Thanks for sharing. Thats great news.......... as long as the House of Representatives buys it.

its a total crock.....same way to try to scare the sheeple as they did in 99 and collect some overtime pay in the same swoop.

They get overtime? WTF

Too bad we went over the edge a while ago. Almost 17 trillion in debt?!?!:faint:
Yeah, let's hope it stops there. (We know it won't.) At least the Farm Bill did get passed and we don't have to shell out a 'wheel barrel of dollars' for a gallon of milk.

In the big picture they did very little. From the top down our government is failing. I am disgusted by their lack of ability and willingness.

Absolutely right!



Let's look at the broader picture... it's the American people that continue to elect, and then re-elect, ever more polarized legislators.

Oh but wait, theres even a bigger picture.......There aren't enough American people voting or getting involved.
We need to get the message out and motivate more Americans........create posters of all the faces of these irresponsible politicians and hold these bastards accountable!!

If more Americans get involved, the posters won't be needed. But I do agree that more participation will help.
