Going Broke...

[Dropshot]

<font size="3" face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif">The president announced yesterday that without the passing of this healthcare reform the country is going to go bankrupt. Today,the Secretary of Statehas just made news by landing in Copenhagen and immediately announcing $100 billion through 2020 in additional new money to developing countries, in the name of “climate change”. For perspective, in 2008, total United States Overseas Development Aid was $26 billion. So you see we’re talking about a spectacular increase in foreign development aid in the name of something the case for which is collapsing all around us.</font></p>

<font size="3" face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Maybe we would have a little more money if we did not give it away, mainly to countries that hate us and cheer for the calls for socialism as they did when Chavez spoke earlier today.</font></p>

<font size="3" face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Regardless of your political affiliationand whether you are a conservative.liberal, or independent, the math does not add up.</font> <font size="3" face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif">We are 12 Trillion dollars in debt, but giving money away to something which many believe to be a farce. Sooner or later, we must find a way to hold these shysters in Washington accountable for what they are doing with our money.</font></p>

So, how much money have we spent in Iraq, and we are not done yet. You have a point, funny you did not mention Iraq.

Here is the quote word for word:</p>

Clinton said the United States is concerned about the ability of needy nations to do their part. The United States is willing to work with other countries to raise $100 billion by 2020 to address the climate-change needs of developing nations, she said.</p>

She told delegates that the United States already has joined an effort to provide more immediate funding that would reach $10 billion in 2012.</p>

Actually, this is the quote...
“The US is prepared to work with other countries toward a goal of jointly mobilizing $100 billion a year by 2020 to address the climate change needs of developing countries...”

These developing countries like India and China have plenty of money to worry about their own climate issues. Hell China is making way more $ than we are. I've been there several times in recent years. The growth is explosive. The money we are sending them is nothing more than a bribe to get them to do what we want. All we have to do is quit buying there sh$t until they get the proper environmental controls in place. I promise they would get it done quick!
