I will post this same message on the Congressional Board, but thought it would be viewed better here also.

Question: Did any of you see the auto execs getting grilled about the use of private jets that took them into and away from the Congressional hearings. Boy those Senators really gave them hell. Did you hear them blame them for not going with the times, by building smaller, more fuel efficient autos instead of those gas guzzling models they furnished? Did you hear them blame each and every one of them for the current conditions of their markets?
Sort of like a spanking during class. It was beautiful.

Well guess what? There is another group in need of a good spanking and sending them home without pay. Yep, another industry has raped the general public, destroyed economic stability, spent money like there was no tomorrow, on stupid things, never watched the shareholders best interest and instead, stole them blind in that process. Who were they you ask?
Congress and Senate thats who. Well besides destroying our banking systems, no oversight given, passed laws to allow such shenanigans to happen, rubbed elbows with all the private interest, lobbyist, and had more conflicts of interest ,than a fox watching the coup. AND GUESS WHAT? They just gave themselves a raise. Ah, you did not hear about it? Yep, done under the table. Well here are the facts.
Congress just gave itself $4,700 raise for each and every senator and representative, bringing their annual salaries to $169,300 each. Almost 3% increase. Both the Senate and Congress are now in the top 5% of U.S. wage earners. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi now makes $217,400. Congress rigged the process to automatically increase their pay each year unless a majority votes against accepting the increase. If this tactic was done anywhere else it would be called consumer fraud.

I don't blame Congress. Why? Because for years they been ripping you all off and getting away with it, so why stop now. You are basically lambs to slaughter. Idiots at the highest level. They are the smart ones. They do a terrible job and pay themselves even more. I blame all of you viewing this article. Get some sacks between those legs, and get out of your chairs and do something, anything.

After all Congress has a 2% excellent approval rating. Oh, did I mention they got a 54% saying most of them should be shot and the rest feel they are idiots. Did I mention that President Bush's approval rating is better. Boy thats crazy.

Now for one of the best parts. Obama just appointed Rep. Hilda Solis-D-Yep California to the post of Sect. of Labor, who is the prime sponsor of the "Employee Free Choice Act, which would abolish the secret ballot in union elections. Oh, the best part, She is owned , lock, stock and barrel by the same unions that say EFCA is their no. 1 legislative priority. Just think about the amount of reprisals that firm will deal out to the pro union ballot box droppers? The unions that are for this legislation are basically owned and operated by their companies now. Want a job at Walmart? Tell you anything here? Sorry to disrupt your sleep, now go back to bed, while you whole world is changing.

Boats and jet skis with 4 cycle engines have oil pans close to the bottom of the hull, which typically is too close for a drain pan to be placed under the engine for catching used oil. With this in mind you can imagine that doing an oil change in a boat can be a messy proposition.
