A Lump Of Coal To Congress And The Obama Administration

It’s that time of year when we check to see who has been naughty and who has been nice. Santa Congress decided that the rich have been really good this year, so it stuffed them with tax cuts gift cards. Banks and finance companies have been really good, no coal lumps or jail time from the Obama Administration, just wads of money from the government.

On the naughty list:

1. The Unemployed. Some of you get a few more weeks of unemployment benefits. The rest of you fight among yourselves for the few available jobs. Try Iowa or North Dakota, you lazy bums in Michigan and Nevada.

2. Underwater Homeowners. Why did you defraud those poor banks? No bailouts or bankruptcy cramdowns for you. Get another job and pay what you owe, you immoral jerks.

3. Teachers and Firefighters and Police: Sorry, we can’t help the States pay you so we’ll just lay off a bunch of you. Think of it as a way to tell kids you don’t care whether they are safe or educated.

Convincing the unemployed population that it is all THEIR fault.

All the while... our CONgress and lawmakers are ripping off the taxpayers as fast as they can stuff money in their pockets.

This never ends well....

1. The Unemployed. Negotitated extension of benefits in the tax package.

2. Underwater Homeowners. Aggressive programs to help distressed homeowners.

3. Teachers and Firefighters and Police: Stimulus saved large numbers of jobs.

Amazing how this "progessive" publication spends it's time attacking Democrats.

How about a whole coal ROOM full? The type you need to shovel out.
