Jeff Flake, my Congressman voted no.

I am disappointed that he voted no.  I didn’t vote for him in 2008.

Yes, I am worried about the hugh debt and am angry that Congress and the President aren’t willing to be smart with their spending, but continue to put programs in these Bills that shouldn’t be there just so they can get a vote. 

They bail out Wall Street,  continue to barrow money for their WARS, and more pork.  Yet, when it comes down to the American people they would continue to let us suffer. 

If we are smart we should be able to budget our money better than we do.  WE can’t continue on the same path of spending like their is on end in sight.  We are going bankrupt and yet, instead of being smart in our spending, we continue to spend, spend, spend.

These brave men and women did their duty as Americans and yet we have a government who once again doesn’t care about the people.  They care more about making everything a political issue. 

Americans should come first, but they don’t.  Our nation should be first but it isn’t either.  Both corporate political parties are guilty of this.

    Chrisy, considering you didn’t vote for this guy how can you be disappointed in him. In fact this vote was what you expected because otherwise you would have voted for him. Make sense?

    Of course you have a government that doesn’t care for you, they are too busy saving the jews, occupying foreign countries and raping third world nations of the mineral wealth. You can’t seriously expect them to worry about the ‘patriots’ who keep the home fires burning, that surely is asking too much.

    P.S. I hope you are doing better with your health, its no fun debating someone who is not on top of their game. Get well soon and give the dog a bone from me.

    Gar.
