by China, right? Well, I wouldn't be surprised if Western raters follow China's lead - prior to the November 2012 U.S. elections that is. (Perhaps the politicians can bribe or threaten the biggest players to hold the line... to keep up the charade... but I wouldn't count on it.)

Republicans are so damned stupid...

(*SIGH*)

They had Obama and the Dems just where they wanted them... and then... they threw it all away.

They could have kept pushing the fact that the federal government borrows 42 cents out of every dollar spent. People understand that figure. It's transferable in terms of comparison... a family bringing in $58,000 a year and spending $100,000 a year... year after year... no balancing of the family finances - let alone repaying principle on the ever growing debt - in sight.

But, no... the Republican establishment - the elites - couldn't trust that the American People would reward them for telling the truth and acting upon it.

These pieces of garbage could have called the media and the Dems on the "default" lie rather than play along and thus confuse the American People into believing the federal government doesn't take in many times the amount of revenues needed to keep current on all debt and on top of that continue sending out Social Security checks and pay for our active military and veterans.

Lie after lie after lie told by the Dems and the media and by and large... the Republicans not only didn't expose the lies, but indeed, more often than not bought into the false premise by accepting the Democrat's and media's false definition of "default."

No one called for straightening out U.S. government finances over one fiscal year, but Republicans could have insisted - with just the House in their control - on a level of spending restraint that would have over the course of four or six or eight years put our country to rights with regard to spending no more than comes in as revenues while at the same time beginning to pay down the debt.

Anyway, folks... I spent all afternoon food shopping... it's off to the pool now!

God bless...

...and tomorrow we'll pick up where we left off!
