Eighty years of federal income transfers have created a culture of dependency. Any serious spending cut must be a cut in “entitlement” programs, and no one who hopes to enjoy the perquisites of federal office dares to propose any such cut. Though Obama & Co. certainly deserve criticism for their selfishness, hipocrisy, and lack of patriotism, the fault truly lies with the beggars who compose the majority of our electorate.

By the way, the Republican hypocrite who is running against the statist Democrat to misrepresent me in Congress, is talking about the need to cut spending – but mentions ONLY reforming “earmarks”, that 0.001% of the federal government of money that is slated to be spent anyway.

from the DC PR department:
This is “the most recent evidence demonstrating that President Obama is keeping his promise to pull our troops out and put an end to American involvement In Iraq by the summer of 2010.”

Yeah, and I’ve got some swamp land to sell ya. Sheesh. How can newspapers write such drivel and not wonder why readership is vanishing? What are these journalists smoking?
