Not sure if this has been posted here. One of my FB friends had this link up. I hadn't seen this before, so I thought I would share.

Ask Paul Lyin' for a job, and he'll offer you a piece of candy and a Green Bay Packers schedule. Nice guy.

There are between 237 and 260 millionaires in Congress, if they were really patriotic public servants, they would forgo their salaries and benefits and put that money back into the public coffers!

I think I'd really like to have some people in Congress that actually have callouses on their hands from work than paper cuts from handling our lives.

(692 posts)hard for what they have. I'm tired of the rich people being in power. They are supposed to be our "representatives", but how on earth can you represent a group of people you have nothing in common with (silver spoon babies) and don't give a spit about? It seems to be all about the power, the lobbying connections, and the "speaking" fees they can charge after they've ruined the country for the rest of us peons!
Oh I wish we could get the money out of the elections!! But, I'm a dreamer!!
