You are not going to believe this. The California budget problems, overspending, etc., etc.,etc. are legendary and the laughing stock of the country. The state legislature's inability to accomplish anything is just as laughable.

So, today, we get a letter on state assembly letterhead from our local assemblyman, Bill Emmerson.

"Dear Mr. & Mrs. XXXXXXXX,

As part of an ongoing effort to reach out to constituents and be helpful where possible during this recession, I am sending you tips on managing your credit. I hope you find them useful.

Create and follow a budget.....

Pay your bills on time......

Pay more than the minimum.......

Ask for help when you need it........

Please do not hesitate to contact my office if I can be of any further assistance to you. It is a pleasure to represent you in the State Assembly.

Sincerely,

Bill EmmersonAssemblymember, District 63"

I've got an idea. How about you follow your own friggin' advice in the state assembly and do your job? Quit spending money on the letterhead and staff it took to publish this garbage!

What a moron!

That particular piece of video should be used in every campaign against anyone in Congress who votes for that bill.

That doen't exhonerate Burton from being exposed as the idiot that he is. A "birther", claiming death panels when he hasn't even read the bill, cheating on his family while touting Christian family values, having his mistress on the payroll, etc., etc., etc. The guy is a jerk.

This from July of this year

The majority of politicians are idiots. From a Federal perspective I simply want more fiscal conservatism.

Hmmm ... may be a bit more over the top than necessary. But, it is not exactly something to be entirely ignored either perhaps.

This has happened in the past: http://www.findingdulcinea.com....html ... well before the current level of terrorism activity that goes on today.
