ReplyDeleteThis is funny, as long as we remember the government existed before January 20, 2009.
ReplyDeleteYes, and under Bush, I think many of us were concerned about the direction it was headed. I'm very concerned about the mindset of the American people that some of the issues that are political fights are even on the agenda.
ReplyDeleteI think that's going to have to go on my blog. If the government can steal your money, I can steal your video. :-P
ReplyDeleteHaha, that's so funny. Why would you have to steal some videos just creat your own..
