I just heard last night that congress has voted itself a raise to the average sum of over 4000 dollars a year. Man, would I like that raise. Seems just when you have seen it all, the congress can't help themselves and go and do something stupid like this.
In this bad economy when banks, auto companies, soon to be the states are getting bailouts. When guys like Barney Frank and Chris Dodd can look down at the CEO's of GM, Ford, Chrysler, AIG and the others and tell them they should take a pay cut and forget about bonuses and put their companies first. These hypocritical morons give themselves a raise. When these same people can say the UAW workers are making to much compared to there counterparts at foreign owned plants, but yet they can tap us and them for another four grand a piece every year. How absurd is that? That raise should make all the UAW and AIG executives jealous. Hell I don't blame the AIG executives now for their expensive trips. Congress can raise their salaries that much, they have no right to say anything about golden parachutes.
Oh yes, thank you wonderful US citizens who voted these liberal, greedy, self righteous, pieces of garbage into office with their messiah for president. These are the ones we can thank. The ones who bought into "Change We Can Believe In" or "Yes We Can," thats who voted them in. Thank you so much, not have you only screwed us but you also screwed yourselves. Remember don't complain when things get worse because they will. Remember it's because of you and your brainwashing by The One that we are going to hell in a hand basket.
To Pelosi and Frank, I hope you choke on that four thousand dollars a year. If we as a people can find a way to impeach you and all the other sorry asses on The Hill we will do it. So much for change we can believe in. It sounds just like more of the same. We are tired of the way you think you can direct our lives and spend our tax dollars. We put you their to serve us not serve yourselves or your interests. It is our government not yours. If you will not treat it with respect and the understanding you serve us then get out and get out now. Otherwise we will find a way to get you out.
