have you ever seen Kerry go up against a powerful special interest? The problem is we need to kill payroll taxes in order to be competitive globally. Indian workers are tax free to US corps. This will require cutting senior entitlements. The seniors are the worst group, they have greedy lobbyists. The workforce won't be able to pay for these entitlements anymore.

FOR THE PEOPLE WHO LOVE MY FAVORITE PREZ


Hillary Clinton goes to a primary school in New York to talk about the world. After her talk she offers question time. One little boy puts up his hand, and the Senator asks him what his name is.

"Kenneth."

And what is your question, Kenneth?"

"I have three questions:

First - Whatever happened to your medical health care plan?

Second - Why would you run for President after your husband shamed the office? and Third - Whatever happened to all those things you took when you left the White House?"

Just then the bell rings for recess. Hillary Clinton informs the kiddies that they will continue after recess.

When they resume Hillary says, "Okay where were we?

Oh, that's right, question time. Who has a question?"

A different little boy puts his hand up; Hillary points him out and asks him what his name is.

"Larry."
"And what is your question?"

"I have five questions:

First - Whatever happened to your medical health care plan?

Second - Why would you run for President after your husband shamed the office?

Third - Whatever happened to all those things you took when you left the White House?

Fourth - Why did the recess bell go off 20 minutes early? and Fifth - What happened to Kenneth?"

Enron

This is an interesting bit of information that you don't hear much about in the media ---

a.. Enron's chairman did meet with the president and the vice president in the Oval Office.

b.. Enron gave $420,000 to the president's party over three years.

c.. It donated $100,000 to the president's inauguration festivities.

d.. The Enron chairman stayed at the White House 11 times.

e.. The corporation had access to the administration at its highest levels and even enlisted the Commerce and State Departments to grease deals for it.


f.. The taxpayer-supported Export-Import Bank subsidized Enron for more than $600 million in just one transaction.

Scandalous!!



g.. BUT...the president under whom all this happened WASN'T George W. Bush.

h.. SURPRISE ......... It was Bill Clinton!
