Canada's Version of David Letterman's "Top 10"

Published:

 10. Only in America .... Could politicians talk about the greed of the
rich at a $35,000.00 a plate campaign fund-raising event.

 9. Only in America .... Could people claim that the government still
discriminates against black Americans when they have a black President,
a black Attorney General and roughly 39% of the federal workforce is
black while only 14% of the population is black. 45+% of all federal
entitlements goes to black Americans 3X the rate that go to whites, 5X
the rate that go to Hispanics!

 8. Only in America .... Could they have had the two people most
responsible for our tax code, Timothy Geithner (the head of the Treasury
Department) and Charles Rangel (who once ran the Ways and Means
Committee), BOTH turn out to be tax cheats who are in favor of higher
taxes.

 7. Only in America .... Can they have terrorists kill people in the name
of Allah and have the media primarily react by fretting that Muslims
might be harmed by the backlash.

 6. Only in America .... Would they make people who want to legally
become American citizens wait for years in their home countries and pay
tens of thousands of dollars for the privilege, while they discuss
letting anyone who sneaks into the country illegally just 'magically'
become American citizens.

 5. Only in America .... Could the people who believe in balancing the
budget and sticking by the country's Constitution be thought of as
"extremists."

 4. Only in America .... Could you need to present a driver's license to
cash a check or buy alcohol, but not to vote.

 3. Only in America .... Could people demand the government investigate
whether oil companies are gouging the public because the price of gas
went up when the return on equity invested in a major U.S. Oil company
(Marathon Oil) is less than half of a company making tennis shoes
(Nike).

 2. Only in America .... Could the government collect more tax dollars
from the people than any nation in recorded history, still spend a
Trillion dollars more than it has per year - for total spending of $7
Million PER MINUTE, and complain that it doesn't have nearly enough
money.

 1. Only in America .... Could the rich people - who pay 86% of all
income taxes - be accused of not paying their "fair share" by people who
don't pay any income taxes at all.


 "If you put the federal government in charge of the Sahara Desert, in
five years there would be a shortage of sand."
 (Nobel prize-winning economist Milton Friedman [1912-2006])


 The United States is a joke for the whole world. Not just Canada. This
great country of ours, as we know it, is disappearing ... So wake up
America!

Our trolls know this very well.
But they'll lie and deny it.
As is their nature.

Do they not understand what generous, means, 86%. I'll bet the illegals understand quite well, each month.

Only in America do they pass Bills into law, that they didn't even read.

If we had an IQ Test to vote, Democrats would fade away.
But they won't even allow us to require ID to prove you're an American citizen or count how many times you vote.
This isn't just corruption.
This is evil at work.

It never ends. This Top 10 list could have easily topped 50 with all the BS this administration has put this country through.
