Nice Evening

We visited with T and R along with Court and Mrs. Beersnob last night. Then we came back home and Court and Filmmaker Friend Chris came over and we just had a fun ole' time!

Nothing but a fun conversation and good memories!

After I came home from work I did catch President Obama pitch a fit on TV about the debt talks breaking down. There is no deal in place but they had come close. 3.7 trillion dollars over a decade? Yeah, that won't happen. Any time politicians can put off spending cuts to a later date they will because they won't happen.

We have a fourteen trillion dollar national debt and a 1.3 trillion dollar deficit this year alone.

Hear this, ANY DEAL must start with congressional reform first and foremost. Congress must be forced to live under the same rules they impose on us. No super sweet retirement pensions, no lifetime health care, no keeping of the campaign war chests. They should serve as intended and go back to the private sector and live with the rules they helped create.

That is the absolute starting position these talks should take.
