Re-elect NO One

Did you vote for ObamaCare? Hmm...Neither did I. We were never given the opportunity. Whether for or against, up or down, is irrelevant. We don't get to say.

We don't get a voice."'WE THE PEOPLE" now do what we're told.

Here's an idea I'd love to spread.

Have signs/banners made declaring 'RE-ELECT NO ONE' and post them in our yards every election until each and every one of these bozo's (Dems and GOP's) are gone. Let's see how an entirely new Senate/Congress might work out.

Just a thought...are you with me?

Fiscal Cliff Explained so Everyone can understand


Someone posted this on my fb page crediting “The Angel Clark Show”. I am a centrist, so I did not agree with everything on that page, but the message here is still thought provoking.

***********************************************

“Fiscal Cliff” put in a much better perspective.

Lesson #1

US Tax revenue $2,170,000,000,000
Fed Budget $3,820,000,000,000
New debt $1,650,000,000,000
Recent budget cuts $38,500,000,000

Let’s now remove 8 zeros and pretend it’s a household budget.

Annual family income $21,700
Money the family spent $38,200
New debt on the credit card $16,500
Outstanding balance on the credit card $142,710
Total budget cuts so far $38.50

Got it? OK, now…

Lesson #2

Here’s another way to look at the Debt Ceiling

Let’s say you come home from work and find there has been a sewer backup in your neighborhood, and your home has sewage all the way up to your ceiling. What do you think you should do?

Raise the ceiling or remove the shit?
