Congressional Representative Jim Moran has started the ball rolling for an increase in Congressional pay, claiming that $174,000 plus perks a year is totally inadequate. “I think that the American people should know that the members of Congress are underpaid,” Moran told ROLL CALL. “And you know, I understand that it’s widely felt that they underperform; but the fact is that this is the board of directors for the largest economic entity in the world, and a lot of members can’t even afford to live decently when they’re at their job in Washington.”
COMMENTS:
And I thought Obama had family jewels. The answer, Mr. Moran, is short, sweet and
simple: If you don’t like the pay, get another job. If you underperform, why should you expect me
to pay you more even if you are on the board of directors of the biggest failing
economy in the world? According to your
way of thinking, job performance has nothing to do with pay. Are you a member of the S.E.I.U. or are you
bucking for a job in the White House? Get lost. Do not pass go, do not collect $200; just get lost.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. Obama is upset that the major T.V. networks individually
refused to grant him a prime time slot to celebrate his supposed 7.1 million ObamaCare
signups in. Don’t they have to grant him
the time slot by law? (Corey ~ Anderson,
CA)
A. No, they do not.
It is interesting to note that for the first time in my memory they have
not bent over backwards to accommodate the wishes of his royal highness, King
Obama the 1st. And this includes liberal
networks as well as FOX.
Q. Mozilla has forced out its Chief Executive Officer
because he contributed to an anti-gay marriage group in California a few years
ago. How do you feel about that? (Oroville ~ Franktown, NV)
A. Mozilla can force out underperforming executives at its
will. It does not, however, have the
right to dictate to its employees what their political or religious beliefs may
be. I support the Mozilla boycott. I’m looking for another browser source, excluding
Explorer.
Q. Harry Reid says the latest Ft. Hood shooting should be a
renewed call for gun control in this country.
How do you answer that? (Morgan ~
Fredonia, KS)
A. I agree. Since
there are too many police shootings in Albuquerque, all police officers and
sheriff deputies there should be relieved of their right to carry a weapon, on
or off duty; same with all Army personnel, since we have two major shootings
involving the Army. My major question is
this: How did two Army personnel at Ft. Hood who were both observed to have
mental issues get their hands on guns?
As for Mr. Reid, I agree with his position as well and suggest that he set an example by ordering his Secret Service
detail to disarm, post haste.
