Hi,
This blogger finds that there are as many readers in foreign countries following the blog as Americans. Is it because we are all experiencing degrees of the same problems and need answers that don't seem to be forthcoming?
When this blogger worked for newspapers and magazines, it was always a joy to reach people across town, then across the country, and sometimes if luck was with you in another land.
But technology has changed that. Not only can a blog reach across the world but a blogger can write free and independently without instructions from someone higher up in a hierarchy. It is a true freedom of opportunity made possible by the internet and those who believe in it. It is one of the great benefits of our new technology that the answers to problems that are universal can be shared and discussed and answers sought.
We should pay tribute to those elements in technology that can create a world-wide forum and make contributions of knowledge, ideas, and answers to universal problems. This blogger believes that Government is a entity that constantly creates questions involved in all elements of ethics, morals, and human welfare. Our lives are deeply affected by people we have never met and who have no knowledge of our individual problems or history. Polls came about to add some semblance of the reality of what people think, how they live, and what they feel but although it is certainly better than nothing, it's not much better. And like everything beneficial, it is open to corruption.
Technology can be misused to the extent that information can be twisted, or used as propaganda or for personal gain either monetarily or aggrandizement. Just like in Government, good can become evil and twisted. This, of course, means that in spite of how busy we are or the problems personally surrounding us, we can never close a watchful eye on our politicians. Unfortunately, this is not the case and those who most affect our well being are aware that this is so. We elect them to take the responsibility for us but we forget that there have to be constant checks and balances so that responsibility doesn't become a license for complete dictatorship or thievery or both. OR SIMPLY A LICENSE TO KILL THE OPPOSITION WITH WHATEVER MEANS AVAILABLE. IT BECOMES A CHALLENGE TO REFORM GOVERNMENT OR PERISH.
Power is a heady business and absolute power is the stuff that mass murder thrives on. Hitler is always a good example here. He did everything in Germany, legally, but managed to control, create an absolute rule, and beside making war on others, kill masses of his own people for whatever reason he deemed necessary. Minorities and the poor always suffer the most under these circumstances when ethics and morals disappear and are replaced by one person dictates.
Politicians and Government represent a power that only a very few wealthy or acclaimed individuals can match and once it gets out of hand, more blood flows to attempt to stem the tide of single minded onslaught.
Religion was once as strong and powerful as Government and created a semblance of balance between the two but man has outsmarted himself by showing how smart he is not to believe in anything so mystical. Folks are outsmarted because the very protection against the ugliness in mankind and Government was the very mystery of a higher power to judge one's actions. WITHOUT THAT THREAT THE "KIND" IN MANKIND OFTEN DISAPPEARS COMPLETELY !!!!!!!!!!!
Unfortunately, the only replacement is ETERNAL VIGILENCE OVER GOVERNMENT. THOSE FOLKS WHO HAVE THE RESPONSIBLITY FOR YOUR COUNTRY AND WELL BEING. AS COMMUNISM COMSUMES THE WORLD THERE IS MORE AND MORE RESPONSIBILITY BEING TAKEN AWAY FROM YOU FOR YOUR WELFARE!!!!!!!!!!COMMUNISTS NO LONGER CONSIDER THAT THEY HAVE TO ANSWER TO A HIGHER ORDER. THEY CONSIDER THEMSELVES THE HIGHER ORDER AND THAT IS THE DANGER THAT MUST BE KEPT IN CHECK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THIS IS A RAPIDLY !!!!!!!!!!! CHANGING WORLD THAT IS MOVING INTO TECHNOLOGY. A TECHNOLOGY THAT IS FAR BEYOND ANYTHING WE HAVE YET EXPERIENCED !!!!!!!!!!!!WITHOUT SOME ETHICAL AND MORAL UNDERSTANDING OF THE MEANING OF THESE CHANGES, THE COUNTRIES OF OUR WORLD MAY FIND CHAOS WHERE SIMPLE PEACE WAS ONCE THE NORM !!!!!!!!!!
The world is always in flux and experiencing ups and downs but this change is more critical because of the interconnectivity that is being felt.
It is no LONGER one hidden country BUT THE VIEW is of a larger territory. Citizens of each country do not necessarily feel the effects. BUT EACH COUNTRY IN ORDER TO THRIVE MUST FEEL THE RESPONSIBITY FOR THEIR GOVERNMENT BEFORE IT GETS OUT OF HAND TO AVOID CONFLICTING WITH OTHER GOVERNMENTS AROUND THE WORLD. THAT DOESN'T MEAN GIVING UP AUTONOMY BUT RATHER EMBRACING THE IDEA OF WHAT RELIGION CALLED BROTHERHOOD.
IF CITIZENS BECOME AWARE THAT TRUSTING ALONE IS NOT ENOUGH TO CONTROL THE INEVITABLE POWER RAISED BY GOVERNMENTS. WITH THE ADDITION OF CITIZENS' CHECKS AND BALANCES WE HAVE A REAL SHOT AT REFORM !!!!!!!!!! A REFORM BASED ON ETHICS, MORALS, AND FINANCIAL REASON TO CURE THE ILLS THAT AIL US IN A TECHNOLOGICAL WORLD, PERHAPS ONE EVEN CONDUCTED BY ROBOTICS.
THIS BLOGGER HOPES THAT THIS BLOG WILL BE A STEP TOWARD THE UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT IS MISSING AND WHAT IS NEEDED FOR A MORE SECURE AND PEACEFUL LIFE.

FIXING BLAME--WHY? POST 176
Hi,
Does it really matter ???????? Fixing blame in this country has become a national pastime !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND IT SERVES TO AVOID FIXING THE ISSUE !!!!!!!!!!!
The country's shutdown on budget was a protest not just against Obama care but against BIG GOVERNMENT AND ITS DICTATES and big government does what it always does, ignores the problem.
So, what does that tell this blogger about WHO'S TO BLAME ??????? NOTHING !!!!!!!!!! WHAT IT DOES REVEAL IS THAT BIG GOVERNMENT IS AN UNWIELDY, UNYIELDING AND MONSTER ENTITY THAT WE HAVE CREATED.
THAT MEANS ESSENTIALLY EVEN THOUGH WE ARE BUSY PASSING THE BUCK:
WE ARE ALL TO BLAME !!!!!!!!
WE ALLOWED THIS MONSTROSITY TO BE BUILT day by day, month by month, year by year, in good times and bad and by both Republicans and Democrats !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO WHAT NOW ??????????
THERE ARE ALWAYS CHOICES. We can LEARN TO LIVE WITH IT AND MUMBLE A LOT !!!!!!!! OR WE CAN FORM NATIONAL FORCES IN AND OUT OF WASHINGTON TO REDUCE THE SIZE OF IT. The first choice is the easier one and is probably the realistic choice for most people. Eventually anything THAT GETS TOO BIG WILL COLLAPSE UNDER ITS OWN WEIGHT AND CORRUPTION !!!!!!!!!!!! UNLESS IT'S TOO PROFITABLE !!!!!!!!!!!
THE SECOND CHOICE: REDUCING THE GOVERNMENT BY COMMITTEE IS FRAUGHT WITH NIGHTMARE PREDICTIONS. UNLESS YOU HAVE CHOSEN EXCEEDINGLY WELL, IT COULD ACTUALLY LEAD TO MORE GOVERNMENT !!!!!!!!!!! This blogger doesn't want to discourage the GOOD SOULS out there but unless WE FIND someone with the determination of an Elliot Ness (the old TV investigator), the will of a Ronald Reagan, the silky persuasion of a Bill Clinton and the dogged determination of a Barack Obama ALL ROLLED INTO ONE there's not much chance it will succeed.
THE ECONOMIC PICTURE OF THE FUTURE, HOWEVER, MAY OFFER A BETTER COURSE. A credit card for ANYONE WHO really doesn't understand is a scrap of plastic BACKED BY REAL MONEY OR GOODS. When that plastic loses its backing IT'S A USELESS SCRAP OF PLASTIC CHEMICALS UPON WHICH THE RECIPIENTS SPIT !!!!!!!!!!!! SPIT IS RARELY NEGOTIABLE !!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHAT DOES BIG GOVERNMENT DO BEST ????????? WHY SPEND MONEY OF COURSE. IT USES THE PLASTIC CARD WITHOUT ANY UNDERSTANDING OR WORRY ABOUT ITS REAL VALUE !!!!!!!!
It is a FATAL DISEASE !!!!!!!!!!!!!! POVERTY.
GOVERNMENTS DIE FROM THE FATAL DISEASE AND THE RESULTING WRECKAGE IS THEN PUT BACK TOGETHER BY
GUESS WHO ???????? Folks, who can ADD AND SUBTRACT AND RECOGNIZE THE VALUE OF THRIFT !!!!!!!!!!!!!
SO, YOU CAN PREPARE FOR THE FUTURE BY SELECTING CANDIDATES FOR OFFICE WHO CAN ADD AND SUBTRACT AND RECOGNIZE VALUE !!!!!!!!!!! THEREBY INJECTING SOME MEDICINE INTO A SICK GOVERNMENT AND POSSIBLY SAVING IT FROM A VIOLENT ILLNESS.
It is possible if candidates are selected on the basis of ethics, morals, dedication, and financial understanding to REDEEM OUR NATIONAL FINANCES AND BELIEFS. WE MUST ALSO RECOGNIZE THAT IF THE PRESIDENT IS GOING TO BE A BUMP IN THE FINANCIAL ROAD THEN ELECT HIM ON THE BASIS OF MATHMATICAL UNDERSTANDING AND NOT AS A PRETTY FACE AS IN THE PAST !!!!!!!! Accept that financial understanding is ADDING AND SUB-TRACTING NOT........THIS BLOGGER REPEATS.....NOT THE FANCY, DANCY FINANCIAL SOLUTIONS OF DESTITUTION TAUGHT BY EVERY SOURCE TODAY TO ENCOURAGE PROFIT OVER SENSIBILITY.
ADD AND SUBTRACT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WE HAVE $2. WE SPEND $1 DOLLAR AND THAT LEAVES $1. NO MORE !!!!!!!!!! NO LESS !!!!!!!!!! CAN GOVERNMENTS OPERATE THIS WAY ?????????? No matter what the pundits tell you
OF COURSE THEY CAN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! REDUCED TO THE SIMPLE FACTS OF ECONOMICS, IT'S STILL 1+ 1 = 2 AND MAKE NO MISTAKE THIS IS WHAT IS MISSING AND THAT'S:
WHAT'S TO BLAME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, if fixing blame is necessary, THERE'S THE ANSWER !!!!!!!!!!!!! FOLLOW THE MONEY TRAIL. THE SOLUTION --SIMPLE MATH-- ADDING AND SUBTRACING TO KEEP A GOVERNMENT TRIM AND AFLOAT AND THE GOVERNMENTAL PARTICIPANTS ARE ONLY AS GOOD AS THEIR MATHEMATICAL SIMPLICITY !!!!!!!!

DIVORCE BIG GOVERNMENT! POST 175
Hi,
This blogger wishes that our Government would do what Government can do best: make sure the country can run without too much conflict and can pay its bills. That's the goal being overlooked. It's in trouble when it branches out into TOTAL HEALTH CARE in America !!!!!!!!!!
The news on the government's shut down has pushed the recent group of newscasters to a frenzy on non-essential elements and they have mentioned all the heart wrenching things they could muster !!!!!!!!! Including the return of military bodies without being able to fund families to meet them. And guess what the 'powers that be' did ??????????? THEY CONTACTED A CHARITY TO FUND THE FAMILIES BUT PROMISED TO REPAY IT !!!!!!!!!!???????????
OKAY, WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT IDEA ??????? IF IT'S A CHARITY--WHY DO WE NEED TO REPAY IT ??????
IT SHOULD BE GIVING THE MONEY AS A CHARITY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!NOT GETTING REPAID FOR IT !!!!!!!!! MAYBE THE GOVERNMENT MEANT IT WAS MAKING A DONATION TO THE CHARITY ??????????? NOW THAT WOULD AT LEAST MAKE SENSE IF NOT GOOD ECONOMIC SENSE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
However, this blogger has heard no mention of how much money the government is saving by not funding many of the unnecessary endeavors in which it is involved.
SPEAKING OF CHARITIES AND this blogger HOPES THE GOVERNMENT RUES THE DAY IT BROUGHT THE SUBJECT UP--since it might become an ALTERNATIVE AGAIN TO BIG GOVERNMENT and bite it on its heavy spending !!!!!!!!!!!!
GUESS WHAT WE USED TO DO BEFORE OUR ERSTWHILE GOVERNMENT DECIDED WE WERE HELPLESS SLOBS WITH NO FEELINGS OF HUMANITY OR JUSTICE ????????????? WE USED OUR OWN CHARITY TO TAKE CARE OF OUR PROBLEMS !!!!!!!!!!!! DUH...DUH......AND DUH !!!!!!!!!!!!
AMERICA, THE GENEROUS, USED TO EXTEND THAT GENEROSITY AT HOME TO ITS CITIZENS THROUGH *****PRIVATE********* I SAID THAT CORRECTLY **********PRIVATE CHARITIES AND WE DID A GOOD JOB OF TAKING CARE OF OUR OWN INDIVIDUALLY AS WELL THROUGH EXTENDED FAMILIES AND FRIENDS !!!!!!!!!!!!! IT WASN'T A PERFECT SYSTEM BUT NEITHER IS GOVERNMENT CONTROL. PRIVATE CHARITY LEFT MORE MONEY FOR MORE CHARITY THAN GOVERNMENT DOES BECAUSE IT TOOK NO TAXES TO DO IT.
NOW, WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THAT ???? WHEN DID WE BECOME THE DEPENDENT SLAVES OF A GOVERNMENT SYSTEM THAT DOES ALL THE SUSPOSED GOOD DEEDS WE HEAR ABOUT CONSTANTLY ???????????
AYE THERE'S THE KEY -- HEAR ABOUT--THERE'S STILL PLENTY OF CHARITY GIVEN BY PRIVATE AMERICANS BUT WE DON'T GET TO HEAR MUCH ABOUT IT BECAUSE OF PRESS BIAS.
HARKING BACK TO HEALTH IN THE 1930's DEPRESSION, OUR DOCTORS AND NURSES EXTENDED HELP TO FOLKS WITH PROBLEMS IN MANY WAYS. CLINICS WERE RUN IN BIG CITIES LIKE NEW YORK ALONG WITH CHURCH AND STATE HELP ETC. VISITING DOCTORS TREATED THE WORST CASES FREE--*FREE*--NOT A MISTAKE. WE TOOK CARE OF OUR OWN WITHOUT FEDERAL INTERFERENCE. MANY DOCTORS TREATED CITIZENS IN COMMUNITIES EITHER FREE, BY DONATION, OR ON EXTENDED CREDIT THAT THEY DIDN'T EXPECT TO COLLECT UNDER DEPRESSION CONDITIONS. MUCH OF IT WAS PAID BECAUSE FOLKS UNDERSTOOD THE DOCTOR HAD BILLS TOO !!!!!!!!!!! AND THAT THEY CARED !!!!!!!!!!!!
Frankly this blogger doesn't believe we are making America a better land with all the control placed in Government to distribute as they see fit. It offers too many moral and ethical issues to a group too large to really control them. It takes away from the people who are being controlled those desires, privileges and human interactions that create compassionate, caring citizens who reach out to others. It fosters more crime --RIGHT-- in those who are most needy because there isn't the incentive to repay. Simply the lust to ACQUIRE LIFE'S GOODIES because they now feel they DESERVE to have it all rather than having to EARN MORE to get more.
IT BECOMES A WAY OF LIFE TO BE ON THE TAKE RATHER THAN PRODUCTIVE AND GIVING. PREVIOUS GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS PROVED THAT REACTION. WELFARE PROGRAMS IN THE PAST PRODUCED GENERATIONS OF WELFARE FAMILIES WHO WERE CONDEMNED TO NEVER ESCAPE.
In general group endeavors can benefit in many ways BUT ONLY if they are private endeavors with real profit and loss and a BOTTOM LINE.
GOVERNMENT NEVER HAS A BOTTOM UNTIL................
.............................THE BOTTOM FALLS OUT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sometimes, it falls out for the country but mostly it fails the individual in a myriad of ways. The complications, confusions, time loss, and extra time necessary for any Government controlled venture is DEHUMANIZING. IF WE ARE HONEST WITH OURSELVES, IT IS INSULTING TO OUR DIGNITY AS CITIZENS. WE ARE TREATED MORE LIKE CRIMINALS INTENT ON STEALING RATHER THAN RECEIVING WHATEVER BENEFIT OFFERED.
AND OF COURSE, ONCE ACQUIRING THE NAME!!!!! CRIMINAL !!!!!!! SOME FEEL THEY MIGHT AS WELL HAVE THE GAME!!!!!! WHICH IS WHY SO MUCH DISHONESTY DEVELOPS UNDER GOVERNMENT CONTROL. DISHONESTY THEN BREEDS A WHOLE NEW SET OF DEHUMANIZING RULES AND EDICTS. A NEVER ENDING CYCLE !!!!!!!!!!
LET'S DIVORCE BIG GOVERNMENT AND FIND ANOTHER PATH TO OUR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS AND FREEDOM !!!!!!!!!!!!!
CHARITY SHOULD BE FREELY GIVEN BY EARNEST AND CARING CITIZENS WHO VALUE THE MILK OF HUMAN KINDNESS AND ABOVE ALL FIND FREEDOM TO PARTICIPATE A BLESSING.
GOVERNMENT SHOULD DO WHAT GOVERNMENT DOES BEST.
MAKE SURE THE COUNTRY CAN RUN WITHOUT TOO MUCH CONFLICT AND CAN PAY ITS BILLS ON TIME.
SO FAR, OBAMA'S GOVERNMENT HAS FAILED ON BOTH COUNTS !!!!!!!!!!!!! SO, CONTINUE TO SAVE MONEY, MR. PRESIDENT, AMERICA IS GOING TO NEED IT !!!!!!!!!!
CHEERS, CONNIE

CLOSING DOWN THE GOVERNMENT SAVES MONEY TOWARD OBAMACARE! POST 174
Hi,
FIRST AND FOREMOST, this blogger wants to thank the current president for shutting down the government and saving the taxpayers MUCHO MONEY !!!!!!!
You know by now that the government shut down on the basis of "no vote" . You have heard the Socialists dialogue ad infinitum on how much this is costing America. This blogger proposes to add to that dialogue on costs. SINCE THE PRESS IS IN THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION'S POCKET, HERE'S ANOTHER VIEW !!!!!!!!!
HAVE YOU REALIZED HOW MUCH THE GOVERNMENT IS ACTUALLY SAVING ?????????? THERE ARE MANY JOBS THAT ARE PART TIME = NO COST TO TAX PAYERS WHILE OFF THE GOVERNMENT DOLE OUT !!!!!!!!!!! WHAT ABOUT THE COSTS OF DOING BUSINESS IN THE CLOSED DEPARTMENTS OF GOVERNMENT ?????????? THERE'S A LOT MORE THAN SALARIES THAT GOES INTO RUNNING GOVERNMENT BUSINESS. WHILE SHUT DOWN THOSE COSTS DISAPPEAR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHAT ABOUT THE REDUCED COSTS OF EXPENSES IN TRANSPORT OF GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS HITHER AND THON ??????????? The hidden costs of government are easy to hide and budget making easily HIDES THE SAVINGS as well in times of "crisis".
PU.............LEEEEEZE......... GIVE US A BREAK!!!!!!!! SHUT THE GOVERNMENT DOWN FOR A MONTH IN EACH YEAR AND WE COULD PROBABLY COME CLOSE TO MAKING BUDGET !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THE HYSTERICAL DEMOCRATS BELIEVE THAT UNLESS YOU HAVE AN OVERPRICED OBJECT LIKE GOVERNMENT IN YOUR LIFE--YOU ARE POVERTY STRUCK !!!!!!!! AND UNLESS GOVERNMENT IS IN CONTROL OF YOUR LIFE, YOU ARE SO HANDICAPPED YOU CAN'T FUNCTION !!!!!!!!!!
THEY ARE SO BESOTTED WITH THE IDEA OF POWER AND GOVERNMENT HOLDING CITIZENS BY THE HAND, WIPING THEIR NOSE AND OTHER ORIFICES THAT THEY FEEL DESOLATE AND LOST WITHOUT PASSING ANOTHER WIPE !!!!!!!!!!
LET'S LOOK AT THE DIALOGUE . President Obama is so fond of blaming someone else and without George Bush to kick around, he's been relegated to CREDITING a mystery group called "THE TEA PARTY" WHOM WE HAVEN'T HEARD FROM SINCE HIS RE-ELECTION. NONE THE LESS, OBAMA DRAGS THEM OUT WHENEVER HE HAS A CATASTROPHE OF HIS MAKING AND PLACES THE BLAME ON THEM. HE HAS INSTRUCTED THE COUNTRY THAT THESE FOLKS, WHOM HE CAN'T CALL BY NAME, ARE IN CHARGE OF THE CONGRESS AND ARE FORESTALLING A VOTE ON THE BUDGET IN ORDER TO CRIPPLE HIS BELOVED HEALTH CARE BILL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU GIVE THEM TOO MUCH CREDIT FOR THE SAVINGS BEING MADE, SIR.
THIS HEALTH BILL PASSED BY A VERY DIFFERENT CONGRESS COMPOSED OF A MAJORITY OF DEMOCRATIC SUPPORTERS.
WAS OPPOSED BY A MAJORITY OF AMERICAN PEOPLE !!!!!!
AN ELECTION FOLLOWED FAVORING REPUBLICANS AND REDUCING THE NUMBER OF DEMOCRATS IN THE HOUSE REFLECTING THE VOTER'S DISLIKE OF OBAMA CARE. BUT OBAMA CONTINUED TO IGNORE THE VOTERS' WISHES IN THE ELECTION. OBAMA ADMITTED TAKING A "SHELLACKING" ON OBAMA CARE BUT WAS STILL UNWILLING TO HONOR THE VOTERS' WISHES SO HONORING THE VOTERS WISHES FELL TO THE NOW DEADLOCKED CONGRESS.
Never mind that the mail to CONGRESS HAS BEEN OVERWHELMINGLY AGAINST THE HEALTH CARE BILL FROM THE 'GITGO' !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NO ONE BOTHERS TO WRITE TO OBAMA ANY MORE BECAUSE HE JUST DOES NOT LISTEN TO THE CITIZENS OF AMERICA. HE BELIEVES HE IS RIGHT AND THAT CITIZENS IF NOT STUPID ARE AT LEAST ILL INFORMED ON THE BENEFITS OBAMA CARE IS OFFERING THEM. AMERICAN CITIZENS ARE MUCH BRIGHTER THAN ANYONE GIVES THEM CREDIT FOR BEING AND THEY SEE A DISASTER IN THE MAKING THAT EVIDENTLY THE SOCIALISTS' AND OBAMA'S NEAR SIGHTEDNESS CLOUDS OVER.
REMEMBER WHEN CLINTON WAS IN OFFICE AND HILLARY WROTE A HEALTH BUDGET FOR AMERICA AND CITIZENS WARNED HER THAT IT WOULD FINISH THEIR POLITICAL CAREER ???????????? THE NATION IS NO HAPPIER WITH OBAMA'S CONCEPT NOW !!!!!!!!!!!
THIS BLOGGER WANTS TO REPORT THIS BIT OF NEWS TO OUR ERSTWHILE PRESIDENT. THE PUBLIC IS VERY AWARE OF OBAMA CARE. THE PAYING PUBLIC HATES IT !!!!!!!!!!
NOW CONGRESS IS SIMPLY IMPLEMENTING THE CITIZEN'S DESIRES. IT'S NOT A FRAGMENT OR THIS MYSTERIOUS TEA PARTY !!!!!!!!! NOT LISTENING TO THE CITIZENS WISHES MAY WELL RENDER THE SOCIALISTS AND THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY A BLOW FROM WHICH THEY MAY NOT RECOVER. OBAMA CARE WILL REMIND CITIZENS EVERY DAY.
WHY DOES THE AMERICAN PUBLIC HATE THE BILL ?????????? NOT BECAUSE THEY ARE SELFISH. NO !!!!!!!!!!! BECAUSE THEY SEE THE REPRESSION AND CONTROVERSY AND LOSS OF FREEDOM THAT OBMACARE REPRESENTS. AND THAT IT WILL BANKRUPT A PROSPEROUS AND DYNAMIC COUNTRY.
AMERICA STANDS STILL FOR ALMOST ANYTHING YOU DISH OUT MR. PRESIDENT BECAUSE WE ARE A PEACE LOVING PEOPLE BUT NOT WHEN YOU TREAD ON OUR FREEDOM AND YOU'VE DONE A LARGE AMOUNT OF TREADING WITH OBAMA CARE !!!!!!!!!!! OF COURSE, MAYBE THE SAVINGS IN THE BUDGET FROM GOVERNMENT SHUT DOWN WILL WORK IN YOUR FAVOR ??????????????
THAT OBAMA WON'T EVEN LISTEN - WON'T EVEN DELAY A HATED BILL FOR A YEAR--WON'T DISCUSS THE ISSUE--MAKES OBAMA'S ADMINISTRATION VERGE ON DICTATORSHIP AND TELLS THE VOTERS WHAT THEY'VE SUSPECTED ALL ALONG !!!!!! PRESIDENT OBAMA DOES NOT REALLY BELIEVE IN OR VALUE THE AMERICAN SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT !!!!!!!!!!! COMMUNISM FITS HIS BILL.
GET OFF YOUR HIGH HORSE, MR PRESIDENT, AND COME BACK DOWN TO REALITY. THE AMERICAN TAX-PAYING PUBLIC KNOWS IT'S YOU AND ONLY YOU WHO HAS REFUSED TO NEGOTIATE THE PROBLEM OF OBAMA CARE WITH CONGRESS AND CAUSED THE GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN. CONGRESS REALLY CAN'T TAKE THE CREDIT !!!!!!!!!!!!!
SO, WE SEND OUR THANKS FOR SAVING AMERICA MONEY BY NOT RUNNING THE GOVERNMENT FOR AWHILE AND PERHAPS YOUR OBSTINACY COULD CONTRIBUTE TO ENOUGH SAVING TO PAY FOR OBAMA CARE FOR A FEW MONTHS AT LEAST.
A BUDGET WELL THOUGHT OUT INDEED, SIR !!!!!!!!!!!

WHY DOES THE AMERICAN PUBLIC HATE THE BILL ?????????? NOT BECAUSE THEY ARE SELFISH. NO !!!!!!!!!!! BECAUSE THEY SEE THE REPRESSION AND CONTROVERSY AND LOSS OF FREEDOM THAT OBMACARE REPRESENTS. AND THAT IT WILL BANKRUPT A PROSPEROUS AND DYNAMIC COUNTRY.
AMERICA STANDS STILL FOR ALMOST ANYTHING YOU DISH OUT MR. PRESIDENT BECAUSE WE ARE A PEACE LOVING PEOPLE BUT NOT WHEN YOU TREAD ON OUR FREEDOM AND YOU'VE DONE A LARGE AMOUNT OF TREADING WITH OBAMA CARE !!!!!!!!!!! OF COURSE, MAYBE THE SAVINGS IN THE BUDGET FROM GOVERNMENT SHUT DOWN WILL WORK IN YOUR FAVOR ??????????????
THAT OBAMA WON'T EVEN LISTEN - WON'T EVEN DELAY A HATED BILL FOR A YEAR--WON'T DISCUSS THE ISSUE--MAKES OBAMA'S ADMINISTRATION VERGE ON DICTATORSHIP AND TELLS THE VOTERS WHAT THEY'VE SUSPECTED ALL ALONG !!!!!! PRESIDENT OBAMA DOES NOT REALLY BELIEVE IN OR VALUE THE AMERICAN SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT !!!!!!!!!!! COMMUNISM FITS HIS BILL.
GET OFF YOUR HIGH HORSE, MR PRESIDENT, AND COME BACK DOWN TO REALITY. THE AMERICAN TAX-PAYING PUBLIC KNOWS IT'S YOU AND ONLY YOU WHO HAS REFUSED TO NEGOTIATE THE PROBLEM OF OBAMA CARE WITH CONGRESS AND CAUSED THE GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN. CONGRESS REALLY CAN'T TAKE THE CREDIT !!!!!!!!!!!!!
SO, WE SEND OUR THANKS FOR SAVING AMERICA MONEY BY NOT RUNNING THE GOVERNMENT FOR AWHILE AND PERHAPS YOUR OBSTINACY COULD CONTRIBUTE TO ENOUGH SAVING TO PAY FOR OBAMA CARE FOR A FEW MONTHS AT LEAST.
A BUDGET WELL THOUGHT OUT INDEED, SIR !!!!!!!!!!!
CHEERS, CONNIE
