Wow, where does it end? I see where Obama is wanting to spend 50 billion on a infrastructure deal to put people back to work and kick-start the economy, which he first said the stimulus package was supposed to do. Putting folks back to work all sounds good but $50 billion, jeez, and you Obama zombies still blame everything on Bush.

But wait, the supreme leader had a plan to pay for it all. He's just going to cut the tax cuts to the big oil companies to pay for it all. Why not get a brain here, Einstein? You know what's going to happen if the oil companies lose their tax cuts? I'll tell you. The price of gas will jump to five or six dollars a gallon to make up for their losses. Doesn't take a scientist to figure that one out. Why not take all the non-violent free loaders out of the prisons and jails and put them out on the old-time chain gangs and let them fix the roads and bridges instead of sitting there day in and day out mooching off the rest of us.

Well, as Mr. Shirey from North Webster puts it, this is about all of the b.s I have to offer at this time. It's still a great thing about our country is, we can still say what is on our minds. But under the present administration, I wonder how long we will have that right?

Hope I didn't bore you too much this time, Mr. Shirey. You all have a nice day.
