Bailouts and earmarks, Bailouts and earmarks, Bailouts and earmarks, Bailouts and earmarks and we keep electing big spenders in government. Someone will have to pay for these and more!

Please E mail me when your federal, state and local taxes go sky high to pay for all these and a lot, lot more!

I am happy that Obama, Kagen and all the democrats won the 2008 election.

ENJOY!
