Both sides are running around
claiming that the world will end on August 2nd if we do not have a
new debt ceiling in place or a deficit-reduction plan agreed to. The Democrats are claiming the Treasury will
not be able to pay its debts and that, therefore, Social Security checks won’t
be going out and the rest of the world will collapse. The Republicans are saying we’re going to go
over the cliff. Each side is still in
the demand stage, demanding this and demanding that.
COMMENTS:
It’s all a scare tactic designed to make the American public
happy when they finally announce that they have made an agreement to cut
spending by $1 a year and raise taxes by $800 billion. It’s smoke and mirrors. It’s a game.
It’s not what it appears to be. Pure
and simple, they don’t have the guts to do what has to be done, they don’t have
the courage to tell us that, so they are intending to bamboozle us and kick the
can down the road again.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. Whether or not
they found her guilty, what do you think?
Is Casey Anthony guilty? (Bev ~ Chandler, AZ)
A. Yes, she is
guilty. Now, let’s get beyond the
fixation on this trial and start dealing with the real issues at hand. We have ominous problems looming in the
Middle East. Our nation’s finances are
in horrible shape. We have millions of Americans
without roofs over their heads or food in their bellies. We have a volatile situation in North Korea
and also in Mexico. The situation in
Japan is still grim. We have the worst
President this country has ever had and one of the worst leaders any country
has ever had. Let’s get beyond Casey
Anthony.
Q. I hear Tiger Woods
is going to make some big announcement Monday.
What do you think it will be? (Hannah ~ Havre, MT)
A. That he misses his
wife and children and cannot concentrate on his game.
Q. I hear we might stop
giving money to Pakistan? (Jeremy ~
Chico, CA)
A. I think I have
been pretty clear on my position: We have too much of a domestic need for our
money. We have our own problems with our
economy and unemployment. We need our
money here, not overseas in someone else’s pocket. We have no business subsidizing energy research
in the Falklands or in supporting corrupt governments in Pakistan. Now, if we want to spend money on researching
what goes on with old men in the Virgin Islands, I could support that…..
