My letter to my senators: Tax Cuts Passed.
A copy of each to Snowe and Collins:



Thankyou so much for voting for the tax cuts yesterday. That $46 is going to go a long way in this household. Especially since we have no health insurance, stagnant jobs, gas is $3 a gallon, general cost of living has sky-rocketed, and the national debt, well that's doing just great isn't it? Wow, I wonder how many diapers $46 will buy my baby when he/she is born in November. I guess maybe by then, I'm going to have bigger problems, because I'll probably be homeless since I can't even pay my hospital and doctors bills and the mortgage at the same time.

Keep thinking of that insanely rich base that holds the republicans up right now, but remember it's the middle class that has more votes come November.

2. Thanks Maddy
shit, I'm some friggin' pissed about this.

And how the hell did we end up with republican senators from Maine anyway? Most republicans I know, can't stand them, and neither can the dems. Where did their votes come from?

3. Congratulations on your Bubbie-toBe!
Mine was born in January. We're feeling the pinch so badly that we may in fact have to file bankruptcy-

but wait! No, that extra $46 should take care of us!!!

At first I was really worried about borrowing money but I should have realized that's the American Way. I wonder if America can declare bankruptcy and file chapter 13. What will the Chinese do with all our IOU's?

4. LOL,
I don't think that America can file bankruptcy, not with the new laws that were inacted, to again screw the rest of us that truely needed to file bankruptcy and weren't abusing the system.

Congrats to you too! And don't spend that $46 in one spot!

5. Thanks!
My mom went to Maine last year and said that everywhere she went people were talking about how much they hated Bush. That, and how pretty she said everything there is, makes me want to visit Maine some day.

7. everyone I know hates him
and many of my customers complain daily about him. No, he's not very much liked up here. Which makes no sense as to why we have republican senators.

6. Hey, since the stock market is doing so "well", I was

... thinking of taking our $46 and buying some...

I am stunned that this passed... I guess I shouldn't be but I really thought people we're "wising up" to the Chimps in office, but I guess not our senators... May their each pay with their jobs come November...

8. they have no "balls"
I don't think I'm stunned at anything any more. I'm just getting more and more pissed off.
