Excellent They're all full of it... CSP: A Collection of Poems : Just Bitchin' by Sixteezkid See Author's Notes below

Bureaucracy! Hypocrisy! Bailouts - Bloody broke! Deficit spending Unending TARP bills Big Three ailments need injection UAW - a disconnection AIG - on dole handout Congress on payroll Of Freddie/Fannie - a rout! Money presses Printing messes Result: inflation Housing deflation Creates stagflation Illegal immigration Overloading nation Broken schools (no!) Child left behind Joblessness Hopelessness Homelessness All a mess Where is Congress? Think us fools You've no rules Ambiguous On hiatus! Left and Right Dukin' it out! Middle class tabled And I shout! BUDGET CUTS FOR KIDS DISABLED?? Recognized Author Notes You may agree with some or none or all. But, we all know our elected officials do NOT act "for the people" - What really set me on fire today, was I read where the already-puny budget for the mentally disabled kids was getting cut by 25%. I have a daughter with autism and she's on a WAIT LIST for a simple day program to attend to keep her busy and sociable. So, with Congressional pork, earmarks, corporate bailouts, aid to nations who we have to pay to "like" us; what about our own kids? What about our pitiful education here?
