I live in a city that's economy is entirely based on government contracts. The fraud and abuse is staggering, but I never hear Republicans talk about cutting "defense" waste. It is nice to live here as the money always rolls in, no matter the deficit or the economy. There are always jobs available. But I know what it was like before the government came in, a small farming community.
One of the wasteful things that drives me mad is airfares. Travelers that are on the state dime travel business class all the time. I cannot afford to as a business class ticket cost about five times a coach ticket. I never hear the right complain about that.

Have you ever heard of a speakers history? Do you wear a stupid sign on your forehead?mif not get one! Boehner drank too much Black Jack today.

I saw a clip on the news today of Boehner criticizing Obama's bombing campaign against ISIS by saying ISIS can't be defeated without boots on the ground. Well Mr. Speaker, if you truly believe that and have balls bigger than a gnat's, why don't you introduce a resolution in the House authorizing the President to send in American combat forces if he deems it necessary

Oh, but I will have to disagree with you. We are NOT both a Democracy and a Republic.

The definition of a Republic is: a state in which the sovereign power is vested in representatives chosen by the people.

The definition of a Democracy is in three parts: 1. Rule by the people.2. A community so governed. 3. The quality of being Democratic.

Actually we are a Constitutional Republic, which means we are a Republic that vests sovereign power in representatives that are chosen by the people to govern by the Constitution. This is where we have allowed our elected representatives to stray from what we are to expect of them. We now elect them and they in turn ignore what our Constitution demands from them.

There is a horrible trend going on among R TPers running for congress, state legislatures, or even The presidency. We can easily come across case after case of Rs lying to the American people to get elected and then passing legislation or blocking legislation that they said they were either against or avoided comment on. Some of their classic examples are that they all ran on creating jobs in 2010&2012. You know,the 11 million that Bushcheney lost or sold to China for their war loans. Or now,how Buscheney predicted that if we left Iraq all hell would break loose? Yet,he signed the agreement that set a timetable for our leaving? Guess he would know about the utter mess they created. Remember the 3 month then 6 month then Mission Accomplished crap. Remember the promise Rummpsfeld made that our troops were prepared for Afghanistan and Iraq until he found out about rap lad side bombs belatedly? Of course the P de Resistance, are the 935 lies Bucheney's told to get us to go to war in Iraq! The whopper was the nuclear bomb-bomb.starting and finishing with yellow cake. We also find out now that Reagan gave Hussein the keys to Chemical Weapons and WP.fowitz,Rumppsfeld,Cheney knew all about it. They also knew he used all he had against the Iranians and Kurds.
Now everything is forgiven and bucheney is regaining his popularity among stupid people. Whitewash,whitewash,whitewash.
Then there is Romney. He couldn't say two words without lying twice. You know, he and Bucheney's shipped millions of good paying jobs to China along with technology. Romney even went to China and bought a s***e factory and sold it to one of his investors. He felt that the Chinese were tring to get in rather than get out because the barbed wire was pointed in. No mistake. He was told that the barbed wire was there to prevent outside Chinese from breaking in. Is he a dimwit along with being a liar. Bush 1 appears to be not as bad except for the " Read his lips" episode and lying about oil $$$ paying for the Kuwait War.
I'm not forgetting Clinton and his language difficulties which was another form of lie.but don't forget, he did not take us to war in either Afghanistan or Iraq.
Also,lets not leave out Rumppsfeld. This complete i***t approved military adventures in very difficult places. Since when did 5000 mile supply routes become insignificant especially thru choke points like The Khyber Pass and The Straight of Hormuz. Anybody see the huge junkyard pile of burned out supply and gasoline trucks on both sides of the Khyber.
The. There is Reagan. This puke lied about about the Missile Gap. He lied about our military inadequacies. He spent $$$ frivolously on Star Wars,tripling the National Debt. He gave Hussein CW and may have prompted him to go to war with Iran and then abandoned him. Reagan also didn't tell Americans he delayed the release of the Iranian Hostages for at least 3 months to prevent Carter from getting credit for their release.
Now,RTPers are blaming President Obama for everything their policies have caused. Cruz caused the Shutdown. Boehner caused all the problems economically with the Default. Ryan lies like a rug concerning his plans for his non-budget. It's obvious or should be that Rs and TPers can't produce a real budget. All else is camouf**ge
Boehner now says that the house has produced 40 jobs bills that the Senate is sitting on the CBO states that none of them produce a single job and probably will cost jobs. Remember the RTPer promises? They will create more jobs than President Obama! Where in China Romney?
.. None Of The 40 Jobs Bills That John Boehner Claims House Republicans Passed Create Jobs

Speaker of the House John Boehner is claiming that the House Republicans have passed 40 jobs bills that Harry Reid refuses to past in the Senate, but a look at the bills reveals that not a single one of them creates jobs.

Yesterday, Rep. Boehner (R-OH) wrote an op-ed on Time’s website that blamed Democratic Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid for the state of the economy.

Boehner wrote

In the last year and a half, the House has passed more than 40 bills aimed at creating jobs, supporting wage earners, and easing the financial pains that working families all over America are suffering with in President Obama’s economy. Where are these bills now? They are stuck in the Senate. Why they are stuck, is a question for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.
These bills are not thousands of pages long, nor are they partisan attempts to slam massive, new, and unwanted federal government programs down the throats of the American people. We all remember the disaster that became Obamacare. Passing something before we know what’s in it may be the Pelosi Doctrine, but it’s certainly not a t***sparent way to govern.
Instead these common-sense jobs bills, many of them bipartisan, are aimed at strengthening small businesses, allowing working moms and dads to keep more of their wages, and helping our seniors and our veterans. But instead of working with Republicans on the American people’s priorities in September, Senator Reid will instead focus on his obsession with the Koch brothers. This obsession is costing our economy jobs and has turned the United States Senate into a legislative graveyard.


The list of “jobs bills” reveals that the legislation falls into three categories. The largest category is tax breaks and gifts for the oil, coal, and natural gas industries. The second category is regulatory repeal, which is also another gift for big business. The last category is attacks on Obamacare. Boehner’s jobs bills for veterans increased fees for services to vets.

Nowhere on the list of jobs bills that Boehner wrote about is there an actual real live jobs bill.

Boehner has given a list of 40 bills that fit the Republican ideology, but history tells us that cutting taxes for the wealthy, giving gifts to special interests, and rolling back regulations are three policy choices that do not create jobs. Speaker Boehner’s jobs bills would not put more people back to work. The House Republican definition of a jobs bill is different from what most people think of as job creation.

The only job that John Boehner is trying to protect with this bogus list is his own.

FINALLY, THE TITLE FOR BIGGEST LIAR IN P**********L HISTORY HAS TO GO TO BUCHENEY.. NO ONE WILL EVER GET AWAY WITH THEIR NUCLEAR BOMB LIE AGAIN UNLESS WE LET THE R TPERS TAKE CONTROL OF GOVERNMENT.

***********
Decisions about school documentation are not made by me. They are made by the duly elected govt. officials. This is how Democracy works. If you have questions about how the Calif. Governor, Attorney General, and the state legislature deal with such matters you would have to take that up with them.

Apparently Californians approve of how the Democrats handle such matters. Otherwise the Democrats would not hold all the statewide offices as well as the two U.S. Senate seats.

Have a nice night.

Another long time politician is v**ed out, which is the best example of true term limits.
When the people who v**e don't v**e for incumbents, they leave office and become lobbyists but that is another issue.
Here on good old OPP, there is constant apping and blather about imposing term limits on everyone except their own, personal favorite politician.
So far this primary season, one democrat and four republicans lost their jobs.
Proof that v**ers are smarter than bloggers, commenters, pundits and media fools.
