This used to be funny

A little boy prayed to God for weeks for $100. When it didn't come he wrote a letter explaining about his prayer and his wanting $100. He addressed the letter to God USA. The people at the post office decided to send it to the President. After the president read the letter he told his secretary to send the boy $5 thinking that a boy that young would think that was a lot of money.
The boy wrote back thanking God for the money and told him that he shouldn't have sent it through Washington as they kept $95 in taxes.

How close to the truth is that. :shock:

Are you really trying to imply that YOU could spend YOUR money better and more effectively than Washington D.C.? Get real! You would never be able to handle the power that comes with being responsible for trillions of dollars like congress does! You could never make the important decisions regarding millions of people like the chosen few in the Whitehouse! You should fell proud to allow them(politicians) to dictate how and when YOUR money will be spent! How arrogant and selfish of you to even want to use your income and assets to provide for you and your family when so many others are so much smarter and in positions of power to do it for you! Just be thankful they didnt keep it all and send you a bill for services rendered!
On a side note; according to CBO, Obama's proposed budget will be bigger than Bush's was for his entire term! And Obama plans to end the war which was most of the cost of the previous budget! So can ya explain how with all that cash being "saved" from fighting an "un-just" war the new guy has managed to spend more in 4 months than Bush did in 8 years?????

He is a big government, super socialist much like Carter. Carter screwed things up so bad that it cost Democrats 20 of the last 28 yeas in the White house. Obama may cause even greater Political deficit than that at the end of his term.

Hey I just realized there may be a silver lining in that cloud of doom over Washington! :lol:
