From the Wall Street Journal
WASHINGTON -- Spending by lawmakers on taxpayer-financed trips abroad has risen sharply in recent years, a Wall Street Journal analysis of travel records shows, involving everything from war-zone visits to trips to exotic spots such as the Galápagos Islands.The spending on overseas travel is up almost tenfold since 1995, and has nearly tripled since 2001, according to the Journal analysis of 60,000 travel records. Hundreds of lawmakers traveled overseas in 2008 at a cost of about $13 million. That's a 50% jump since Democrats took control of Congress two years ago.
While we are in the worst economic situation since the Great Depression; while millions of taxpayers are losing their jobs; while lawmakers are spending us and our great grandchildren into oblivion & serfdom; while California is handing out IOUs; while Congress has passed the biggest TAX bill in the history of the World: Cap & Trade...
...these felons, these members of the Imperial State, are spending our money like its water, on themselves, their wives and kids.
While your wife and kids are tightening their belts, doing without, making sacrifices, these vipers are living it up in Paris, Jamaica, the Virgin Islands, and Australia...from their UNLIMITED ACCOUNT...of YOUR MONEY...that they conveniently set up for themselves 30 years ago.
And some of the shits that set it up then, are still in Congress, still spending your money for $450 a night hotels, while you're hoping to be able to afford the gas to make it across the state in your RV.
If we don't find a peaceful way soon to stop these swamp-dwellers—it's going to turn ugly. This infuriates me so much I'm about ready to grab an axe handle and take over the capitol.
These "Imperial Politicians" must be brought to heel, or we will not survive. At least, not as America.
WWJD? (What would Jefferson do?)
I think he would refresh the Tree of Liberty with the blood of some goddamn tyrants!
