Now that's going to help incumbents

WASHINGTON — As if voters don't have enough to be angry about this election year, the government is expected to announce this week that more than 58 million Social Security recipients will go through another year without an increase in their monthly benefits.  It would mark only the second year without an increase since automatic adjustments for inflation were adopted in 1975. The first year was this year.

That's bullshit!   Social Security recipients will go two years without an increase?   And they whine about spending...

Buying whores is always very costly

The cost of bringing 'The Quitter' and her family to town? More than $100,000.  Karen Handel’s campaign paid an Ohio jet charter service nearly $92,000 and her latest campaign finance report shows it was for the Palin event. Handel also paid an additional $13,000 in expenses to the InterContinental Hotel in Buckhead for the event.  Handel’s quarterly report shows her campaign committee to be $28,000 in debt, with another $55,000 in deferred expenses still outstanding.

'Government' Motors paying dividends!
It's early, and the price tag is high -- $33,500 after a federal tax credit -- but the Chevrolet Volt appears to be the breakthrough General Motors promised when the unique extended-range electric car debuted as a concept at the Detroit auto show in 2007.
If we had only listened to the America-hating teabaggers - who I am sure still ignorantly think they are owed - GM and Chrysler would have folded and unemployment would be 11% instead of 9.6% and my anti-government, teabagging neighbor would still be out of work - two years later - and living with me!

Yeah, they're called dittoheads, Pigboy
