WE NEED THE SENATE TO PASS THE UNEMPLOYMENT EXTENSION AND SOON,,,
You could just go out and get a job, you know. That way you would be contributing to society and not sucking from the government tit.
IMPEACH GEORGE BUSH! A TRAITOR! A LIAR! A THEIF! PUT HIM IN THE STREET! EVERYONE SPEAK OUT! DON'T JUST WAIT FOR SOMETHING TO HAPPEN. GET UP AND MAKE IT HAPPEN!
Who was the criminal who tried (in vain) to educate you?
The President has done nothing that would warrant impeachment. He hasn't lied under oath like his predecessor did.
Oh well, I guess George W. Bush won't be able to run again in 2008 due to his marked lack of popularity in the ranks of the Dumb Masses. Or maybe he can't because of term limits.
BTW, If you strike the CapsLock key one time you won't be posting in ALL CAPS like a moron.
I have been out of work since November 2007. My unemployment benefits ran out last month. I am 53 old and have work hard all my life. I've paid taxes all my life, and this is how my country is treating me. Unbelievable. Totally disgusting. So anytime I am not looking for a job, I will spend time and dedicate to making sure any politician that votes nay on not extending unemployment insurance will be out of a job their next term by informing the public of their decision in every forum available. I will encourage others to do so as well.
Here's a website that requires no skills other than those you already possess to make money on the internet.

It's not a government handout, so you know you can count on it.
I have been out of work since November 2007. My unemployment benefits have run out. My money has run out. I unable to obtain employment and need more time to continue my search for employment. I am at risk of losing my car. Gas prices continue to rise daily. I am highly skilled in my field. My State Rhode Island is one of the hardest hit with unemployment. I am 53 old and have worked hard all my life. I've paid taxes all my life, and this is how my country is treating me. Unbelievable. The Senate, House and President continue to play games as peoples life's are put in jeopardy. Totally disgusting. So all the extra time that I am not spending on looking for employment, I will dedicate to making sure any politician that votes nay on not extending unemployment insurance will be out of a job their next term by informing the public of their decision in every forum available. I will encourage others to do so as well. It is time in this country for the people to take control of their government again and take it out of the hands of the uninformed, out of touch, uncompassionate, ignorant, greedy, self absorbed fools that are the true terrorists ruining this country. Try to remember you work for all the PEOPLE of this country! And all those PEOPLE will remember how you vote on this issue.
You could just go out and get a job, you know. That way you would be contributing to society instead of eating like pig at the government trough. Just a friendly suggestion from one of those pulling the wagon to one of those who are riding in it.
