Now where have we heard THAT before? Oh yeah, Barak Obama – BEFORE he became POTUS.
Well, how about program Head Start? $166M of our country’s taxes wasted.
Since 1965.
There’s something to switch off, eh, Mr. President? Let’s see if we can find more for you.
Congress keeps trying to grow the Piggy Bank and take its contents each and every time.
That, in essence, is the core of our economic headaches.
Unnecessary spending has got to stop. In fact, Congress has to reverse course completely or we will never be considered a world power in the eyes of anyone. Which leads to another point.
Where, in all this, is the do no harm?
Best of Luck in 2010.
Here’s a start.
UPDATE: Good Morning. It is now 01/01/10. (Looks like machine language. To those familiar with computer programming, that is.)
Senator Jim DeMint, I couldn’t agree more and I hope to join with you.
Here is what I will promise to you, Maryland, right now.
I will not dishonor our Constitution.
I will not break the Law.
I will not seek to alter the Bill of Rights.
I will not be a party to fraud, waste and abuse.
I will not rush to judgement.
I will sign, and hold to, a pledge to not add new taxes.
I will work to maintain and improve transparency.
I will strive to reduce the practice of earmarking.
I will not sign vote on a Bill that is so large it cannot be read and understood within a reasonable timeframe. And I see that timeframe as no more than two days.
I will work to improve the efficiency of fiscal management and reduce waste.
If you can think of more, don’t be afraid to let me know.
Daniel McAndrew
