What a shock. Foxnews. You know...the one you never watch or read. And that is all you are worried about? Idiot!

Posted by CashCowMoo on :

Wow YOU are really the idiot. So what if Fox News reported something that is happening. Obama signed an executive order to do this too.

Here Pagan, since you are so brainwashed let me give you links to the same story on different outlets.

Have you ever heard of leading by example. Why is Obama signing an executive order for pay raises when they are failing us miserably? What is the difference between wall street bonuses on bailed out companies, and this? Take away the dollar amount and the principle is the same.....you get more for your failing.

Here you come pagan, dismissing it just because I posted a link from Fox News, and because it was reported on Fox it just HAS to be false or a lie. You are beyond ignorant. Obama could impose a federal toilet flush tax in the name of sustainability, and you would scream at anyone who thought it was awkward. Claiming they are getting their info from "faux news" and they must be a bunch of "tea baggers".

Government coming after guns, paying themselves more for failure, raising your taxes, keeping the patriot act, economy is in the dumps...and your head is in the sand because you can not question those who have control over you.
