Another $13 Billion Borrowed. What's the Total Up To Now, Obama?

Some good news first - the Tea Party express is about to make its second tour through the country! I'll be there on November 9 and let me tell you, I am FIRED UP. See the detailed map for a location near you.

The bad news - Obama is going to spread more wealth around - $13 billion to be exact. He wants Congress to provide a one-time payment of $250 to help senior citizens weather the recession. The alleged reason is that this year is the first time in decades that seniors on social security haven't gotten a cost of living adjustment. The reason for this is that consumer prices have remained stagnant this year.

Questions for Obama: If the cost of living has stayed the same, why do they need extra money? Is this money being borrowed from China? Is the real reason you are doing this is because seniors are ticked that you are planning to make cuts from their Medicare to "give" everyone health insurance? Are you worried they will vote you and your cronies out since they are the one group that always shows up to vote? Is this going to be a regular ongoing payment? Why don't you just go ahead and resign now? Pretty please?
