$15 Billion mistake

The government just reported that $15 Billion in unemployment benefits were wrongfully paid out and that another $17 Billion was wrongfully paid out last year! The government cannot manage a damn thing!

Does anyone really believe the NOBama healtcare bill is going to be a good thing? It will be a major money pit and suck the average american dry. It will easily surpass the mistakes made by the idiots running unemployment benefits.

Ironic, isn't it. The Pentagon has been famous forever for mismanaging money, even though "providing for the common defense" is the first, and oldest function of the federal government (the one they have the MOST experience with), even with entropy on their side the federal government can not economically destroy things and kill people.

Yet, the same leftists who bitterly complain about money spent by the defense department want the same government to be put in charge of virtually every aspect of our lives.

Big brother with his big club is a necessary evil, but we'd damned sure better keep him out on the wall guarding the gate than stumbling around in our kitchens, bedrooms. . . or operating rooms.

Yep, along with the $23B BP put away to pay for the oil spill clean up, never, ever heard an accounting of where all of that is. . . but I'm sure we'll see the same large contributions to "O" from BP that happened in '08.

The only thing we should have rebuilt in Iraq was the oil infrastructure so we could pump it home while the assholes killed each other wholesale in the cities.

the BP fund was a trust, and belonged to them, to use as needed, if needed

Oil barons contributing to politicians is nothing new btw ... check the % given to the right vs the left and get back to us

Nothing to get back on, BP was a major contributor to "O" who shielded them from the courts, limited media access and volunteers from the clean up, pay for play happens all the time in politics, but it's never been as blatant as with this regime.

Rather than rely on cut and paste how about saying straight out what part of my post is not correct?
Hint: Because you can't.

You have repeatedly demonstrated that you have nothing at your disposal but poor reading comprehension skills and school yard style name calling. Are you even old enough to be here?

if I say xyz, you most likely will want proof, If I offer BLATANT proof you want me to say straight out what I think

your comment about this admin being the most blatant is incorrect as evidenced by FACT, not opinion. If thats not good enough for you pal, then I revert back to partisan hack. The rest of your kindergarten comment isnt deserving of a response.

Have a nice day

Over $1.5B to Soylndra and kindred "green" companies that donated heavily to Obummer. And that's without even looking for proof.

Bye Comrade, you're too boring to keep off ignore.
