ADDING INSULT TO INJURY

Those in Sandy-stricken northeastern states are now receiving… power bills.  Thousands of customers received their normal power bills, although they have been without electricity since the storm struck.  The New York Post reports that Long Island residents received an estimated rate that covered projected usage over the entire billing cycle; the statements made no mention of any possible refunds to adjust for the prolonged blackouts.  The Long Island Power Company is flatly refusing to take customer calls or to comment. 

COMMENTS:

Get ready folks; that’s exactly the attitude you can expect from our government for at least the next four years. 

TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:

Q. I think that the biggest problem this country has is that the Republicans won’t back down and compromise on anything.  (Cleo ~ Havre, MT)

A. Well, it takes guts for you to say that.  Name one time, just one, when the Democrats backed down over the last four years.   The Republicans, being the weenies that they are, have been 100% the ones who did the compromising, and you far-left-wing liberal Democrats have been cramming your agendas to destroy America down the nation’s throats whether they like it or not.  Your synonym for “compromise” is dictatorship. You really do all belong in another country, on another plant, in another solar system.  

Q. Did I hear this right?  Obama wants to raise taxes over $1.6 trillion?  Is he out of his skull?  (Marv ~ Canby, OR)

A. He is quite serious, and don’t laugh at him.  Most people thought he was out of his skull when he went after ObamaCare, remember?  Something to make you feel better… that’s over ten years.  Something to make you feel worse… he plans on NO spending cuts.  Aren’t you glad you voted for him? 

Q. Senior citizens are very upset with what is happening to our country.  They transcend all political parties.  Do you think they stand a chance of ever reversing this horrible trend we’re on?  (Omar ~ Southfield, MI)

A. There is a slight possibility.  You have disenchanted Democrats you know, the ones who loved the party when it was a party and not a Marxist-Socialist movement;  you have disenchanted Republicans, like me, who recognize that the Republicans will never have the guts and smarts to mount a reversal; and you have the Independents who solidly want to reverse the course we are on.  Add them all together and I think you have a viable third party for 2016, especially if the Democrats put up Clinton and the Republicans put up Scott Brown or Chris Christy.
