Audience Members: What a godawful play! To think they make a living that way! Not only that - they get away with it! Is it over? Please tell me it's over. And the acting! Horrible! I'm too bored to boo! Politicians: That was a fine dramatic performance, Mr. McConnell. You, too, Mr. Reid - breathtaking, in fact. I thought you did just beautifully, Mr. Boehner. We all did! We're so wonderful I could cry! (Sniffle) Obama: Thank you, thank you very much. Man: Wait! This is just intermission!

Nice parallel to Charlie Sheen and sadly accurate.

It’s an old cliche’ that politics is Hollywood for ugly people. Looks like it’s also Broadway for ugly people…….

billdog, tsk, tsk, he later issued a retraction, of sorts. Something about his 90% statement not being intended as factual. I suppose he was misinformed.

Unfortunately, the play isn’t over. There will be a brief intermission while they pass the hat around, then the second act will commence in May. Will Obama grow a pair? Will Boener cry like a crocodile? Stay tuned!

Well, we do have a spending problem, or a taxing problem, or both. 60% is a big miss. Well, probably 10% is interest on old debt! Let’s just print money and not tax!

It’s time to burn Newt’s script, “W cuts”(remember his dad RAISED taxes when they saw the bottom falling out!), and get rid of the stupidity that sadly, DOES reflect the noisiest, if not majority portion, of the “electorate”.

$321 million per day goes to 2 (or is it 3?) useless, senseless wars – we could end the budget crisis tomorrow.
