You know the bill that know one is paying attention to....5,000 + earmarks, you know that one?A pay increase and for the first time in 30 years no increase in Social Security. Evidently, screw the seniors who need it the most, but give a raise to a bunch of fat asses that average salaries way above the private sector.

I was FURIOUS with Chris Matthews tonight (and wrote him an EMail about it) because he had Pat Buchanan literally On the Ropes while admitting he didn't believe humans were a "part of evolution". These people aren't simply amusing, they are DANGEROUS, as they believe this planet is expendable. After the Rapture, we will not have any need for 'Earth' - so it is apparently fine to just rape it, as well as all those non-human 'animals' (how quickly we forget, to those people, Blacks were 'animals' without souls). To these people, the only reason WOMEN will be allowed in heaven is because we need someone to bring us our coffee. Problem #4:

Okay, fine with me.Problem #1: We are letting people who get HUGE amounts of money to support their agenda - such as medical insurance companies - create the laws which apparently restrict them from their profits. I agree completely with the person who suggested our politicians should be *required* to wear NASCAR coats - identifying what companies are their actual 'sponsors' - with the largest of these being *prominent* across their chests.Problem #2: While Michele Bachmann and others "pray" for our sick and hungry to just die and go away, I wish someone would just point out the phrase "Christian Nation" was declared an oxymoron long before they were born ("Give unto Caesar ..") - by Jesus Himself.Problem #3: Anyone who takes the time to read George Washington's *Diary* or the 'Jefferson Bible' can quickly see our <b>Founding Fathers</b> thought church-going and Hebrew mythology was total nonsense (though George did see the political advantage of 'attending church'). So for *anyone* to try and make this country into a 'Christian Nation' is - I'm sorry - positively insane (definition: 'not of sound mind or mentally deranged) Open topics? Okay, fine with me.
