America is in shambles and it started with Bush and the deregulation of the banks. Under the liberal democratic house, America was sinking fast, until we sent Pelosi and Reed packing. Even though I am a Conservative, the new Republican house has done nothing, zero, ziltch to improve America. With the exception of a few, we need to vote out everyone in Congress and certainly Obama and take this country back. It seems when a Congressman gets elected his or her agenda is getting elected, staying in office and getting reelected. America is sinking fast and no one has a clue how to stop illegals, Crime, the financial mess or the corruption.

It should be against the law for a member of our government to be a lawyer.

Well thats one way to make sure the day gets off to a fiery start. Can't wait to track the results of this string. I do agree that most pols are in it for one thing, and that is to have a long term steady job where results are not expected to be high. Big changes need to be made in Washington.

Try going back to Ronnie Reagan and the deregulation of the oil industry.

Like I said, everyone of them is totally worthless, but do quite well giving the ignorant people a snow job. Reagan deregulated the oil, and Bush deregulated the banks......God help us when Obama deregulates Wallmart. It might then be a requirement we buy nothing made in America.
Being a professional photographer, Austrailia is looking good, with a hop to New Zealand...

And charging you millions for the EPA to do long-term analysis of its environmental impact and cleanup!

I spent some time in my younger years as the president of a small manufacturing firm. I received a call from Walmart, that’s correct Walmart. They were looking for AMERICAN made goods to sell. Don’t believe everything those who hate big business feeds the media.

I love Walmart, I get my dog food there, plastic cups and tee shirts to cut my yard. Like I said, not everything in Walmart is from some other country. They still have groceries, even Organic ones as well. They like a multitude of American corporations, have gone elsewhere because they can make more profits. I actually bought a nice printer there that has great quality, but it was made in Thialand. The problem is the unions, greedy people and Congress for the most part have done America in. This is why I am pulling the plug on them, or most of them. We actually have a few in Congress from Georgia that could save America, but they are few in number. I will consider staying in America if Obama is not reelected and Georgia recedes from the Union. Am I kidding, probably, am I upset, like Sarah Palin said....you betcha!!!!!
Now what did I do with those plane tickets>>>>???

I do think I will be kinder tomorrow....My home heater failed and my girlfriend left me. I had to take back four packages of prints that were awful, but that was not my fault....I am a pro you know. I went to start my car and the battery was drained because I was looking for a package, that had slipped between the seats, the night before, and I left the lights on...I never said I was perfect, know everything and have all the answers....

I am thinking of what I must write tomorrow, even though I have covered almost everything. A brighter day is coming...In November 2012.....

I’m not sure how it happened or when but “profit” has become a dirty word in the eyes of many. Business has to show a profit, they have to keep employees happy, shareholder happy and more taxes and regulations than you can shake a stick at plus benefit packages. I know, I know there are some greedy folks out there but regardless of the attempts by the activists to convince America that greed is the norm it’s not. Manufacturing will come back to America when the environment allows them to be profitable and when we stop treating them like they’re the enemy.

No republican now running is going to beat Obama, and it wouldn't surprise me to see the democrats make gains in both the house and senate.
