You want to wretch out your breakfast? Try taking a gander at this post on my blog and seeing if you can choke down another tax hike or series of tax hikes to pay for this upcoming fiscal abortion. BZ

The question I want answered in a Senate hearing is: How much did Specter bet on the Patriots to loose the Super-bowl after bringing the filming scandal back up the week before the game?

I see President Bush is going to Africa to give away millions, and maybe billions, of US Taxpayers money.

Congress is investigating why Clemons possibly may have taken drugs that weren’t illegal with a prescription, but he may not have had a prescription. Dangerous drugs are flowing across our Southern Border like Niagara Falls and Congress is all concerned about if a baseball player took prescription drugs without a prescription…Stupid Idiots!

Gee, pretty soon Arlin Specter is going to want to know why your local high school football team cut little Johny from its roster. We had a chance to get rid of the RINO Specter but Bush and the RNC supported him…Idiots!

I understand business and economics real well.

It looks like Bush and Congress our trying to buy friends and give as much away as possible before the debt collectors show up and take America away.

Our house can stand a few security improvements. Our southern border has a drug and criminal problem.

no real big surprise about the trade deficit falling..when imposts cost more we buy less and when the dollar goes south imports will cost more..but on the bright side our exports are cheaper for other countries to but with the devalued dollar so they will buy more.

But the a weaker dollar also can cause some serious inflation and if the Fed uses the interest rates to try to control the inflation we get stagflation like we had during the Carter era..double digit inflation and interest rates and a higher than economically healthy unemployment rate.

It looks like the prez and congress are going to continue to operate under the theory that carrying a heavy debt is good..congress is spending and the prez is signing the bills and the Treasury department is printing more money. If business operated the way the government does it would be bankrupt within a few years…

“The United States is committed to this joint strategy to deal with a joint problem. I would not be committed to dealing with this if I wasn’t convinced that President Calderon had the will and the desire to protect his people from narco-traffickers. He has shown great leadership and great strength of character, which gives me good confidence that the plan we’ll develop will be effective.”President George W. Bush, August 21, 2007 Montebello

Yeah, I’d say he was pretty serious about securing Mexico from the narco-trafficers, but not us.
