TWO THINGS that bother me about this 'government'

[Rosa Luxemburg]

People should get their heads round this once and for all:

1. We are spending billions on war and protecting our oil and poppy assets.

2. We are not coming down hard on corporations and individuals who are dodging being taxed (because they can).


I'm sick and tired of this party (Democratic Party) pandering to the rich and powerful, special interests.


I'm sick and tired of the federal government making cuts that attacks children, old people and the poor.


Get a grip Obama!

1. Unrec'd

1. We are spending billions on war and protecting our oil and poppy assets.

So now, in addition to protecting oil sources, we're protecting drug supplies?

[Rosa Luxemburg]

2. yes we are

[brooklynite]

3. Well, I have to admit your evidence is insurmountable...

[Rosa Luxemburg]

4. so you condone spending billions on a futile 'war?'

[brooklynite]

5. No, but I dispute your argument (absent evidence) that it was to protect drug and oil interests

[Rosa Luxemburg]

7. why else did the US invade Iraq?

[jaxx]

6. He's got a grip.

A better place to put that anger would be towards the congress that tries to stop any meaningful legislation.
