With the uncertainty of the future of America, the last thing families need is the cantankerous attitude of 78 year old hall of fame pitcher and “should be retired” Senator Jim Bunning. It burns me and probably most of Americans that we can dump billions into foreign economies and billions into bailing out the “Banking System” which got us into this in the first place, but we can’t approve an extension of benefits for struggling families. This halting move by Mr Personality had forced 2,000 federal employees into unpaid situations, and instilled jeopardy for jobless benefits for millions not to mention halted more than 40 highway projects, but guaranteed Mr Bunning got his check on time. Since the Senator is retiring after this session, no one can control his ornery attitude and close minded thought processes…….Well hes almost gone, and maybe there is a few others that should take a permanent vacation from politics as well, then maybe we can get this country back on track eventually…….just my .02c!
