People need to get mad! Good points, John... work on the delivery though...

This is where we are. We have a cap and trade bill which simply means we are going to trade"soot" futures. Guess who gets rich? Al Gore and GE. We have nationalized health care if the progressives in D.C. have their way. Congress will still have their fantastic care. Look they have kept Teddy alive. Barney AIDS free and Nancy in a new face every year. Now that is good health care. We the People will be lucky to get a band aide and a mercury laden light bulb. What a swell deal!

John Boehner thinks he's a powerful man, leading the house majority.

Thankfully the democrats still hold the Senate so he'll be mainly limited to cleaning up problems that were ironically caused way back when the president was a red meat and potato Republican.

Of course people forget Bush the cowboy was actually a blueblooded high class aristocratic Connecticut native.

According to the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics, Rep. Boustany has

received $1,256,056 from health and insurance interests since first being

elected in 2004. The total counts for more than 20 percent of all of his

fundraising.

Republicans want to keep everything the same. They dont have ideas just rhetoric. They had full control for the last 8 years and did nothing but harm to this country. Why does anyone listen to these incompetent lying neocons.

Republicans don't "get" anything!

As long as some big business "pads" their wallets, we'll all be stuck with inferior healthcare, and a dead economy........

Innocent hard-working families have a better handle on where the economy is at than dumb stock analysts, bankers, politicians, etc. Millions of families predicted things are getting worse & will continue to get worse & they are. The greedy bank execs (scum) & the greedy insurance company execs (thieves) want us to believe things are better so we go out & piss away money, take out whorehouse-loans & go back in debt. This is their solution-lie & say things are better so we'll follow like sheep.

If you knew how to tell or write a 'joke", then people would find humor in it. But perhaps they go over great in elementary school.

"If I were "mooching off your tax dollars," I couldn't pay for those items."

That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Now I'm starting to think you are about 8 yrs old.

The taxpayers hand these democrat and republican parasites $175,000 a year salary, plus $500,000+ expense account, plus a $5000 year automatic pay raise to tell us the democrats did it or the republicans did it, and that he / they have a better plan.

Here's a plan for these bums. Cut their salary down to 1/4 of what it is now. Cut their expense account to 1/10 what it is now and no pay raises for 12 years. Then limit their times in office to two terms. That's 4 years. Then boot 'em.

Democrats and Republicans, two sides of the same bad coin. Time for some new parties in D.C.

Out with these old self-serving control freak democrats and republicans.

Is Boehner-boy a bit, uh, boiled here?
