How shocking! Social Security is in worse shape today!

Of course, had we made the reforms President Bush wanted, it would be in much better shape. Instead, thanks to the Democrats, we kicked the can down the road.

So I and my children can deal with it when it collapses, because the current politicians are too selfish and cowardly to do anything about it.

Gee, I wonder what other issue (cough-IRAN-cough) works out just like that?

I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

Whodathunkit?

stay safe.
If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.

But they have eliminated waste, fraud, and abuse right? 

They have but they just redefined so it isn't called waste, fraud, or abuse.
