“Here is a good idea for cities that want more revenue: Make a new law that prohibits parking on city streets overnight. They could hire people to work at night and go around the city looking for violators and issuing tickets for $25 to the violators. Judging by the amount of people that park in the streets this would be a money maker for all cities that would do it and the money they collect would pay for the people they hire to issue tickets.”
“Due to the sequester, the White House has decided to let 5,000 illegal aliens loose rather than cut the $50 million purchase of new uniforms for the TSA. Sounds like Obama has his priorities a little mixed up. We, the children, are being punished, too, because they have decided to curtail tours of the White House, which happens to be our house that we paid for with our taxes. Someone needs to have his head examined. Just how long are we going to sit in the corner until he comes to his senses?”

7th venter: you need an education.
Unions, and their officials, are under constant Federal scrutiny.
They have to have everything documented and verified, almost to the point of how much toilet paper gets used in the restrooms in the union hall.
Yes, there was corruption in SOME unions years ago, but the union officials can't blow their nose without filing paperwork with the Federal government.
That old crappola about unions being criminals doesn't fly any more except with dittoheads.
Try a cup of TRUTH for a change.
It tastes pretty darn good.

Vent #2: No, I don't want to hear the crying.
Vent #3: Obama is just trying to make the cuts as painful and public as possible so he can blame the republicans. Everyone knows and the MSM will do his bidding.
Vent #4: LOL... good analogy.
Vent #5: Really? that's not going to happen. To many people like the "dependent on government" lifestyle to get a real job.
Vent #6: Obama = the great divider.
Vent #7: Not all union leaders are crooks, just most. LOL
Vent #8: Sequester!!! brought to by the White House administration.
Vent #9: Yes, follow your idol Chavez, move to Venezuela and live under the results of his glorious rule. All the Bush's are honorable citizens of this country.

It's not just the winter of Republican discontent but the spring, summer, and fall as well. The GOP lacks power in Washington,national popularity, and any real leader or coherent message. So-called Republicans wedge issues such as national security and crime have faded in relevance and importance to voters. Polls show that most Americans now agree with Democrats on most issues, including medicare, health care, immigration, social security, reducing gun violence, and raising taxes on the rich. The only issue the Republicans have left can be summarized: a capitol we have a $16 trillion debt. But even in fighting Democrats over deficits and spending, out gunned Congregational Republicans are usually stuck in the unfaltering roll of obstructionists.

While Republican governors are increasingly coming on board with Obama's proposed Medicaid expansion welfare . . . Republicans in Congress are renewing their political assault on the new health care law, trying to repeal President Obama's signature domestic achievement as part of the next battle over the federal budget.
House Budget Committee Chairman Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wisc., said his new budget includes a repeal of President Obama's health care law (ObamaCare). Both parties and the president have said they want to avoid a government shutdown, and Ryan said getting rid of ObamaCare will strengthen Medicare's finances.

#1-Why, have you seen one, flying over your still? (You have nothing to fear, unless you are paranoid, or think you are paranoid!)
#2-They already have taxes, and cameras, for all that. Besides, it would take money away from the State, in prison revenues, to have more people employed.
#3-I agree, they shouldn't have cut tours to the White House--they should charge for the tours, and call it "house upkeep". Or raise taxes, to justify the statement that we have paid for whatever it is we think we've paid our govenment to serve us with...a hundred years later...
#4- So, which are you, a little bopeep sheep, or an evil Republican? Great way to lump 300 million people all together...
#5- The Great Recession won't be over, till all have full time job? All? That statement is bound to make a Great Impression!
#6-Chris Matthews/Rachel Maddow is to Conservatives, what Hannity/Beck is to Liberals...according to one's leanings, stomach upset may ensue. Hate-mongering is not owned by any political philosophy, but it is employed by all.
#7-Hundreds? I didn't know there were that many unions. Or are you talking about politicians, in general? If you're talking about CEOs, I'm afraid not nearly enough of them have been prosecuted, nor are they likely to be, unless they are put up as sacrifices to the cause...
#8-Oh, I see...that was sarcasm, right?
#9-Dick Cheney=devil...agreed (well, devil-in-training, anyway). Right on, about Bushes...except for Jeb. I think he may actually have brains enough to not run for President, but, if he did, he'd use drug-crazed WMD-toting senior Cuban refugees, as an excuse. Not sure why Hugo Chavez was brought up, other than, yes, he's dead, which is good for Venezuela, at least in the long run...

The sequester has brought out one thing in Washington....that nothing has changed.
What if all the Secretaries were told to reduce their current budgets by 1.5%? There has to be that much in just waste and duplication. It's the Federal Government for heavens sake. The good ones would eliminate the waste and the bad ones would scream that the sky is falling.

There is corruption in unions, business and government. And they are all under Federal scutiny.

Just wanted to let you know that anyone or anything that has a Patriotic connotation, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center SPLC, could be a possible terrorist. LOL

WASHINGTONEXAMINER.COM: A former hospital executive and TEA PARTY favorite, Scott was among the ACA's fiercest opponents, at one point spending $20 million of his own" money on ads denouncing President Obama's "job killing" health-care reform. BUT now Scott has given up the fight, claming he could not," in good conscience, deny the uninsured access to care." Ok just one poll Politiico.com.
NOW WHY DON'T YOU GIVE SOME FACTS TO BACK UP YOUR CLAIMS.

Scott Who??
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R), became the 13th governor to reject the ObamaCare Medicaid expansion “Welfare.”
While former hospital CEO, Florida Gov. Rick Scott did support the ObamaCare Medicaid expansion “Welfare.” But now a Florida Senate committee rejected the idea, which is all but ending the possibility that the state would add more poor people to “Medicaid Welfare" rolls.
truth posted at 11:46 am on Wed, Mar 13, 2013.
Even before Gov. Rick Scott ran for office, the former hospital company CEO made a name as one of the nation’s leading opponents of President Barack Obama’s health care reform plan.
He spent millions of his own fortune backing a group called Conservatives for Patients Rights that espoused a “free-market” approach to health care rather than the expansion of government programs.
As governor, he helped lead the legal challenge to the Affordable Care Act. When the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the law last summer, Scott was one of the first to seize on the court ruling that said states could opt out of the expansion of Medicaid, a key element of the reform.
