8. The trouble is that the ones who will suffer will be those often poor and needy people |
|
who live in those states who had nothing to do with electing those legislators or governor, people who struggle just to make it day to day. It's easy for those who have nothing at risk to make such proposals.

6. I think the federal government shouldn't waste time |

and just redistribute (uh oh - there's that SCARY word) it among states that want to get somewhere. If Arnold and Crist are willing to work. Good, Obama has extended a hand. And they're willing to talk. I especially appreciated Crist's statement that we do have a national leader and his name is Barack Obama.
No time to waste among knuckle-dragging neanderthal fucks like Jindal. Too bad a lot of people in his state will get screwed. Maybe his state should learn a lesson or two and stop electing nut cases to head their states. I really hate that guy. Great, an Indian-American gets elected to head a state and he's a fucking lunatic. Yecchhh! Hopefully even if he runs, Obama will keep the great Indian-American support he had this time.
