		<description>Actually the &#039;too big to fail&#039; money given to Chrysler, GM was a &#039;bail out for unions&quot;.  Had these companies not been unioned by the UAW Obama would have kicked them to the curb.</description>

		<description>jeff;  you are sooo right on target.  a city could save millions, by cutting back to a minimum fire and police force, that doesn&#039;t respond to &quot;help, I&#039;ve fallen and i can&#039;t get up&quot; calls, but only responds to &quot;help, fire&quot; calls, or &quot;help, I&#039;m being assaulted&quot; calls.  Our fire and police departments are now just revenue agents, police give out tickets, and firemen inspect businesses for violations of code only they know.  go to your next town meeting and ask the mayor, &quot;when was the last time our fire dep&#039;t squirted water on a fire, and how many times per year does that happen?&quot;  then divide the fire dep&#039;t budget by that number, and ask yourself if any 10 houses in your city are worth that much.  beaurocracies are built by fear, and are usually only shrunk through war.</description>

		<description>Unions are communist organized Pyramid Schemes. 

In early, and you get everyone below your level to pay you. The Game is to keep rising through the many levels of the game pyramid to get more and more layers of the Scheme to filter their dollars upwards towards you. 

Rules enforced by leg breakers and hit men. 

So, think Amway run by M13 and sanctioned by Congress. 

That&#039;s &quot;unions&quot;.</description>

I heard Obama&#039;s support for his healthcare dropped 30 points among the under-30 crowd when they found out they would go to jail if they didn&#039;t buy health insurance for x number of thousand $$ per year.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;She also said money could be used to preserve public-sector jobs such as firefighters, police and health-care providers.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Police and firefighters are always the first to be used as a scare tactic by local govt. for tax increases...Since the number of fires is way down in the last 32 years, maybe we don&#039;t need so many of them?
&lt;blockquote&gt;Rates of reported fires per 1,000 population fell even more sharply than total fires
over the past three decades.
According to the U.S. Census, the resident population of the US grew 38% from 1977 to
2008. Figure 2 shows that the rate of fires per 1,000 population fell 68% from 14.9 in
1977 to 4.8 in 2008.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&quot;And yes, I’m talking to you, GOP Rep. Paul Ryan — now a Johnny-come-lately critic of TARP after having voted for the monstrosity last year&quot;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Mebbe he&#039;s just looking to run with John F. Kerry on the &quot;For It Before I Was Against It&quot; ticket.</description>

		<description>Here is something I wish Michelle would look into :
When the Mexicans go to the Embassy to get thier Matricular Consular Cards, are they made to Register as Democrats at the same time?
This question has been bugging me for YEARS!
Ever since I seen that Portable Consular Bus at a High School in LA some years ago. It does sound like something the DNC would do, in return getting them Amnesty... What do you think?</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Reminder of GOP Rep. Paul Ryan’s emotional Chicken Little appeal for TARP on the House floor: 

“Doing nothing is the worst thing we could do!”&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I think that was also one of Tiger&#039;s pick-up lines when a hot chick played hard to get.</description>

His horrible policies may be catching up with him. Even the way over weighted polling results of the liberal new networks were not able to save him from the &quot;Lame Duck&quot; zone of below 50% of approval.
