Response to Harry Reid's Comment

The more one thinks about the below comment by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, the more one's blood boils:

"I think what we need are people on that bench who have been legislators, people who are lawyers, people who are academics. You look at our Supreme Court and all these people, all they know is working with people in black robes. We have got to change that."

Imagine if you will Main Street USA coming back with this statement:

"I think what we need are people in that Congress who have been successful business executives, people who know you have to bring in more income than you have expenses, those who take responsibilty and will not vote, nor allow others to vote, "Present" on legislation. You look at Congress and all these people all they know is working with others who like to spend, spend, spend. We have got to change that."

Think about it, folks.

February 2010 posted nearly $220 Billion in deficit.

The fiscal year looks as if it may end with a $.16 Trillion shortfall.

And, let us not allow anyone on Captiol Hill keep blaming others for overspending.

Let us demand that they take responsibility in the here and now.

There are solutions to problems that do not demand massive expenditures with no revenue in sight with which to cover these.

We pay those in Congress to handle such problems.

If they cannot, they should leave (without retirement benefits, because they would have failed their job).

Over For Now.
