Damn this sh*t is old... and rank. My fellow Americans leave me scratching my head yet again. All of you are well meaning, but you're not looking past the party pageantry and scenery to see that this is all just theater.
Carter this, Reagan that, Clinton... Bush... Obama...
The reality is folks, that not one administration, not one congress in many generations has lived within our budget. That means they've ALL failed us. All you lot are doing is jockeying for who failed us less...
... and that is NOT the conversation we should be having... if you can call endless, pointless finger pointing a conversation.
Here is another historical constant... If the government, particularly a segment of government (party, party faction or politician) is trying to sell you one thing, you can bet what's in the box ain't as advertised and is most often something else entirely.
Bet on it. Now there are some derivatives I could get behind! Short selling our politicians.
By all means, if that's the conversation you really want to have, who failed most, in EVERY FREAKIN ISSUE AND TOPIC, by all means, piss your lives away.
If you want things fixed this is the last conversation we should be having...
carry on...
