Send in your money the GSA party planning committee needs it

Geez, where to start? OK if you don’t have your taxes in yet, today is the day. Please hurry. Our credit at the National Bank of China is running low and the GSA is planning another “conference” and needs the money ASAP.


The big problem here is not with the GSA. The big problem here is with government regulations that prohibit the immediate suspension without pay of people who use their government credit cards for personal use and tax payer dollars as if it were confetti. Once the investigation is complete, these GSA thieves are likely to loose their jobs but maintain their accrued retirement and saved leave. WTF (win the future)?

Clearly the people at the top should be put in jail for grand theft. The video kings and other GSA employees who par took of the GSA largess, should be suspended without pay for six months. All the gifts and anything else that can be recouped should be under penalty of a fine and jail time. The stuff, year books, videos, pictures, coins etc. could be auctioned off on e-bay to recoup some of the money and send a strong message about how government civil “servants” are expected to conduct themselves while on the public dime.

Perhaps government philanthropist, Warren Buffet, would buy the whole lot for the million or so plus that it cost tax payers. That might go a long way to assuage Warren’s faux grief at not paying enough in taxes, even the legitimate ones he owes but oddly refuses to pay while whining he doesn’t pay enough. Better to make a lot of noise about wanting to pay more in taxes than actually doing it, huh Warren. Better to have some BS Demo-Dope campaign bill named after you, as if you’d pay the tax rather than dump the affected money into a tax shelter the day the bill became law, than just writing a damned check.

Warren, you are not fooling anyone. You are a fake and an old wind bag - a very rich one, but none the less, a fake and an old wind bag. Hey, leave out the “old” and that’s a pretty good description the P-BO and his entire administration.

Happy Birthday Pope Benedict
Pope Benedict turned 85 recently. Archbishop Luigi Bettazzi indicated that Benedict may resign his post “if the moment arrives when he sees that [his lucidity is] changing.” That would be a great gift to the church he loves.

There is absolutely no reason for these great men to have to remain in office until death. They are not feudal monarchs. There is no set line of succession as in England. If there was a Prince Charles type waiting in the wings to ascend to the papacy, I’d be all for Benedict staying on and even several decades of “Weekend at Benedict’s” to avoid that.

If the time comes, I hope Benedict convenes the College of Cardinals to pick his successor so that he may live out his days in peace and comfort.
