Ignoring the GSA again?

What specific policy did Obama implement that led to this situation?

 

So there you go, there are regulations, they have been broken, the IG discovered the breaks, and it sounds like you may believe that regulations are necessary... at the moment anyway, and with government in place, which you seem to be saying isn't necessary anyway. (see "libertarianism")

But, it's still good thing to hear, that regulations are necessary to prevent fraud and other misconduct by government employees and private enterprise, but remember... it's been the policy of republicans, and dramatically so since Reagan, to deregulate, and deregulation's downside is that fraud and other misconduct is not only ignored, it's made legal.

 

Yep, from "minimize what the government handles" you interpret "as having no answer" and you are not even interested in learning. So ..........

I guess you do not wish to further you knowledge about the GSA and Holder? Too embarrassing?

 

But what I really asked was what your alternative to the government handling our tax monies was. You said that the "government" can't do it but I guess you're now saying that if they do less handling of our tax money that they will somehow be better at it? Is it that the “government is handling less money or is It that there just less "government” to handle the same amount of tax money?

 

Agreed. Most people that supported Obama during his first run, myself included, expected more results on the issue of corruption in government. I knew it may prove impossible to accomplish much more than an inconsequential and dilluted law or laws though, since the corruption in Congress is severe, and that's where any significant change would need to be created.

The odds are definitely stacked against us as a nation when it comes to corrupt influences being dismissed from government, but the attempts have to be made.

So... yeah,... Obama failed to "rout out" corruption in government... but that really isn't a big surprise. Corruption is like rust, you can only prevent it for so long, and the moment you ignore it, it pops up. Once it's there, it takes extraordinary measures to remove it. For corruption in government to be "removed" (or minimized anyway, since it's a given it can't be removed entirely), Congress has to take a stand against it and take extraordinary measures... and that is highly unlikely to happen.

 

Ah! Holder is a problem! Got it.

If they handle less money, they will be no better at it, but they will have fewer GSA parties, Solyndra's, et al. And, yes, fewer people mean there will be fewer GSA type people to have parties. Now, if you wish to learn more, try looking up the TSA efficiency/costs/etc. at different airports. I assume your search function still works, or is it also messed up?

 

So it is not handling less money but there should be fewer "government" employees? Is that you answer?

 

Try reading that again and include the parts you crossed out. Still waiting for you to learn about the TSA. You might also read up on the IG's report for the GSA.

 

Not really. I think the Secret Service prostitutes incident was more interesting.

 

So government is bad at handling our tax money but you have no idea what a better alternative would be. I guess complaining actually doesn't solve anything, but government still bad.

 

Try reading that again and include the parts you crossed out. Still waiting for you to learn about the TSA. You might also read up on the IG's report for the GSA. Even Eric would get it.

 

I heard that Bill told Hillary that he would help with the investigation by going down to Columbia to get a first hand account and if the trip is properly funded, perhaps more.
But I don't think he get more for Obama is only talking about "Change"

 

I think that all you and your RW ilk do is criticize the idea of "government" but your criticism is so shallow and poorly thought out that when someone asks you for specifics, you simply dance around tangential topics (all crossed out by me) and inevitably claim that you have answered when anyone can see that the answer to a rather simple question would be a rather simple answer not the old song and dance and dodge routine.

So to prove what I’ve just said, please give us the shortest answer you can come up with that represents your opinion of the alternative to government handling our tax money. No song, no dance, just a simple answer.

 

Had you bothered to learn about the TSA (my guess is that you know what I am talking about but just refuse to admit it), you would discover the biggest part of my answer. However, the LW and their ilk seem to ignore the facts and just plod ahead in their own dream.

BTW, I just heard another. Now they want to regulate where and how you relieve yourself. The media is so partitioned that I cannot even find that one on the net yet. Getting the government out of trying to micromanage out lives would go a long way toward my goals

And changing attitudes about your "why anyone would get excited about a few hundred thousand" would also help.

 

Thanks for proving my point. You have reduced your posts to nothing more than jokes. In that vein, I have one....

BTW Do you know what the difference between soylent green and a Right-winger is?

Answer: Soylent green is people my friend.

 

I don't get it either. These guys spent $800,000+ on crap...yet didn't use any of that money for high-end hookers? What the hell is wrong with them? Wasteful... just wasteful.

 

Seriously, the Secret Service has been getting female companionship for years for free and it has been paid for by the host nation.

 

Yes two great Americans were in that movie as well as the Ten Commandments.
NRA President Charles Heston and Stand Your Ground Edward G Roobinson

 

I did not know that. I'd assumed that if I was in the SS and wanted to bang a hooker I'd have to do so when I was off duty, in an area distant from my station (such as another hotel), and would have to pay for it myself. Damn socialist secret service! ...If I had known that, I would have applied decades ago!!!

Seriously, where did you get your info on this?

 

This has been happening for decades. Not a party issue. Host nation provides the comfort.
