Politically pretty neutral, This lady is pissed

Please forgive the language and I did not verify the truth of the background info, but the message is something I can totally get behind!!!



I Think She Is Pissed - Whoa!!!!!!!


THIS SENIOR CITIZEN NAILED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Alan Simpson, Senator from Wyoming , Co-Chair of Obama's deficit commission, calls senior citizens the Greediest Generation as he compared "Social Security" to a Milk Cow with 310 million teats.







Pardon this language, but I am sending this on just as I received it.

This senior should be an inspiration to us all to write somewhat similar letters to liberal legislators serving "our" districts.

August, 2010.

Here's a response in a letter from PATTY MYERS in Montana ... I think she is a little ticked off! She also tells it like it is!



Listen up. Direct from Ms Myers:

"Hey Alan, let's get a few things straight..

1. As a career politician, you have been on the public dole for FIFTY YEARS.

2. I have been paying Social Security taxes for 48 YEARS (since I was 15 years old. I am now 63).

3 My Social Security payments, and those of millions of other Americans, were safely tucked away in an interest bearing account for decades until you political pukes decided to raid the account and give OUR money to a bunch of zero ambition losers in return for votes, thus bankrupting the system and turning Social Security into a Ponzi scheme that would have made Bernie Madoff proud..

4. Recently, just like Lucy & Charlie Brown, you and your bilk pulled the proverbial football away from millions of American seniors nearing retirement and moved the goalposts for full retirement from age 65 to age 67. NOW, you and your shill commission is proposing to move the goalposts YET AGAIN.

5. I, and millions of other Americans, have been paying into Medicare from Day One, and now you morons propose to change the rules of the game. Why? Because you idiots mismanaged other parts of the economy to such an extent that you need to steal money from Medicare to pay the bills.

6. I, and millions of other Americans, have been paying income taxes our entire lives, and now you propose to increase our taxes yet again. Why? Because you incompetent bastards spent our money so profligately that you just kept on spending even after you ran out of money. Now, you come to the American taxpayers and say you need more to pay off YOUR debt.
To add insult to injury, you label us "greedy" for calling "bull****" on your incompetence. Well, Captain Bull****, I have a few questions for YOU.

1. How much money have you earned from the American taxpayers during your pathetic 50-year political career?

2. At what age did you retire from your pathetic political career, and how much are you receiving in annual retirement benefits from the American taxpayers?

3. How much do you pay for YOUR government provided health insurance?

4.. What cuts in YOUR retirement and healthcare benefits are you proposing in your disgusting deficit reduction proposal, or, as usual, have you exempted yourself and your political cronies?

It is you, Captain Bull****, and your political co-conspirators called Congress who are the "greedy" ones. It is you and your fellow nutcases who have bankrupted America and stolen the American dream from millions of loyal, patriotic taxpayers. And for what? Votes. That's right, sir. You and yours have bankrupted America for the sole purpose of advancing your pathetic political careers. You know it, we know it, and you know that we know it.
And you can take that to the bank, you miserable s o b!!

Dementia can be a terrible thing to suffer from.

Perhaps she should pay attention to which party is trying to preserve social security and medicare.

Pretty funny article though, no doubt a fox viewer

Another fox viewer no doubt

No doubt the woman missed the part,oh, 10 years ago that the bush era tax cuts were supposed to be TEMPORARY, and going back to the FORMER tax rates were what was intended to happen.

Now tell, how often is THAT juicy little tidbit included on fox noise when they rile the uninformed with tax raising propaganda?

I don't think so. You probably can't even get Fox News in Montana - way to cold. But down here in Indiana we can get Fox News and we have heard that "Juicy Tidbit" about the 10 year old Bush Tax Cuts on Fox News, maybe not everyday, but often. Local2ED, why don't you get real for a while and just hush up! I mean, Democrat or Republican, but you're just off the wall. You just don't get it!

I took her criticism to be all inclusive. :shrug:

Sure it is all inclusive. Democrats don't have a TOTAL lock on idiocy. Right now they are pretty far ahead, but the Repubs will probably catch up (someday). If that Bush tax cut of 10 years ago is so much in your face, why didn't the Democrat controlled House, Senate and WH not change it. They didn't even bring it up! Oh please do tell me why? Again, Oh please do tell me why?

You know, some of you idjet guys could learn a lot by listening to Fox news an hour or so a day. Take that 7PM (ESDT) hour with Brett Baier and just get a good picture of WTF is going on in this country. You get a good viewpoint from guys like Charlie Krauthammer and demo balance with Wan Williams. There are a whole bunch of good people on that program from both the left and right He always ends it with this word of truth, "As always, fair, balanced and unafraid" and you could really learn a lot

Isn't learning and TV an oxymoron?

When was social security ever in an interest bearing account? Never to my knowledge.
