they will leave Social Security and Medicare alone; then --

Let's give 'em ANOTHER TRILLION and maybe they will bring back some minimum wage jobs to this country; then --

Let's give 'em ANOTHER TRILLION and they might even allow GAYS to MARRY!; then --

Let's give 'em ANOTHER TRILLION and maybe they'll let us keep the Democratic president in office for another 4 years; then --

Let's give 'em ANOTHER TRILLION and maybe they'll give us back our right to PRIVACY; then --

And let's keep giving more and more TRILLIONS until eventually they finally give us back our COUNTRY; even though by that time there won't be much left to give back!



I have to laugh when Lindsay Graham says the Democrats "ate their lunch" -- with a trillion dollar price tag, Graham is probably
crying all the way to the bank!

Wasn't it the Dutch West India Company who approached a group of Indians on Manhattan and traded Manhattan for some beads, cloth, and trinkets worth about 60 Dutch guilders, or about $24? Makes me wonder if we are descendants of the same tribe.

Then again, maybe I should be more thankful -- more grateful -- shouldn't we all be more appreciative for the few crumpets the GOP and rich cats deem suitable for us? At least we are ALIVE.
Gee, ain't life grand?

Isn't this the same way a PROTECTION RACKET works? Pay up or you will suffer BIG TIME. So, people pay up.

Oh well, I'll just shut up and eat my porridge.

"PLEASE SIR, MAY I HAVE SOME MORE?"
