Meanwhile, the war machine is spending 1.5 trillion for an airplane that has no useful purpose and doesn’t even work.

Its all a scam to keep the money flowing to people who make money off death.
Its all wrong and i dont care how many jobs would be lost.
Obama should be ashamed of himself and his pathetic attempts to keep from cutting anything.
I don’t remember anything in the constitution about becoming a world police force and telling
other country’s how to live at the point of a gun.

Thanks for the laugh.
Maybe some good news, if you have children. At least the kids in South Dakota will be safe at school. There are some sane people left out there (as opposed to the gun-grabbing democrat liberal progressive shitheads).
South Dakota Signs ‘Gun In Every Classroom’ Bill
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/09/2013
South Dakota is the first state, since the Newtown tragedy, to enact a law allowing teachers to carry guns in school. As Fox News reports, Governor Dennis Daugaard signed the bill that allows school districts to arm teachers and other personnel. Unsurprisingly, the measure prompted intense debate as many feared it “could make schools more dangerous, lead to accidental shootings,” and potentially put guns into untrained hands, as well as previously dismissed by Education Secretary Arne Duncan as “a marketing opportunity” for the industry to sell more guns. South Dakota, apparently, doesn’t stand alone on this issue (Utah has allowed teachers to wear concealed weapons for 12 years) but as Washington pushes forward on its gun control legislation, other states including Georgia, New Hampshire, and Kansas are working on similar measures. Rep. Scott Craig – the bill’s main sponsor – has received support from rural districts who do not have the funds for full-time law enforcement. While the Great Depression promised a ‘chicken in every pot’, our current repression appears to be heading towards a ‘gun in every classroom’.
