"A billion here, a billion there ... pretty soon it adds up to real money." Everett Dirksen, (deceased), former US senator

Dirksen was being sarcastic. Today's politicians think spending more of our money is their job.

With nothing to show for his efforts! The world must be truly grateful for his efforts to reduce greed & consumerism or is it with a very simple process to also increase indebtedness and poverty.... Hay this man is a genius... If one could reverse engineer his actions then reverse the process, become a multi-sextillion(because I like sex)-trillion-billionaire with an investment of less than my current debt!

its under the same concept of "you dont or cant get credit unless your in debt",,,he's jus looking out for our future "credit report"

Year but if you are talking of the "rogue trader" he was paid to do it. What is the essence behind "W's" idiocy, or is he being sensible?

Is that budget of W, for 1 year? then add at least 1billion a week plus the undeclared other expenditures - "Wee'll all be rooned!!!!"

[Kay9]

I dont know what "being rooned" means, But if it requires lubrication, I suggest you get lubricated.

The poem is in the "poetry thread" , but I can't find it now - nor remember its (the threads) name had lots of poetry though.... one of A.B. Pattersons poems of Australian bush life a hundred or more years ago...

its either him or global warming,,,,,,the death he causes will at least be quicker

[masalai]

But I have been told that drowning in warm water can be quite "peaceful" and "W's" way seems soooo full of anguish, fear, hatred, stupidity - the world....

[Kay9]

Pencil me in for the drowning thing.

[the1much]

but we wont "volunteer" to drown ourselves

[masalai]

Gee, for a moment I thought someone was offering to drown W??? because he wouldn't volunteer? then I saw the "e"

[the1much]

um,,,,,,,stop standing on ya head in that bucket of water,,,,i was jus kiddin man

[masalai]

Who said anything about me drowning? I just asked a question.... doesn't mean I will, or, even considering it.

Gees I got another fright, my thumb must have moved the cursor when I brushed on the "touch pad" and refused to let me allocate points till etc?.... I am not dead - just smell that way occasionally after eating baked beans

Money is nothing to a government -its just a peice of paper that they made. When they do it, it is legal. To us it is everything but to them ------- They have to spend it to get it back to us.
Dont tell me its not impossible to print a couple of billion one night, no one will know.

Drowning is not calm and peacefull in warm water I do it to rats frequently and they dont like it.

Hay I thought you were going to India?
