Insanity, thy name is AMERICA

It is Saturday (as if you didn't know) -- therefore -- please go to "Some Assembly Required" simply because we have other plans for the day (HOW SELFISH!!)

Please follow link to original. Here are some exerpts to whet your appetite for "the good news" -- by the way, speaking of "good news" did you know our Gov. Perry has invited other Govs. to Texas for a day of "prayer and fasting for America". How TOTALLY INSANE are these people? Also, if you don't think Gov. "Hair" Perry is not thinking (if that's what you call it) about running for Pres. you're asleep.

Oh yeah -- DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES VOTE FOR THIS DIRT BAG!!!!!!

Now, "Some Assembly Required"
-----------------------------------------------------

To abolish slavery, abolish masters.

Is Our Children Learning? Perhaps. A student yearbook in Arkansas lists George W. Bush and his VP as two of the 'worst people of all time'.

One For One: The House GOP is going to cut over $900 million from federal nutrition programs, removing about 500,000 women, children and seniors from the programs. That is about the amount of money the Bush tax cuts give the rich – every week.

Asked & Answered: Will we continue to repeat the economic mistakes of the past? Yes. For 2 years the GOP has insisted that the deficit is the problem, not unemployment. They're going to say it again tomorrow, demanding immediate spending cuts (and thus increased unemployment) as the price of raising the debt limit and avoiding a U.S. default. Then they'll run against Obama blaming the unemployment figures on him.

Pets R Us: There are 38 million households in the US with children and 43 million with dogs.

Revised Standard Version: May saw only 54,000 jobs added to the US economy (while another 39,000 were deducted from the March and April reports). Unemployment rose to 9.1%, but U-6 declined to 15.8% as discouraged job seekers left the labor pool. It would take 250,000 additional jobs every month for the next 66 months to get back to 2007 levels of unemployment. Today the average unemployed person is idle for 39.7 weeks and 1 out of 3 has been unemployed for over a year. Elsewhere, Greek workers have blockaded the Finance Ministry to protest the latest austerity measures.
