Re: Democrats cut Billions in Pork

Democrats take it out of one pocket and Republicans take it out of the other. I think it is time for political reform.

Democrats create pork.

Republicans create pork.

Republicans did nothing about it.

If Democrats trim the pork, they "win", and Republicans will try to take the credit...

Don't forget the Republicans that tried to stop it just about a year ago but it was shot down.......
I'll agree though, as I stated prior, there is far too much pork and I hope it does come to a stop....AND it remains stopped....and I really don't care which party does it.

Yep. 'Zactly what I meant. They like to keep us busy so we don't ask questions. Why do you think there are always hundreds of articles and reports with different information on the same subject? Yep.

Doesn't matter.

If Democrats cut it, they'll rightfully get the credit.

And Republicans will still try to take the credit...

If they're smart, they'll wait until next year and obtain credit.

Re: Democrats cut Billions in Pork

Pork needs to be completely eliminated across the board. It is unconstitutional. That was NEVER the intent of the Federal Government and it isn't allowed, but the American people are lazy today or simply don't care or want it to continue.

I don't care which party does it but it needs to be done and I don't have faith in either party to do it.

All you have to do is stop electing the same people. How many of you voted FOR an incumbent this year? I didnt. Stop blaming everyone else but yourself.

Here in Ohio we booted DeWine to the curb.

Will Brown be any better, I hope so but I doubt it,

However I think it sent a message nonetheless, that being..."Quit fucking us or you'll lose your job".... "but only after your term is up in 6 years".

I think he will... but only because I'm a bleeder.

Did you vote for him? If you don't my asking....
