Pajamas Media » Suggestions on How We Should Treat Our Congressmen

"Right now, we have all our legislators throwing around trillions of dollars and coming up with new laws to inflict on us (it’s going to be illegal now not to own health insurance; did they even have health insurance when the Founding Fathers were around?). And as we see with people like Charlie Rangel and Maxine Waters, these legislators just do whatever they want and act like they own the country. So basically we traded having one big, petty tyrant pushing us around for a bunch of little, even pettier tyrants all competing to push us around."

"It’s pretty simple: We treat all legislators like lying crooks, because they self-identified as such by running for office; normal people don’t desire to spend other people’s money. Right now, being a representative or a senator is a high-paying, prestigious job that any idiot could do (and some exceptional idiots have done it for years), but if there were a few more drawbacks to being a legislator, maybe the worst of them would stay away. And if they don’t, at least maybe they’ll stay in line more if we let them know we consider them to be the worst of the worst and are keeping an eye on them. Then perhaps they’ll listen to those of us who really are supposed to be in charge in this country, the ones who actually work for a living.

This is America: We don’t let tyrants push us around; we push them around. It’s time we remember that."

Treat them like the liars they are and FIRE THEM in November.

If You Like Higher Credit Card Bills - Thank Congressman Foster

"As a Freshman Congressman, Bill Foster joined with his liberal, doo-gooder buddies in Congress and decided to treat the credit card companies like a whack-a-mole game. In that, they passed the Credit Card Accountability, Responsibility, and Disclosure (CARD) of 2009."

"The court ruled in favor of a suit filed in June by researchers who said human embryonic stem cell research involved the destruction of human embryos.

Judge Royce Lamberth granted the injunction after finding the lawsuit would likely succeed because the guidelines violated law banning the use of federal funds to destroy human embryos."

HURRAY--a judge with backbone/a judge who understands the US Constitution/a judge who actually follows the law. THANK GOD.

How do you think our economy is REALLY doing?

Economic doldrums leave Americans in no mood for Obama’s liberal agenda | Washington Examiner

"The Arizona law and the ground zero mosque issues are not likely to be dispositive issues in most congressional races this year. But they are additional baggage for the Obama Democrats who find themselves, as the economy languishes, on the defensive on the issues they thought would win over the bitter clingers."

Put me (and a lot of people I know) in the "bitter clingers" category. At this point it's only prayer that will keep our psyches together--we pray we can hang on until November 2nd, and then pray our country won't go down the toilet with no-bama in charge until 2012 when we can vote him out of office.

Since when were demon-crats interested in reality? All they care about is getting and keeping power. At a certain point logic would dictate some shame on their parts--but they have no shame. Hmm, kind of psychopathic, eh?

"SPRINGFIELD — Gov. Pat Quinn’s chief of staff resigned Sunday after the Chicago Sun-Times posed questions about a probe of three politically oriented correspondences sent from his government e-mail account in possible violation of a state ethics law"

How do you know when no-bama is lying?

When his lips are moving.....
He just proposed "small business" legislation and said it won't increase the debt. Ya sure. And of course he insinuates the problems with unemployment are all the Republicans' fault. Sorry buddy, not buying that piece of crap. It's all yours no-bama.

And he's going on his 6th vacation of the year.....oh ya, he really relates to the folks in this country. MORON.

Hey no-bama--I thought your great stimulus plans fixed the economy?

We spent kazillions of dollars and people are STILL out of work.
Weekly Jobless Claims Post Surprise Jump, Hit 500,000 - CNBC

"New U.S. claims for unemployment benefits unexpectedly climbed to a nine-month high last week, government data showed on Thursday, yet another setback to the frail economic recovery.

Initial claims for state unemployment benefits increased 12,000 to a seasonally adjusted 500,000 in the week ended Aug. 14, the highest since mid-November, the Labor Department said."

One way to judge the economic scene is to drive down a major road. Yesterday I drove east on Rt. 64 here in the western suburbs. Time after time I saw empty stores in mini-malls--Charlestown Mall in St. Charles is a ghost town--lots of empty former "big box" locations--big commercial buildings that used to hold thriving businesses are empty. Things are pretty bad folks and they are not getting better.

FBI: Bank robber leaves debit card behind - Chicago Breaking News

FBI: Bank robber leaves debit card behind
August 17, 2010 12:15 PM | No Comments
A woman charged with robbing more than $11,000 from a Waukegan bank Monday was captured less than 40 minutes later after leaving, among other clues, her personal debit card on the teller's counter.

Kimberly Ramirez not only left her debit card, charging documents say, she wrote her demand note -- which read "give me what you got" -- on the back of a prescription made out in her name and left it at the Consumers Credit Union, 2750 Washington St., around 12:57 p.m.

When Waukegan police arrived at her apartment building at about 1:30 p.m., Ramirez was outside her unit and told police she'd locked herself out. Inside the apartment, police found almost $10,000 as well as a black hat, sunglasses and black purse identical to the ones worn by the bank robber, according to a criminal complaint.
Waukegan police also spotted a red vehicle that matched the description of Ramirez's getaway car and pulled it over. The driver told police he had picked up a woman at the credit union and had been paid $1,235 to drive her around, cash the police then recovered, according to the complaint.

Ramirez is not the first bank robber to leave her name behind. In Decemberf 2008, a man charged with robbing a Chicago bank wrote his demand note on the back of his own pay stub.

"For a country that's hurt, an economy that's limping, and a base that feels bruised, President Obama and his team would do well to descend from that high horse and put their feet back on the ground."

They're pinheads. They think the earth revolves around them--they have no clue how to run anything, how to do anything but campaign. They have no real skills. They're screwing our country into the ground. Every time I see another Prius or piece of crap car with an Obama sticker on it I yell--"So how's that hopey-changey thing working for ya? Out of work, scrambling to make your house payment or in foreclosure? Yep, probably. Idiots. Anyone who voted for this moron is an idiot.

American Thinker

"Putting it as politely as possible, the reckless corruption and ineptitude of this administration knows no bounds. There is nothing to be said for this carnival of clowns except that they must be voted out of office as soon as possible, followed immediately by a nationwide RICO investigation into their extensive, willfully destructive, corrupt activities. It seems apparent that nothing will stop these people short of jail."

"What is wrong with Chicago?"

Another child is killed in a predominantly black neighborhood in Chicago. Let's be honest folks, it's not white people or Chinese or Hispanics going into those neighborhoods and killing kids--it's black on black crime. That's the plain facts. Here's another horribly sad story of another black child (but the fact that she's black is irrelevant--except to point out the obvious situation that no one in Chicago wants to admit) who is murdered in her own neighborhood. So horribly sad.

GOPUSA » Commentary » Sowell: Cheering Immaturity

"One of the many disservices done to young people by our schools and colleges is giving them the puffed up notion that they are in a position to pass sweeping judgments on a world that they have barely begun to experience. A standing ovation for childish remarks may produce "self-esteem" but promoting presumptuousness is unlikely to benefit either this student or society."

Stimulus spending has killed the ‘reality based community’ | Washington Examiner
"The various economic “stimulus” proposals have, by all accounts, failed to pull the U.S. economy out of recession. Regardless of whether they’ve had a positive effect on jobs or the economy at large, at least one sector of America has been irrevocably damaged by the stimuli: the “reality based community.”

EIGHT THINGS GOD WON'T ASK WHEN YOU MEET HIM FACE TO FACE:
1. God won't ask what kind of car you drove. He'll ask how many people you drove who didn't have transportation.
2. God won't ask the square footage of your house, He'll ask how many people you welcomed into your home.
3. God won't ask about the clothes you had in your closet, He'll ask how many you helped to clothe.
4. God won't ask what your highest salary was. He'll ask if you compromised your character to obtain it.
5. God won't ask what your job title was. He'll ask if you performed your job to the best of your ability.
6. God won't ask how many friends you had. He'll ask how many people to whom you were a friend.
7. God won't ask in what neighborhood you lived, He'll ask how you treated your neighbors.
8. God won't ask about the color of your skin, He'll ask about the content of your character.

Check out this map to see what the "per capita" debt is in your state

Here in Illinois it's $1856. So if I send them a check for that amount they'll stop taxing me? YA SURE--this demon-crat run state will tax you if you stand, sit, die, live, run, walk, drive, skip, jump----get the point? They'll tax you for THINKING ABOUT TAXING. So what's the answer? STOP SPENDING MONEY ON STUPID STUFF like they do here and also on the federal level. Stop trying to pay for stuff that government should have no business being involved in.

So go to this link:  Your share of the state debt

Typical demon-crat-----SLIMEY!
