It's so depressing to watch. Even worse to be paying for.

I do not envy you on that - what a pity for such a wonderful land.

All that and still the best country in the world.

In your eyes, not in a good many others.

No, not in my eyes, objectively, by any reasonable measure.

Not much to be proud of here anymore. Graft grabbing legislators who
do nothing. For instance, a rebate from the almighty to spur the
economy. Except the poor and the elderly won't get as much, if any, than
someone making 70 grand a year.
I'm on soc sec and I got a cost of living raise this year. Whoopee,
they also raised the amount they take out for Medicare so I got a net
gain of 30 bucks a month. My senator got a raise of 375 bucks a month
and he/she doesn't have to pay for any medical!
And now what do we have to choose from for a new prez?
Lets see.........A lady( her denomination is the dollar) who spent
eight years in the senate and got only one important piece of
legislation passed, 100 million to build a museum for Woodstock!
An islamic black man with absolutely no experience in government or
foreign affairs
An ambulance chasing methodist lawyer
A baptist geriatric ex pow who swings with the tide better than a
boat at anchor
A Roman Catholic mayor who happened to be in charge when terrorists
attacked even tho he was probably in bed with one of his honeys at the time
A mormon wall street investor, I wonder where his loyalties will lie
A baptist guvner with a funny name that loves taxes

I think I'll go cruising!
