This is disgusting

Posted: Oct 15, 2009

I guess as long as Obama's administration gets money for their pet projects then screw the troops. Truly disgusting display of greed with the democratic congress.

Let's hope we don't get back to that fiasco

Maybe we'll get lucky and Halliburton or KBR will donate. Oh wait, Halliburton took the money and did squat, and KBR's work was so shoddy it is killing our troups.

Hrm. I will be dollars to donuts that a careful study of that pork shows more Republican-proposed pork than Democrat. Anyone want to take me up on that?

Since I'm not talking about the past admin - anon

I don't know. What is happening now is happening now. Bush, Cheney, Halliburton and other names/companies is not what I'm talking about.

Might be nice to get up to speed with the current events.

This is happening now. Under Obama's watch. These are people like Pelosi, Franks, Reid, etc. putting our soldiers and jeapardy.

Take me up on my bet then? - NJ

Offer still stands...want to see exactly where the pork goes and who asked for it? Want to bet on whether more of it is Republican pork or Democrat?

Because if that happened once in while, a dialogue might actually be possible.

So I am disagreeing with the OP. Get it? But you want to say it more republican than democrat, and I am disagreeing with that also. I think it is on both sides, not one more than the other - BOTH of them.

Gotcha ^^ - NJ

I remember hearing Republican officials grumbling about the stimulus plan and then packing it with pork (the same guys who complained). I am saying they are hypocritical in their tactics, but I have to agree with you that "pork" is bipartisan.

Perhaps if you had posted in reply to the originator of this thread your intent would have been clearer.

From your post: Might be nice to get up to speed with the current events.

I think it would be better if you were more honest - surely you don't believe the problems the past administration caused are not still causing colossal headaches now?

Just saw where there was a post from CNN stating that Trumps lawyer was voting for Hilary. The last time I voted, it was confidential. The media is so biased it is rediculous. Everyone may have their opinions but we all should agree to disagree and, to me, it just does not seem right that President Obama is pulling for someone who has lied and is no better than the presumptive Republican candidate and this is why, I personally, think he should stay neutral throughout the proces ...

So disappointed in our local university band, several band members taking a knee today during a ballgame (East Carolina University). We need to forget political correctness. The anthem stands for freedom, freedom which these university students, NFL players, etc., have today. I just wanted to snatch them off the field. Where are the adults at. I hope the Chancellor of this university finally speaks out about this. This was disgraceful. The NFL should hav ...

He stated he's supporting Trump. Really? Don't think so. He's a freaking liar, but then, anyone with sense knows that. He's really on Hillary's side and worried. He knows how much people hate him for supporting OWS like most of the liberal progressive Democrats, his anarchy stance and his free-stuff-hate-corporations stance and more. Heaven forbid he lets people know that he really wants Hillary as president since Bernie is out of the race.. Now, he p ...

It went on to quote Obama at a press conference saying,"‘I can’t abandon the American people now when they need me more than ever. We’ve come this far as a nation, now is not the time to do something different. This is the change you wanted and this is the change you’re getting." The problem facing Obama, according to the article, is the 22nd Amendment, which prevents presidents from running for more than two terms. It was ratified in 1951. However, the article s ...

Let me explain this to sincere liberals who love this country: Your last hope is not Clinton, but Trump. Remove the party blinders. There have been nearly 70 years of liberal dominance in this nation's inner cities and other poor communities. There has been no shortage of money (almost $11 trillion). ...Now, if you DARE, take a drive around any inner city. Okay - did you survive? Great! And what did you see that the liberal philosophy has given us? Vote the same, get the ...
