Congress sucks...

[Henry Hawk]

NO...YOU SUCK!

No, you do and you like getting tea-bagged. 

It was TEA PARTY...NO tea baggin was involved what so ever....

[Exterminator]

Uh huh, sure there wasn't.

[LOsborne]

This just became my "suck" thread.

YOU SUCK!

NO...YOU SUCK!

Perhaps in the interest of variety and avoiding repetitive epithets we should haul out the thesaurus and use this slam-fest as an opportunity to expand our vocabularies. As an example I will start:

You both vacuum!!

Correct and it's constantly sucking in new information...unlike yours.

Congress Gave Out Over $9.1 Million In Bonuses in 2008...

Last year alone, more than 200 House lawmakers, both Republicans and Democrats, awarded bonuses totaling $9.1 million to more than 2,000 staff members, according to a Wall Street Journal analysis of office-disbursement forms. The money comes out of taxpayer-funded office budgets, and is surplus cash that would otherwise be forfeited if not spent.

Murtha's Nephew Got Defense Contracts

Yet last year, Murtech received $4 million in Pentagon work, all of it without competition, for a variety of warehousing and engineering services. With its long corridor of sparsely occupied offices and an unmanned reception area, Murtech's most striking feature is its owner -- Robert C. Murtha Jr., 49. He is the nephew of  Rep. John P. Murtha, the Pennsylvania Democrat who has significant sway over the Defense Department's spending as chairman of the House Appropriations defense subcommittee.

again where is the outrage?.....he needs to resign....   I thought Pelosi and company was going to run a CLEAN congress....this is very corrupt congress...and it seems as no one cares anymore.

again where is the outrage?

Same place it was when Dick Cheney's Halliburton and it's subsidiaries KBR and Blackwater were handed all the lucrative Iraq-related contracts in no-bid sweetheart deals. Glad to see you're finally on board, Henry.

[me]

Halliburton was the only company large enough to handle the things that were contracted for and Cheney no longer had any ties to the company.  I don't believe he or his family profited from the contract being awarded to them.  If they did show me proof.  By that I don't mean a news report from MSNBC, NBC, or CNN.

haliburton was used during Clinton ear also....with no-bid contracts...

i have always been on board.....this is not a manufactured smear.....it is cut and dry.

[Exterminator]

Halliburton was the only company large enough to handle the things that were contracted for and Cheney no longer had any ties to the company.

Halliburton was created specifically to fill that role but had stopped growing because once it had all of the contracts for all of the military installations, there was no further market without a war.  And since when do stock options not qualify as ties to a company?

I don't believe he or his family profited from the contract being awarded to them.

Then you're a naive sheep.

If they did show me proof.  By that I don't mean a news report from MSNBC, NBC, or CNN.

Show us proof they didn't.  By that I don't mean a news report from Faux news.

[me]

Don't turn that around on me I asked you to show proof.

[Exterminator]

Don't turn that around on me I asked you to show proof.

And I asked you to...if you think any of these losers couldn't find his way around anonymous, untraceable, off-shore accounts, you're naive (like that's really a question at this point).  Feel free, though, to bend over and continue to take their ass-pounding...hard to say which of you enjoys it most.

Msnbc= Moronic sublevel news broadcasting co.
nbc= Nincompoop broadcasting co.
cnn= communist News network

You are so right about Haliburton: There are jobs that only a few can do or have the experience and equipment to do. Like during the fires in Kuwait, There was few companies that could put them out, or at least knew how. It gets pretty specific in some of the Oil Companies jobs. I will validate this with being an old oilie and in this field for over 30 years.
