Soapbox!!

Now, I am not an economist. But I am smart enough to know that our country is in a situation that will take years and years to recover. If we can recover at all!!

So why are we pledging $900 million toward the rebuilding of Gaza?

We didn't bomb it. We didn't have anything to do with the destruction.

So we send money for them to rebuild. Just so they can destroy it again. WTF?!?

WTH? I know you are not kidding, but someone has to be...

That is just ass a fied.

Why don't let turn over this whole mess to a bunch of women who know how to say no and handle life on a real budget?

Did you watch the evening news tonight? It's enough to make a good Christian girl curse a blue streak....not that I'm cursing...drinking wine maybe, but not cursing. Much.

Dear Lord, where is this country heading?

Because it's the 'politically correct' thing to do... GAG GAG GAG..... AND--why are we bailing out the banks? Why are we bailing out GM and Chrysler??? Why are we giving money to those idiots who bought homes they couldn't afford to begin with???? The list goes on and on and on.

Those of us who have done the right things throughout our lives, lived within our means, paid our bills, etc.---are now the ones being punished for doing the RIGHT thing.

Why do some people think that WE owe them a living??? They don't want to work --they want US to take care of them.... I think NOT!!!!!

Whew----now I'll get off my band wagon. But I will say one more thing: We do need to pray for our country and its future.

Hugs,
Betsy

I think we all better learn how to barter so when the money system collapses we'll figure out a way to get by!

That is worse than the whole stimulus package times ten. Isn't Gaza ruled by Hamas? Why are we giving them money to rebuild? And why pray tell are we sypathizing with them?
