Elections Do Have Consequences!!


I received an email containing this message and felt it was too interesting not to share following the Election Day results. I guess the interesting thing for me is the fact that the majority of Americans think the country is on the wrong track yet we as a nation voted the keep the status quo in both the Executive and Legislative branches of government. With that said think about this.
 

Congratulations to the Democrats and Young People!

You now own it. The next terrorist attack, you own it.
Can't get a job after graduation, you own it.
Sky rocketing energy prices due to Obama's EPA shutting down the energy producing states, you own it.
A nuclear Iran, you own it.
Bowing to the Soviet Union, you own it.
Another severe recession, you own it.
A volatile border with Mexico, you own it.
Trouble getting good health care, you own it.
Higher health insurance costs and health care costs, you own it.
No budget, you own it.
Our allies mistrust, you own it.
Another trillion of debt, you own it.
More Benghazi situations, you own it.
No one willing to join the military, you own it.
Trouble getting a loan to buy a home, you own it.
More dependency on food stamps, you own it.
Trouble finding good employment, you own it.
Several part time jobs instead of a good job, you own it.
A World Government, you own it.
The UN governing the United States instead of ourselves, you own it.
A Senate that will not bring any legislation to the table rather it is "Dead on Arrival", you own it.
China controlling our world trade and trampling all over us, you own it.
Loss of our freedoms as we have known it in the past, you own it.
A dictatorship instead of a democracy that follows the Constitution, you own it.
Less take home pay and higher living costs, you own it.
Driving a car that looks like a toy, you own it.
More government corruption and lies, you own it.
More toleration of extreme and fanatical Islamists, you own it.
Terrorist attacks called work place incidents, you own it.
Your revenge instead of love of country, you own it.

President George Bush is out of it now and there is not another good man for you to vilify and lie about.
In a way, I am relieved that another good man will not be blamed when it was impossible to clean up this mess you voted for.

Have a good day. God bless the United States! God is our hope now.

See Ya,
Bill

National Debt Day - OH BOY!!


Throughout the year there are important dates that we look forward to and those that we dread. April 15th, does anyone ever look forward to this date? I mean if you have to pay. By the way, if your not paying on April 15th, then you are paying too much in with-holding the rest of the year so you’re really not getting any money back, just getting the no-interest loan you gave to the government returned to you.

There is December 25th, we all look forward to that, unless it’s December 20 and you haven’t started your Christmas shopping yet. Thanksgiving, yes the date changes but the reason to look forward to it is the same wonderful feeling each year. March 17th, it is so good to be Irish.

This year April 26th is pretty significant. That was the day that our government quit working in the black and began working in the red. That’s right, as of the 27th of April; the federal government is working on credit. Credit we will all have to pay back – eventually. Actually, to be more accurate, it is money our children and grandchildren, and their children will have to pay, unless we have to follow Chrysler’s example and file bankruptcy.

To be fair, this date has been moving forward in the year for a LONG time; however, this year it has taken a tremendous move forward, from August 5th last year to April 26th this year. According to some estimates for next year, the national debt date will probably be somewhere in late February to early March. Not a very settling forecast.

Get out you checkbooks,
