I realize I may just be a cynical old Washington reporter, but I can’t help but think that Gov. Sanford didn’t admit the truth until some bright young aid took him aside and reminded him that within 24 hours the only question would be, are you so stupid you can’t tell what continent you are on, or are you a lying, cheating bastard?
Aren’t 49 States Plenty? Why Pay for CA?

Is CA a Third World Country now and do the rest of us have to pay for it? Why wait for the big earthquake when the state is destroyed. Wouldn’t we be better off with 49 states NOW?
We all know that SOME Californians are among the greediest most arrogant people on the planet.
Primitive tribesmen won’t let their picture be taken because they think the camera steals their soul.
Don’t Paris, Britney, and most issues of People prove this?
Yesterday 60% of California voters rejected paying their bills but they still want the government services they get now.
Are 60% of CA residents now celebrities entitled to everything they want for free? Have they ALL caught the disease?
Will the rest of US have to pay for their lifestyle while they laugh at us hicks?
What do you think? Are you willing to pay CA teachers, police, firemen, and hospital staff for some of the richest people on Earth?

Make Credit Card Reform RETROACTIVE

Are You Mad As Hell Yet?
Congress and the White House are pushing for credit card reform but it won’t take effect for a year.
I’ve got a brilliant idea (he wrote modestly) why not ask your congressperson to make the new rules retroactive say to January 1?
You know, roll-back rate increases without notice, restore credit limits on good customers, etc. Every thing we thought we were getting when we gave them nearly a Trillion $$ in cash and tax breaks.
Normally retroactive laws are unfair, but the banks do it to us all the time, why not return the favor?
Start by dropping your senator an email or give them a friendly phone call suggesting The Credit Card Accountability, Responsibility and Disclosure Act (“the Credit CARD Act”) be made retroactive to January 1.
You’ll find Senator’s names and office addresses here:http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm
Why not? Both the Senators and the banks are taking our money – encourage the one to force the other to respect us.
It only seems fair.

Abusive Credit Card Companies

How do you feel about the way we as tax payers have given massive amounts of credit and money to the banks in order to get them to stimulate business?
Do you feel different if you get your credit line cut for no reason or find your interest rate increased from 15% to 30% even if you never missed a payment?
It burns me up and, if it doesn’t make you “mad as hell” then I have to wonder which bank you work for.
Am I alone on this?
