Read My Lips

You can’t read the news these days without seeing something about Obama’s big health care reform ideas. I watched his health care speech/cheer last week and I admit I’m a bit concerned. I don’t know if anyone’s told him yet, but money doesn’t grow on trees and socialized health care will cost a pretty penny. So who will pay the bills? Of course there is talk of raising taxes…tax the wealthy, tax alcohol, and there is even talk about taxing junk food and fast food. What?!?

Let me just send this message to Washington loud and clear…if you so much as put a 1% tax on pizza, In-N-Out burgers, or Baskin Robbins Mint Chip ice cream, so help me I will drive to Washington D.C. myself and give you a piece of my mind. If America becomes a place where hardworking, gym-attending individuals can’t get a delicious, moderately priced cheeseburger, then I’m not sure I’d want to live there.

Read my lips: Don’t even think about it Barack.

Read my lips: Paige For President! This is exactly why I don't watch the news anymore, I can't take the insanity!

Funny Funny Paige!

I think Angela might be onto something. You've got a little time before you have to make any big decisions (the legal presidenting age is 35, I do believe) but it could be cool. You could live in the real White House.

i totally agree with that! i say it's fine to tax the people who do gross stuff like smoke and chew, but people who like chocolate and pizza! that is just to far. cute post girly!
