Get government out of government

Let’s face it. Our government is as corrupt and dysfunctional as any in history before it went the way of the Dodo bird. Look at the scandals that dominate the news today. The department that is supposed to be the government watchdog has run amok looting millions upon millions of tax dollars as if they were some privileged class that was allowed to take as much as they wanted whenever they wanted. And who the hell knows? Maybe they were.


Whatever the thief Jeff Neely was able to pull off, I’ll bet is only the tip of the iceberg of GSA thievery and debauchery at taxpayer expense – and whatever the GSA pulled off pales at what others are doing. Defense Sec Panetta regrets the cost of his 27 trips home to CA SINCE JULY at taxpayer expense. WTF (Win The Future). 27 trips home since July? Again WTF? He’s looking into how he might reduce costs. Here’s a clue Leon, STAY IN WASHINTON D.C. ON THE WEEKENDS! Robert Gates by comparison traveled home on average three times a year. Panetta reminds me of the one or two boys homesick during Scout summer camp. GROW UP LEON.

As always, we can count on some sycophant military general to stand up for “the boss.” How courageous! Give that man a medal! Screw the troops but stand up for the boss. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, Gen. Martin Dempsey, came to Panetta’s defense:

Let me help the boss here, because if I couldn’t get a hold of him, we’d have a really different relationship. He doesn’t get much rest in California, based on the number of times I know that I’m in contact with him.”

Way to go Marty. You’re doing a heck of a job. Never has a slobbering @$$ kisser said it better. How about Leon just staying in D.C. Marty? Did that idea ever cross your highly trained military mind? Now, let’s hear your defense of the troops peeing on and photographing dead terrorists in Afghanistan. "Help the boss out," but not a word for your troops in trouble but for condemnation. COWARD.

Leon’s expenditures pale in comparison to Moochele who, when not telling us what and when to eat, hails government travel as if she were hailing a Chicago taxi. Queen Mooch has twice ordered up military aircraft so that she could beat the P-BO to family vacation spots by a couple of hours. Good use of taxpayer dollars Mooch. No doubt Marty will be issuing a statement in defense of the Mooch leaving just a bit early so that she can get dinner ready for the Commander in Chief after one of his 80 or so rounds of golf. A statement like that from Marty would solidify his reputation as possibly the greatest @$$ kisser ever.

Then there is the Secret Service scandal. Use to be that if a writer or Hollywood wanted to give a guy instant credibility, they would make him a Secret Service agent. Now they, like everything associated with the government except the rank and file military, are nothing more than a punch line.

This is what happens when a government gets so big it cannot administer itself. This is what happens when people make a comfortable living off of the government, more comfortable than those paying for it. This is what happens when citizens accept a ruling class because they were “elected.” FLASH AMERICA a ruling class no matter who they are, is STILL a ruling class. This is what happens when citizens only get upset when they can’t get a four bar signal from the WiFi or their cable goes down.
