And we wonder why nothing can get done.
So, Pete Sessions, (R)etard - Texas was on MTP yesterday, and he was asked about the Republican agenda. He said that Republicans wanted to “balance the budget” and that we need to “live within our means”.
Ok…admittedly, I’m pretty fond of such ideas, go figure.
But funny thing about living within you means…it requires choices to be made. Barring a Bill-Gates-esque income, one simply can not do it all. The fact is that when one has X money, and the things one wants to do/have/buy cost 2X, then one must eliminate some items from the plan, or find ways to increase X.
That seems fairly obvious one would think…but apparently it is no more obvious to Pete Sessions than it is to any of the morons in Washington who got us here in the first place.
Not only does Sessions refuse to address the request for specific choices that would be made, he ignores REPEATED specific examples! He is HANDED the answers, avd is incapable even of simple regurgitation.
THIS is the ignorance and/or apathy (I’m unsure which at this point…perhaps both) that runs our nation.
Oh…and the best part? Mr. “balance the budget and live within our means” voted FOR the bailout.
