Deficit and other strange occurances

I read somewhere that the war costs are not part of the deficit numbers....which means that the spending has really gotten crazy since Bill Clinton left office.

Social Security recipients have not had a cost of living increase in two years.....which is odd because gas, food and energy costs have spiked in the last two years.

The debt ceiling is such a strange term when you know that it can be adjusted according to who has the most votes.

I think the American public has lost confidence in both parties and that's why groups like the Tea Party can get representation in the House and the Senate. It's important to know that they don't have multiple seats in either chamber.

We give $2 billion dollars a year to Pakistan for their military operations. HUH?

Republicans failed yesterday to overturn the LIGHT BULB ACT which would eliminate 100 watt incandescent bulbs by next January.

The problem is everybody wants to replace them with mercury filled fluorescent bulbs and they never mention LIGHT EMITTING DIODES or LEDs.

A special shout out to the American babes running around in Germany trying to win another World Cup.

Peaches are currently 77 cents a pound. It won't last long. Enjoy.
