HE SAID... Tony Walker is running for President!!!!!

TONY WALKER

This week's He Said is more like a He's Bitching.

A very good friend of mine is down on her luck. She's fighting with someone close to her, her house is in foreclosure, & she just had her hours cut at her job. She also lost all her benefits there with the cuts.
 
This makes me mad. Real mad. I personally believe every citizen of our great Country is entitled to medical benefits. I personally think it's a disgrace that this country profits from our illnesses. I am disgusted about this financial depression we're in.

Why are we in this depression? What companies are hurting? The oil companies aren't! The "Verigreedy" bastards who threw me aside because I have one leg aren't hurting! They're all making record profits while most of us live paycheck to paycheck!!

My friend has worked her ass off for years. She's never been in any trouble. She's a kind, hard working, tax paying citizen. These kind of things should not be happening to these kind of people!! Yet it's happening all over.

Why bother working if there are no benefits? No retirement packages? Let's all sit home & collect unemployment or disability.... they come with some benefits. You can get money for sitting at home all day reading Facebook statuses!

People wanna work. People wanna put pride into what they do. There's nothing wrong with being rewarded for that. Rewarded with good pay & benefits for you & your family!!!

I say it's time for a do over!! No more Republicans! No more Democrats!! NO MORE POLITICIANS!! Time for people who truly care to lead this Country back to greatness!!!

Tony Walker is running for President!!!!!

LUNCH TIME POLL

This morning 'The Associated Press' reported that a federal grand jury, in Raleigh, NC, who has been investigating the case for two years, has indicted former senator John Edwards who has been a two time presidential candidate.  The charges being that he violated campaign finance law during the 2008 presidential election campaign by receiving contributions in excess of federal limits, which were not properly reported. Additionally, misusing the funds for the purpose of hiding his extramarital affair in order to save his candidacy.  The case includes six counts, including conspiracy, four counts of illegal campaign contributions and one count of false statements. His lawyers have stated that he has refused to "bargain" a plea agreement and plans to fight the charges.  It has been reported that Mr. Edwards has supposedly stated and maintains, that he used the money to hide the affair, but for private purposes--- to conceal  it from his wife.   If the "ex-poster child" of the Democratic Party pleads guilty or loses in court he could be stripped of his law license, and could face five years in prison, and fines as high as $250,000 per count.

In 2008 Edwards admitted to the affair with Rielle Hunter, his campaign videographer.  In 2010 he admitted to being the father of Hunter's child.  Stories and rumors are swirling that he is trying to get Ms. Hunter to cover for him and even to marry him.  A marital relationship would protect him from her statements in a court of law.

"Trial or not, John Edwards is the Charlie Sheen of American politics - great hair and no chance for rehabilitation," Democratic consultant Jack Quinn told the AP.


Guilty?  Innocent? Can a tarnished image be repaired?  Do you care?  Should marital affairs matter in politics when they run rampant through the country?  Should marriage after the fact protect you from the laws if broken before the marriage?
