Nobody ever suggests spending less.

I guess when it’s other people’s money, and you’ve got your own printing press...

I think he could win in Texas, probably not on a national scale, though. Since Senator Hutchison is retiring in 2012, he’s got 4 years to think about it.

Actually the few millions given out to the little people is to hide the billions and billions given out to big business in payment for all those campaign donations.

Exactly, why is it that people like Ted and most of us here on this forum have figured this out but the idiots in D.C. can’t?

To answer my own question people that understand all this and ultimately would be good for this country don’t want hold a political office...I can’t blame them so we are stuck with idiots....

He wouldn’t win, but Nugent for Senator of Texas would be viable, and perhaps a stepping stone to Governor of Texas

Being a former rock star, I am sure he has plenty of skeletons in his closet. But hey, so did Der Slickmeister and he came through smelling like roses.

To make matters worse, they want to give the stimulis to people who never paid taxes. This is how they instill in the public’s mind that welfare is good for the economy.

I guess that means I’d need to move to Texas to vote for him... I’ll give that some thought.

Your answer.........politicos pay damn good money for their advice. Since the advice we offer is for free, the politicos put NO VALUE on our suggestions.

Allow me to cite the Sage of Baltimore

"The government consists of a gang of men exactly like you and me. They have, taking one with another, no special talent for the business of government; they have only a talent for getting and holding office. Their principal device to that end is to search out groups who pant and pine for something they can't get and to promise to give it to them. Nine times out of ten that promise is worth nothing. The tenth time is made good by looting A to satisfy B. In other words, government is a broker in pillage, and every election is sort of an advance auction sale of stolen goods."

"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed -- and hence clamorous to be led to safety -- by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary."

They all get government checks - except Mitt Romney...

Even if you spend all of the money — your money, by the way, coming back to you — it will do little if anything to improve the sagging economy.

It will do wonders for the economy--the economy of China and the economy of Saudi Arabia.
