We’re Mad As Hell - Now Let’s Band Together

Feigned criticism by Congress, biggest demonstration of b…s…


Every Red-blooded American must see this video. As Mel Brooks said, “It’s good to be the king.” Congressional salaries increased by 80% between 2000 and 2009, from $141,000 to $174,000. American worker’s salaries, meanwhile, have risen approximately 1.5% per annum, from $32,165 to $36,225. That equates to a 12% increase. CEO salaries have skyrocketed to values representing more than 350 times the average employee, or $12 million apiece. In other words, the average CEO needs only work a bit over 6 hours to earn the equivalent of the average, salaried employee.

If you saw the feigned criticism by Congressional committee members recently, you were watching the biggest demonstration of b…s… by the most patronizing scumbags ever assembled in one room. Are you aware that those noble elitists who condemned AIG for giving retention bonuses to employees, also gave retention bonuses to their very own staff? You do the division. Here it is: 200 members of the House of Representatives, including Mr. B.S. (that’s big shot) Barney Frank, disbursed $9.1 million among 2,000 staffers. Their excuse was, a nice incentive to get staff to conserve budgets, and for hard work and long hours. ARE THEY KIDDING or is it that they know we’re just too stupid to realize their double-speak? More than 100 of those recipient staffers already had annual incomes of $100,000. The annual budget for each member of the House runs between $1.3 and $1.9 million. At the end of the year, whatever money is left in the coffers is distributed between staff because, if it isn’t, next year’s budget will be reduced by the amount of unused monies. God forbid that that should ever happen. Oh, yeah, America, those bonuses are doled out of taxpayer cash - yours! So, America, how’s apathy working for you. Either you enjoy your meager wages or you’re just too lazy to get off your sofa to vote these bums out of office. Yeah, I’m being harsh and probably politically incorrect, but if you’re not personally MAD AS HELL, then keep on keeping on. As for me, I’ll be back on the street corners again as often as my back permits. I intend to do all I can before I fade away into that dark night. My kids and grandkids deserve more than what the socialist/radicals in the government and academia think they’re worth. I won’t ask you to join me in my fight. It’s your conscience. You know how to reach me if you care enough. It’s way past time to fire Pelosi, Reid, Frank, Dodd, Feinstein, Waters, Specter, Murtha, Murray, Cantwell, McMorris (yeah, she’s also getting her feet wet with bonuses and pork), and the rest of the bums who can’t run an ice cream stand, let alone a whole country. Bob DeMotte has written books, magazine articles and newspaper columns. He’s been a guest on hundreds of radio and television talk shows and is an outspoken defender of America’s sovereignty and freedoms. Bob is an instructor of continuing education for marriage counselors, social workers, nurses and psychologists, but always puts America above all pursuits. Bob DeMotte (SECRETS and LIES)has been actively involved in helping the underdog fight for his or her rights since 1984. One of the few individuals who actually reads a legislative bill, he reports the details here and lets you decide. Bob intends to run for the U.S. Congress in 2010 in the Washington State Fifth District. America’s future is being sold down the drain by politicians who are giving up her sovereignty every day and by those who refuse to stop them. As a strong Independent Conservative, Bob DeMotte will fight to give our children and grandchildren the safety and independence they deserve. Bob can be reached at: bobdemotte@hotmail.com
