I am very sorry please accept my apology, karynnj i am tired very tired and all this garbage that is happening in this country started many many years ago.It does not matter anymore whether they are democrat or republican,we the people of this country need to wake up and do it now,one example is my neighbor,he was hanging on by the skin of his teeth when the social security tax kicked back in.When that happened him and his wife lost almost 200 dollars a month,and because of that loss they are now going to lose their home,it's not right period,then you read head lines like this and it makes me wonder if anybody gives a rats butt anymore.We as a country need to fix our own house before we can help the rest of the world.
