15,000,000,000,000 Reasons to Despise the Beltway Blowhards

Today the U.S. debt clock will strike $15 trillion. Meanwhile, the 12 bickering jerks on the Stupor Committee continue to jockey for the 2012 elections. Any person with a room temperature IQ could cut $1.2 trillion from the federal budget over lunch and a couple of JD's on the rocks. But, what do you expect when the group is comprised of 6 conservative Republicans and 6 liberal Democrats -- deadlock!

We started getting into these deficit troubles in 1964 when the the Texas bloward LBJ got his (not so) Great Society legislation passed. It is been downhill every since. Since 1964, we have fought too many needless wars, expanded too many bloated poverty programs, dramatically expanded entitlement spending, and added so many federal agencies that even Rick Perry can't remember them all!

George W. Bush put our deficits into overdrive during his compassionately, stupid conservative 8 years in office and the Great Barack Obama, the Divider-in-Chief, doubled down on his profligate spending habits. We now borrow 40 cents of every dollar we spend and these morons in Washington can't find anything to cut?

Some ideas, after just one Jack Daniels...

How about a tax on insider Congressional stock trading? How about getting rid of Jimmy Carter's Energy Department? How about eliminating all foreign aid and replacing it with humanitarian aid (only when there is a disaster)? Why not eliminate the Education Department or cut the Defense budget by 10%? We have 1/2 million troops in 150 countries --why? Oh yeah, Obamanable-Care should be repealed. Cut the federal bureacracy by 10% -- across the board, including Homeland Security. Bring home the 38 thousand troops from Korea and put them on our borders...

Oh, I almost forgot, everybody should pay some income tax, even if it's only $5.00 a week.

How ironic that the number 15 trillion has 12 zeroes in it -- the same number of losers on the Stuper
Committee.
