''It's the way we treat government workers, and I think we ought to do this,'' he said in a brief interview. Les, If I had it to do over again I think I would work for the govt. Hell the only way I get a COLA is if I can bill more for my time or work harder and longer. Those crooks in DC deserve nothing other than to be booted out. I am convinced that there if you put both parties in a big paper bag and shook it up and dumped them out you would have a difficult time sorting them as to which side of the aisle they belong. Don't know if you saw the note concerning Huey P. Long(I assume most know who he is). He was giving a political speech and made the following statement concerning Democrats vs Republicans: "It is kinda like skinning the bark off a tree. There are two groups...the HIGHPOPALOWUMs and the LOWPOPAHIGHUMs. The LOWPOPAHIGHUMs start at the bottom of the tree and work up and the HIGHPOPALOWUMs start at the top and work down. They both end up doing the same thing.
