Obama was looken out the white house window and notices part of the fence needed repair. He calls his top official,
and tells him to get 3 bids and pic the best one. The official gets a contractor from RI, THE CONTRACTOR PULLS OUT HIS tape measure adds it all up and tells the official 900 dollors 400 for material, 400 for the crew, and 100 for me. Then a little later a contractor from Ohio shows up, does the same measuring and says 700 dollors,300 for my crew, 300 for material and 100 for me.Finally the last contractor he gets, is from Chicago,he looks and says 2700 bucks, the official says 2700! you didnt even measure!the contractor says 1000 for me and 1000 for you,and 700 for the contractor from Ohio. the official says you got the job! Our tax dollors at work!

you couldn't even fill out the paperwork to be eligible to place a bid for less than $10,000 in time and legal review.

My gripe was farmers that got foodstamps. You are on a bleeping farm, you have space to grow and raise your own food! <shakes head> (we did!-grew and raised our own!)

I am being nice. This particular person I am not mentioning (not on this forum) was supposed to be farming and wasn't. And could've if they'd just gotten off their flatside. Nuff said.

I really don't think farmers are the problem.
