No Mo Earmarks

S
o, today I was listening to the news and Obama was talking about earmarks and how in this economic climate they should be eliminated. Fortunately, he knew that people will not want to get rid of theirs, so he told them that they had to post the earmark on their website and have the people decide if they wanted to pay for them or not.

Man, that is gonna piss some people off. Now they have to take the time to find out what they are earmarking and then they have to post all of them on their web pages, pay someone to post them there, then get rid of those earmarks that the people don't want!! The nerve of him!!! Doesn't he realize how long that is going to take? Doesn't he understand how much money is going to be spent finding people to do the job and actually paying them to do it too!!!! Does that mean they have to now give back the "donation" that was given to them?

I knew I liked that guy! He is the bomb!! (I bet he has them shaking in their boots on the hill. Boy, he better watch out, dem boyz gonna be real tired uv his "change" thang. They gonna haf to do sumin bout him.) I so want him to get through his four years, get another four years and then retire and lead us into a very prosperous future. Then, after leading us through the future and helping change the world as we know, move on to the next realm. Please (dem boyz) don't get rid of this one. I really like this one a lot. He has good mother wit. His sense of fair play is delightful and refreshing. He is saying a lot of things that I have said over the years, and people deemed me too harsh. I said if you hold people to a higher standard, then like cream they will rise to the top. I'll do a blog list of things that I like and dislike about him later.

After the politicians list all of their earmarks on their web page, and the public decides that what is good and what is ridiculous, Obama realizes that some will slip through the cracks and to prevent that, he stated:
  • If the Obama Administration evaluates an earmark and determines that it has no legitimate public purpose, they will seek to eliminate it, and they will work with Congress to do so.
that means even if you get one or two through, and we say no then it's no!!

Love that dude!!!
