*Congressional Reform Act of 2011*_ 1. No Tenure / No Pension. A Congressman/woman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they're out of office. 2. Congress (past, present & future) participates in Social Security. All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the American people. It may not be used for any other purpose. 3. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan, just as all Americans do. 4. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Congressional pay will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%. 5. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the same health care system as the American people. 6. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American people. 7. All contracts with past and present Congressmen/women are void effective 1/1/12. The American people did not make this contract with Congressmen/women. Congressmen/women made all these contracts for themselves. Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, so ours should serve their term(s), then go home and back to work.

Awesome Chad.

What can i say.....I am lazy and like to car camp. I have not been there since 2007 so I know nothing of your "druggy climbers" comment. Do you have another option? I am not staying at the climbers bivouac at Smith.

We will be staying in Skull Hollow.

lycra is cool again! So are I phones, bubble gum and Black Sabbath. Ten years ago I was living in my van traveling around climbing. Wait....that was 13 years ago. My bad.

I am taking my 5 year old to Smith this weekend. He has never been. I am going with my two climbing partners and their two children each. Should be a super fun time. Looks like the weather will be on our side.....anyone else going this weekend? I think we are planning on camping at Skull Hollow. If you seen a party of 8 (three adults and five children), that is us....come on over and say hi!

How far are you willing to take this argument, just so we know? right back at ya brother man........

I hate to say this....but if you don't like Alabama and its laws then move. I notice you don't even consider "work to change them" as an option. Not sure if that's because you believe laws are unchangeable or because you're just too dumb to think of that option. God damn....you are right Dru...I am just to dumb to think of that option. I would think that is the obvious choice.

You "hate to say it"? No, I don't think you do. I think people that say this kind of thing usually get a bit of an adrenaline rush, a little aggro-boost that comes from the reptilian part of the brain that irrational, anti-modern movements like fascism promote and feed on when critical thinking skills fall below a certain threshold. Good luck with that. Where do you live bro? What state? What country? I live in Washington myself and am not going to try to govern or tell Alabama how to govern themselves. It is up to the people of Alabama to elect people who will better represent them.

I hate to say this....but if you don't like Alabama and its laws then move.

Massive oil spill due to closing Energy Department, maybe toss a nuclear meltdown here and there, or reversing to the age of illiteracy due to dissolving Department of education? mmmmm..... good! It is not the federal governments job to educate (show me where it states this in the constitution) It is up to the state......

http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1011/66114.html?fb_ref=.Tpx7tnaHWrU.like&fb_source=home_oneline Ron Paul’s opinions about cutting the budget are well-known, but on Monday, he got specific: the Texas congressman laid out a budget blueprint for deep and far-reaching cuts to federal spending, including the elimination of five cabinet-level departments and the drawdown of American troops fighting overseas. There’s even a symbolic readjustment of the president’s own salary to put it in line with the average American salary. Paul will elaborate on the plan during an afternoon speech in Las Vegas ahead of Tuesday’s debate. He’ll say that his plan for $1 trillion in cuts will create a balanced federal budget by the third year of his presidency. “It’s the only plan offered by a presidential candidate that actually balances the budget and begins to pay down the debt,” top Paul adviser Jesse Benton said in a statement ahead of the speech. “And it’s the only plan being offered that tries to reign in the Federal Reserve and get inflation under control.” Many of the ideas in Paul’s 11-page “Plan to Restore America” are familiar from Paul’s staunch libertarianism, as well as tea party favorites like eliminating the departments of education and energy. But Paul goes further: he’ll propose immediately freezing spending by numerous government agencies at 2006 levels, the last time Republicans had complete control of the federal budget, and drastically reducing spending elsewhere. The EPA would see a 30 percent cut, the Food and Drug Administration would see one of 40 percent and foreign aid would be zeroed out immediately. He’d also take an ax to Pentagon funding for wars. Medicaid, the children’s health insurance program, food stamps, family support programs and the children’s nutrition program would all be block-granted to the states and removed from the mandatory spending column of the federal budget. Some functions of eliminated departments, such as Pell Grants, would be continued elsewhere in the federal bureaucracy. And in a noticeable nod to seniors during an election year when Social Security’s become an issue within the Republican primary, the campaign says that plan “honors our promise to our seniors and veterans, while allowing young workers to opt out.” The federal workforce would be reduced by 10 percent, and the president’s pay would be cut to $39,336 — a level that the Paul document notes is “approximately equal to the median personal income of the American worker.” Paul would also make far-reaching changes to federal tax policy, reducing the top corporate income tax rate to 15 percent, eliminating capital gains and dividends taxes, and allowing for repatriation of overseas capital without tax penalties. All Bush-era tax cuts would be extended. And like the rest of his GOP rivals, Paul would repeal President Barack Obama’s health care reform law, along with the Dodd-Frank financial regulatory reform law enacted last year. Paul, a longtime Federal Reserve critic, would also push a full audit of the central bank, as well as legislation to “strengthen the dollar and stabilize inflation.”

My son turned 5 on Sat. Wow.....how time is flying. I am talking him to Smith Rock this weekend with a couple friends and there kids. Should be fun!

Ron Paul baby!!!!!

An 800 billion dollar deficit in 2013. Meanwhile, our genius Barry is trying to tax millionaires which will net a whopping 40 billion a year. Yeah, Cain is a moron and Barry - like Prole and j_bot are smart. You got a better idea? lets hear it..... did you know that we spend close to 800 billion a year on wars and occupations? Think how many teacher we could pay and schools we could build with that kind of money.
