Subject: Fwd: SS sad state of affairs
HERE IS
ONE TO TWIST YOUR TWINKIE -- if you don't know how to curse yet,"I am certain
you will after you read this one"!
According to the Trustees
for the Social Security Administration,
"THERE WILL
NOT
BE A COST OF LIVING INCREASE FOR THE NEXT
TWO YEARS IN SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFITS.
ADDITIONALLY THEY
WILL RAISE YOUR CO-PAY FOR YOUR RX
MEDICARE BENEFITS"!
They, the Congress ( BOTH "REPUBLICAN
AND DEMOCRATS TOGETHER") say no increase is warranted because of the
losses in gross national product and other cute things...
NOW HERE
SPORTS FANS THIS IS THE ONE THAT WILL FLIP YOU OUT!! --
THE SOCIAL
SECURITY ADMINISTRATION IS FUNDING
TWENTY FOUR MILLION DOLLARS--
LET ME REPEAT THAT AMOUNT.... SO YOU UNDERSTAND IT
... $24,000,000.00 DOLLARS
FOR NEW ELECTRONIC
MEDICAL RECORDS PROCESSING FOR
OUR CONGRESSMEN AND SENATORS!!
THEY ARE OBTAINING THESE FUNDS and I
QUOTE DIRECTLY FROM THE SOCIAL SECURITY
WEBSITE...............
"THIS MONEY WILL COME FROM THE SAVINGS TO BE
GENERATED FROM WITHHOLDING
"COST OF LIVING INCREASES FOR
2010 & 2011 in SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFITS FOR
THE ELDERLY
AND A $2.00 INCREASE ON ALL MEDICARE RX BENEFIT
CO-PAY"
Please excuse my
FRENCH, But do the words "BULL CRAP" ring a bell
?
Please
pass this to ALL your friends and have them "PROTEST TO THE IDIOTS WE ELECTED TO
CONGRESS" who by the way, have just voted themselves ANOTHER 3% SALARY
INCREASE!!!
We must put a stop to this
outright thievery! It is THE CONGRESS AND THE SENATE, BOTH REPUBLICAN AND
DEMOCRATS, WE CAN'T FIRE THEM, BUT WE SURE AS HECK CAN NOT RE-ELECT THEM, and WE
CAN IMPEACH THEM or DEMAND RECALL ELECTIONS!!! HOW ABOUT WE ALL
GET TOGETHER AND
DUMP THESE CLOWNS.
Just
watch. They will spend this money and find the software doesn't work, dump the
whole thing and go back to the old steam driven system just like they did with
air traffic control several years ago. Don't worry though, they've got
health care all worked out.
So here is what we CAN
do....
All I ask is that you
consider the suggestion here.
The entire Congress of the
United States is corrupt. And I mean both Houses and
I mean both major parties.
I realize that a few Members of each
House are trustworthy, but, as a
group they are absolutely
the most corrupt bunch to ever disgrace our
Nation.
In
November of 2010 the entire House of Representatives will stand for
re-election; all 435 of them. One third of the Senate, a total of 33 of them,
will also stand for re-election. Vote every incumbent
out.
And I mean every one of
them. No matter their
Party affiliation..
Let's start all over in the House of Representatives with 435 people who
have absolutely no experience in running that body, with no
political favors owed to anyone but their own constituents.
Let's make them understand that they work for
us..
They are answerable to
us and they simply have to run that
body with some common
sense.
Two years later, in 2012, vote the next third of
the
incumbents in the Senate out.
We
can do the same thing in
2014 and, by that time we will have put all new
people in that body as well.
We, the People, have
got to take this Country back and we HAVE to do it
peacefully.
That's what the Framers of our Constitution
envisioned.
I am also suggesting term limits on the NEW BUNCH --8
YEARS FOR REPRESENTATIVES AND 12 YEARS OF SENATORS.
NO EXCEPTIONS. THE LONGER THEY STAY IN OFFICE THE
MORE POWER THEY GET AND
THEY LOVE IT AND WILL DO ANYTHING TO GET
RE-ELECTED...
WE HAVE TERM
LIMITED THE PRESIDENT -- NOW LET'S TERM LIMIT THE
LEGISLATORS..
Please, if you love this Country,
send this (as I have done) to absolutely
everyone whose email address appears in your address
book..
This thing can permeate this Country in no time.
Let's make it happen.**
VOTE THE POWER ABUSERS
OUT..........LET'S TAKE AMERICA BACK
!!!!!!!!!
IF YOU LIKE THE WAY THINGS ARE
GOING IN OUR COUNTRY,Your Head is still in the
sand!! THEN DO
NOTHING...........

Snopes on no cost of living increase (there isn't an increase in years with deflation, like we're seeing).
Medicare's investment in electronic medical records is not "for Congress," but for disability applications in general. That's a good thing.
Here's a better idea: Demand real reform in the health care system to stem the rampant increase in costs, and demand serious regulatory reform for the financial sector that destroyed the economy.
Well good Republicans everywhere want to completely do away with Medicare bc it's so socialist and is ruining our country. Plus Republicans, even after the disasterous crash in 2008, still want to privatize social security, so that everyone can be ripped off even more by Wall Street.
So, hey: Republics, what great ideas! Instead of whining constantly about stuff that isn't true, why don't you pull your heads out of your butts and see who's really ripping you off.
I want the Obama Fast Food Meal...I order anything off the menu I want, and the people behind me pay for it!!!
The handwriting on the wall...MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN.
@ anon
Oh please, don't be so modest. That was the Bush Fast Food Meal for years. At least with Obama we actually get something in return for our money, instead of just flushing it down the drain with stupid wars and irresponsible tax cuts.
Colors, fonts, underlining, centering of text! If its this hard on your eyes it must be true!
It's like than Simpsons episode.
Homeless guy: Hey man, spare a little change?
Abe: Hell no! Everyone's always wanting something for nothing these days.
*Walks into Social Security Office*
Abe: I'm old! GIMMIE GIMMIE GIMIE!
Like all Democrats believe in some kind of "Obama Fast Food" thing. Sheesh.
Earth to wingtard!!! That's just a bunch of bullshit that your brainwasher in Chief, Rush Limbaugh, tells you. It's NOT what happens. DUH. Wake up fool.
"I want the Obama Fast Food Meal...I order anything
off the menu I want, and the people behind me pay
for it!!!"
You think that's clever, eh?
Joke's on you. You just don't know it yet.
Can this get a comic sans font tag? I can't read it with the multiple italic and capitalization and then the change of font in the middle with more italics. I need some Advil.
By the way, what's with all the right wing trolls in the comments these days?
Right wing trolls are out of work because of the bad policy decisions and spending like a drunken sailor ways of the Bush Admin. so they have nothing better to do that listen to the lies of Rush Limbaugh and the run to blogs like this whine to make themselves feel better.
Much easier than thinking for themselves to figure out what went wrong and who's really to blame.
@Anon
What is ..... MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN?
Maybe it's like: eenie, meanie, miney, mo... ???
With trolls, it's always hard to tell what they're saying. Be kind to those with learning disabilities.
Mene, Mene, Tekel, Upharin refers
to 'The Writing on the Wall'.
It's from the Book of Daniel and
is considered a Biblical portent
of Doom.
Thus, this has to be from our
anonymous Xtian Endtimes Troll.
*sigh* Must I constantly keep returning and saying "Not all of us Christians are like that?"
Anyhow, I'm sure it's complete coincidence that this totally nonpartisan vote-everybody-out plan would leave Republicans with a near-supermajority.
@ gruaud
You got the book of the Bible correct, but it was GOD's handwriting on the wall to the king Belshazzar because he desecrated the Jewish temple goblets and such.
Dan 5:25 And this is the writing that was written, MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN.
Dan 5:26 This is the interpretation of the thing: MENE; God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it.
Dan 5:27 TEKEL; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting.
Dan 5:28 PERES; Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.
The point is that many people, Congressmen and the President (past and present) are found without integrity and are found wanting and someday GOD will judge all mankind and because he cannot stand for evil will send them to a literal place called hell. There is a way out of this certain doom ..by believing on GOD and His Son Jesus Christ who died for the sins of the world if they only repent. But the time for doing this is getting shorter. You can take Christ out of your response, but you can't take Christ out of my heart!!!
@ Anon
So let me get this straight: American is a den of great evil, an awful nation which spawns, elects and follows unholy leaders?
But I thought conservatives hate anyone who bashes America? Isn't America the city on the hill? The greatest nation that is or ever was and God's chosen country and all that?
So confusing...
@ Anon on @ Anon
The whole world is a den of great evil, an awful nation which spawns, elects and follows unholy leaders?
The only people who will not be sent to hell are those who follow GOD's plan of salvation. Doing good deeds, never murdering, or killing an infidel will never get you into heaven... because Jesus said "I am the only way". He is the Lord of lords and King of kings and one day all rulers will bow down to GOD.
This country was founded on Christian principles but it is not GOD's chosen..that would be Israel. That will never change.
Doing good deeds, never murdering, or killing an infidel will never get you into heaven
You heard him, folks. God doesn't care about our good deeds or murdering people. Have at it, go nuts!
WOW, did you misinterpret that...I meant, if you think just because you didn't commit the sin of murder, then you will go to Heaven. Wrong! All sin (even a little "white lie", grumbling, jealousy, etc.)is detestable to GOD. He cannot stand the impurity of sin because HE is righteous. "The payment for sin is death". But He did offer the gift of HIS Son, Jesus, on the cross so if you believe in Him, you can have eternal life with HIM.
I didn't misinterpret you. By your logic, we are all sinners and sin all the time, but if we say the magic words and become part of God's Chosen Crew(TM), then it doesn't really matter.
Enjoy your sins, people. Just be sure to say the magic words at some point and everything will be cool.
