The Convention has ended. We were unable to attend yesterday's events because Norm's back is raging! But Friday was the money day! Speakers included Col. Alan West, Michelle Bachman (She is a feisty little thing!), Donald Trump, Ron Paul, Paul Ryan, Eric Cantor, Mitt Romney, Tim Pawlenty, Haley Barbour and a host of others. (My list is downstairs :( ). And my pictures have disappeared! : ( But I want you to read this: (And I can't even remember his name, but he's the head of the House Budget Committee...) Imagine this:
You and your husband haven't really looked at your budget in a couple of years, so you feel it's time to sit down and see where you stand. Your annual net income is $46,000; your annual expenses are $76,000 and in the drawer is your VISA card. You have charged
$231,000!!!
And that is where America stands today !
And we are talking about raising the debt ceiling, putting together another stimulous package, adding government jobs!!!! Are we just plain crazy????
BTW, National unemployment average is 9.4% - and we know it's really much higher. And home prices are still dropping all over the country; here in DC, home prices are rising, and the unemployment rate is 5.4%.
