More of the same from the administration of change...

President Barack Obama’s administration is rewarding elite campaign donors in the same ways that its predecessors did, helping them win influence and access to power in Washington, according to a Center for Public Integrity investigation published Thursday.

I guess the fact that no one is surprised by this is why you have yet to get a response.

"Change you can Believe in!" Yep, we've gotten it!

While we are waiting, I will mention this. I "might" be going to Italy. You know I am a school bus driver and bus driving pays about as much as unemployment. We have thousands of unemployed here in INdiana, (THANKS TO THE JOB KILLER) but can't get them to trade their unemployment for bus driving. We always need more bus drivers. So I am going to Italy as I am told there is a ship Captain and a few other high level officers who are looking for a job. We don't have big ships, but we do have big buses.

With bus driving experience it sounds as if you would be massively over qualified for ship captain if HE is the ship captain to be compared to.

Driving a school bus takes a seriously responsible person. Is there any cargo more valuable than school children? That captain didn't have that much ability to carry responsibility.

Nononononnonon Larry. You don't get it. He is very serious. He just slipped and fell into the life boat. That is why he wanted to go home. Well, when he gets out Obama will put him on for CZAR in charge of Cruise Ships. Good way to reduce the population - drop that awful climbing unemployment!

The captain seems immensely qualified to run as a Democrat Party candidate.

I guess the dems do need at least one. The republicans have a whole flock of them so it would be fair to have one on the dems side.

Are you planning on driving a bus to Italy?

No, but if you give them long enough, the far left will find a way to blame it on him...
