Wasnt this in texas, or southwest few years ago? I remeber a post here about it...man was i outraged! one senator giving 2 or 3 votes for his buddy, vice versa...all when the cameras were still running on commerical time* I foten wodner why an official investigation was never follwoed up on, and WHY this never made national media news? I mean istn this treason or some major law being broken? FEderal offense! i belive is the term!!! if i can go to prison so can they! I want all my tax money bak now,a t least form the IRS that i ever was forced to apy into it*
damn, this shold go to CNN, abc, NBC< CNBC news,....so hopefully, poeple will wake up more,a nd make the judges and police on thier way to work, an eye opener , lieterally for em.

hah, funny... i saw a police officer parked in the lot of a movie theater as if he was doing his job, but he was playing solitaire in his laptop... this was a couple of weeks ago

At least there aren't any fiddles and fires, although, them playing two separate games of solitaire together, as opposed to poker or something, is a good metaphor for the way the government runs.

Although what they are doing is out of order, has no one here seriously not played solitare or looked at the scores or a social website when they are at work?? I know I have.

Peace

Ummm... No, I haven't , when I'm at work, I'm there to work, not goof around. If I did that during work hours I can get written up, and possibly suspended. Also, I happen to have a GOOD work ethic, unlike these lazy bums.

The thread title is a little misleading. Unbelievable? You should change it to "The scene... EXACTLY WHAT YOU THINK GOES ON DURING CONGRESS"

Um, every since I was little I have heard about how Politicians are crooks, very greedy and dont care about the American people. I'm sure quite a few of you feel the same way. This isnt surprising at all, hell they have sex with young kids.

I think we as American people really have to take a look at our Politicians and see which ones are for US. And clean house,

This looks like a decline in our empire. Our leaders don't give a F*** and they don't care if you know it, as long as it's not on camera.

I don't mean to correct you, but "leaders"? I don't think so. They are volunteers. "Elected officials" if you will. Servants. Our tax dollars pay them. They volunteer and we choose (vote) who we want. I don't think they should even be paid. Even then, the role of these people's jobs are too important to the country for them to be behaving like this. Someone else said it's time to clean house. I agree, but I don't think we should wait til 2010. They don't mind stealing from us, lying to us, using us. Why should we them? What's the difference in someone stealing your wallet and the government stealing your tax dollars? There's not one, because it all comes from the same place! YOUR WALLET! I don't want to be the first one to action. Frankly, I'm kinda scared. I think what a lot of people need though is a little inspiration to get the ball rolling. I can't wait for the first person to fire up their vacuum, cause I'll be right beside them with mine, cleaning house next door.

I used to be quasi-addicted to Windows Solitaire while recovering from surgery
until I learned of the hack.

Press Alt + Shift + 2 = Instant win. Sure gets your win average up fast.

But honestly, the picture is outrageous and I'm from Florida.

Thanks for bringing to our attention. Will forward.

Gosh darn it, you just took all the fun out of it.
I think I am gonna be sick, oh wait maybe thats just from all the poison they put in our food.

The fact still remains, no public or media outcry on this. Fighting stuff like this is a life effort. Creating websites, organizing, protesting, getting media coverage, starting a movement. In the past people used the excuse, I've got a job and a family and a reputation (identity) to uphold.

Now that more people are unemployed, maybe we'll see a revolution with all the free time people have. Many people that put their identity into their job have lost their identity. We are moving to a time of increased crime and despair...desperate measures and a society with nothing to lose. A breeding ground for upheaval.

And the Lord, thy God said.... "Let he who hast never logged into college humour dot com or hot or not dot com at work cast the first stone".

The only thing that needs to be done about this is we need to elect new and better people.

Good grief, I hate calls for any new laws...like we don't have enough.

No surprise there, they are CT liberals
