Well it's only about 8:00 am and I've already had a good laugh. Good day anyway because today the 112th Congress -- the Republicans -- are being sworn in.
Anyway, on TV they showed clips of Pazzo Pelosi's last press conference as Speaker of the House, and it was a doozy. She said something like, "Our watch-word has always been deficit reduction. We had pay-as-you-go. Now let's see what the Republicans will do."
God, my sides hurt. I'm shooting coffee out my nose. "Our watch-word has always been deficit reduction." She lives in an alternate universe, kinda like the world of 1984, the novel, where everything means the opposite of what you say. Or like 'Arbeit mach frei." That was a slogan hanging over the gateway to Auschwitz. It means "Work makes you free." Yeah, so does poison gas.
Anyway, it seems that at the end of 2006, the budget deficit was already a whopping $8 TRILLION due to the Republicans patting each other on the back -- and 9/11 and Katrina. And it took 222 years to pile up that much debt. However, since Pazzo took the gavel in 2007, the deficit has grown to $14 TRILLION. That's about -- what? -- an 80% increase?
If Pazzo and the merry marxists have been "paying as they go," exactly where the hell did they go that cost such an inconceivable amount of money? They should be halfway to Zeta Reticuli by now. The only results I see is that they sucked the very life out of the United States. Ripped us all off. Left us with nothing.
God, I hate those vile wretches. It's just too bad we didn't get to vote for another president in November.
More positively, we'll probably all get to see John Boehner cry again. David Letterman made some tasteless joke about that. I'm sure David Letterman never cries. He doesn't care enough about anything to cry about it. The best he can do is snide. I'm pretty sure he hates himself. Stopped watching him a long time ago, while he still had the late, late show or whatever. He was just more bitter than funny anymore.
At any rate, I remember a few days after 9/11, they had this Day of Mourning event at the National Cathedral. Bunch of speakers, hymns, etc. etc. Very sad. The cameras occasionally panned the audience -- all of congress just about, the Clintons, the Bushes. Denny Hastert, who was then Speaker of the House, had an aisle seat. Can't remember who was speaking, but the camera swung over Denny Hastert, who was absolutely blubbering in grief and sorrow. Kinda made me think he was something more than an anonymity.
I like John Boehner, and I like it that he cares so much about "The American Dream." He'll probably do all he can to take care of it.
Wouldn't it be nice if we had a president who did?
Save the Republic.
