Isn't that what we said?

Too tired to fight about it.

Joanne and I took a road trip today to visit with family. Traffic moved pretty good all the way up and we had a great visit. Family, food, and good times. Traffic didn't move as good on the way back so we turned on the radio to listen check the traffic. It was the usual delays due to rain on I-5.

We left the radio on and listened to a "money line" type of talk show. I forget the guy's name, some dude that goes back to the Reagan era. He called the latest actions Reaganomics 2.0 and Tea Partyonmic 1.0. What struck me odd is the fact that he stated the changes were approved on Thursday and he was already stating that they are responsible for things getting better financially already. About 1.5 days later. OK, I know this is bullshit but it is they way things are played in politics and media these days.

What really shocked me was this guy describing the benefit to "personal income" by the extension of the Bush tax cuts. They were rarely referred to as personal income before the big compromise package was passed but it was a surprise to hear them referred to this way so quickly.

Yes Virginia, there is Santa Clause. He has a sleigh pulled by the working class to deliver bags of cash to the rich.

Take a minute to visit Old iSkool and The Goal Farm too!
I am sticking with this hands-free data-entry device and still would like someone to volunteer to edit this blog. I'm doing the best I can but it's hard to catch my mistakes and all the times the software doesn't understand me.
