Todays the day!

If you make 200,000 a year then I can see why you wouldnt want your taxes raised, you couldnt afford it.

It rears its ugly head again!

Don, you and I need to spend a little time together in a bass boat, then followed up by several, several cold Miller Lites just before we hit the Wordford.

I find it funny we keep feeding and housing those who don't want to work. I'm not talking about the people who have fallen on hard times and need a little help so they can get back on their feet. How can you spot these people just look for the people who have several generations on assistance and never had a job.

Ryan...I'm with ya! A few cold ones and a tap on the old fishing line makes for a good day. When do the stripers get around the warm water discharges in the river?

$200,000 I don't make that in 4 years. The people that I have talked to that voted for BO wish they could have their vote back! They know they screwed up big time, they admit it and are sorry that they did.

Don I don't know I have never been down there and fished for them but I am willing to give it a try.

Ryan,
I know of several myself that voted for him and they admit they messed up. Simply put he won because the GOP messed up. The media voted this guy in and he could never have won anyother way. He seems to know that so he and the Libs are pushing so much junk down out throats at such a fast pace that we don't have the time to digest it.

The Libs could have had a Muslim named osama (theres a joke in there some where) running and they still would have won. But now since this guy is half black he is some sort of strong, smart leader. Naw just the puppet that the libs chose to be the figure head.

Ryan we need to get ole Mhall to fill us in on the river bite!

By the way Miller Lites and Woody, dang Ryan you just named my two other girlfriends.

What about the 2 in 10 that are laid off right now who have always worked and paid taxes . Now the 58 year old loses his job no health care sometimes no life insurance he has a heart attack due to the stress goes in the hospital lives for 3 days and dies. The family is left to pay the bills as best they can and hopfully have life ins to bury him. And they have to carry on with out him or his income. I can see why you don't care its not you.

I hope the 58 year old put some money away, instead of PISSING it away on fun stuff.

I'm 43, and have put 10 - 15% away since I was 18..............AND don't give me that GARBAGE that you cannot...........WHEN I started putting 15% away, it was when I was DELIVERING PIZZA........I still put it away.

I've got two kids, have eaten my share of tuna helper and SPAM, and still managed to put enough away to live comfortably when I retire.

What I don't have is:

* I don't have a $40,000 truck with a NOTE
* I don't have a $30,000 boat with a NOTE
* I don't have a $100,000 house with a NOTE
* I don't have a $50,000 equity line of credit MAXED out.
* I don't have a $10,000 dollar credit card MAXXED out.
* I don't have 10 store credit cards MAXXED out.

I've NEVER been on a cruise, or to Hawaii, or to Mexico, or to Europe, or out West, or about a BILLION other things I'd like to do..........

If I don't have cash in hand........I DON'T DO IT.

SO.................58 and BROKE...........NO FREAKIN EXCUSE.

Sorry, but PERSONAL responsibility is a lost idea on Americans today.

Later,

Geo

Geo, you nailed it !!

Lack of planning on your part does not make it an emergency on my part.

While some of my wife's family went on cruises, trips to Las Vegas, etc, and then complained that the government didn't "give" them enough, I wanted to puke. Oh, they still come to me for "carry over loans" because of their lack of planning. It's worth $100.00 to me to not see them for 6 months.

Tyme you always make me laugh brother, I love your outlook on life, you are right up my alley for sure, lol.

[bassin_bug]

Call me insensitive, selfish, arrogant or what ever but I DON'T CARE about the 15 million who don't have healthcare as described by these fools. I don't care even just a little bit. Judge me as a jerk if you will but when I go to work and agonize at times over construction deadlines, my healthcare bills, my family and their bills, my daughter and her private school bills, my mortgage and personal life do I ever wish the gubment would help me? Nope!

I'm sick and tired of anyone thinking I should care about slack, low rent, illegals, welfare taking or gubment assistance abusing folks. When do the law abiding, American way system following folks get a break? All we get is you gotta pay for this group of people, you can't think bad about this group, just grin and bear it we are the richest people in the world, you got more to give. It's getting old....sad part is that people in this country are buying into it if their political party backs the idea.

It's a game and who actually wins???

There is a family of THREE who lives in the area near my place in Alabama. The father is as healthy as a horse but he thinks the world owes him a living because he was in the Army, in peacetime; he saw no combat duty, and was discharged with a BCD. He came home with the attitude the world owed him a living because he "served his country." All he did was go to a regular job for 4 years. His wife lay around all day, stuffing her face and watching TV; he joined her and ballooned up to about 350 lbs, she made it to about 400 lbs., their daughter, now 28 is an able-bodied recovering (?) drug addict. EACH person in that house has been declared disabled and each person is drawing $1,700 per month in Social Security disability benefits. Their total household income is $5,100 PER MONTH. She had part of her stomach removed and now weighs 229 pounds and makes no attempt to find a job and get off Social Security. They have parties about every 3-4 weeks, grill steaks, the booze flows freely and have recently purchased a new Chevy car.

I thought all you hard working people would like to know where your tax dollars are being spent. I do a slow burn when I see those people and think about my husband going to his job every day, some days he doesn't feel like getting out of bed because he has heart disease. When he comes home from work, he looks like he will collapse from exhaustion. He couldn't work if he had to do physical labor but he has an office job. The idea of applying for disability income has never crossed his mind.

I don't feel sorry for any of the lowlife, able-bodied people who make a conscious choice to live off the system rather than get off their behinds and go to work. They are not my responsibility.

These are some evil people....Reid and Dodd both had a hand in and defended the mortgage debacle and now they are all of a sudden smart? Naw, they are trying to appeal to the cry babies out there. Hopefully they get beat in the next election.

We can only hope.
