Remember when teachers, public employees, Planned Parenthood, NPR and

No, but I remember when guys had tattoos and girls had ear rings.


And I can remember when Barney and Chris got us into the mess Obama can't get us out of.

Let's see, according to what I've been able to find, the TARP law allocated $700 billion. Not sure
where the 'trillions in TARP money' came from. And, it seems, if memory serves, that Obama was the
one who gave away all the TARP money.

But, I've not sailed around Cape Horn twice, and my daddy didn't cross the Atlantic in a rowboat.
