Sen Judd Gregg (asshat, wherever) thinks that we have no right to hand off the problems
of our generation down to the next generation. And that is the reason that we need to cut Medicare right now. Otherwise, the next generation will have to pay for our generations health costs. Did you know that everybody is subsidizing Warren Buffett's Medicare part D? It must be true, thats what the Senator said on the Senate floor. So we should cut everything from the program, including to people who can't afford it because Warren Buffett is benefitting.


Bwaaaaa Haaaaaa Haaaaaaaaa. Couldn't help it, I actually laughed out loud when he said that a few minutes ago on the Senate floor. Something about a 10billion dollar unfunded Medicare liability. Hmmmm, where, oh where could we come up with that kind of money??

5. I'm really thinking of writing him this letter:
Dear Senator Judd,

I heard your floor speech on not leaving the unfunded liabilities of this generation to the next generation that you made on 2/27/08. I have to say that I agree with you 100%. My question is, how do you propose to pay off the Iraq and Iran wars so we don't leave it to the next generation. The war cost so far is close to $500 billion dollars and rising at a rate of approximately $275 million per day. With the tax cuts and the growing deficit, I would like to hear your proposals.

Thanks-you very much

xxxxx

3. It never fails to amaze me that for as long as I can remember Repiglicans create a problem
then decide the best way to fix the problem they created is by blaming everyone except themselves for the problem. Health care was affordable until the piglicans decided to fix it by putting health care in the hands of insurance CEO's and let them write the rules on how health should be payed for. Whats even more amazing is in all of these years of abuse by piglicans, the people being abused are the same ones voting the pigs in office. Why? Because they have a message that they agree with, stupid is as stupid does. Btw, you notice the jerk doesn't seem to be bothered by the fact the piglicans have spent well into our great grand kids generation.
