Uncle Donnie's Views from Under the Bus

Hi. I'm Uncle Donnie. My family throws me under the bus regularly. I've decided to prove them all right.

These are my views, opinions and dogma. They don't represent the views of anyone but me. Whaddya gonna do? Leave the gun, take the cannoli. Lean back, drink some chianti, and enjoy my views from under the bus.

The Fed In The Red Is Next To Dead

In 1961, President John Kennedy said,"We shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet
any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and
success of liberty." If he meant that fifty years ago, he must be rollin over in his grave
about the condition of our country today.Without knowing, he was talking about our
biggest foe now.....the Federal government. The reality of unlimited government is upon us.
We are paying a ridiculous price for a burdensome government, and facing imminent
hardship from within. Our liberties are diminished in direct proportion to the unsatiable
desires of big government, and our survival is in doubt, to say the least! Not what you
were expecting, eh John? Me neither! Uncle Donnie was eight years old when this quote
was made. That would have put me in the third grade, at a time when we still practised
civil defense drills at school, where for a brief time you hadda set under your desk in
case the commies dropped the bombs, you know what I mean? The Big Red Scare,right?
Today we are scared of the BIG RED alright.....the fact that our country is in the red
fiscally is way more dangerous than the Ruskies taking over our country back in the day.
When Uncle Donnie was eight the average citizen owed nothing to pay back the national
debt coz there wasn't one; a national debt that is. Oh, how far we've come, marona mia!
Today the average eight yr. old owes the federal government, oh I dunno, maybe a hundred
thou or so.......What? O.K., maybe my numbers are off a little, but not by much.
I remember some people used to say, "well, I'd rather be Red than dead!"
The reality today is that the Fed in the Red is next to Dead!
Whattayagonnado?
Uncle D.
