In our latest "not so scientific" poll of our readers, we have tabulated the results and find that most of our readers believe that Osama is dead. 68% believe this to be true. Add another 8% think he is probably dead. However, by the same amount (8% ) are not sure. 16% said they wanted to see the body and another 16% said they would believe it when they see Obama's college records.
Wherever you stand on the issue, the White House handling of the entire debacle has been terrible. For an organization who prides themselves on running things with a consistent message, this has not been their shining hour. The inconsistent message has changed repeatedly and sometimes on a daily basis. No wonder there are some who doubt the words that emanate from Washington.
Our next poll is about the next "political show" in Washington. The effort to increase the national debt by the Democrats who claim it will cause the United States to default on its debts if the increase is not passed. On the other side, the Republicans are saying that nothing of the kind will occur. For those of us in "flyover" country, we know someone is exaggerating. It probably will be somewhere in the middle but when are these political animals we call legislators going to become statesmen/stateswomen and do what is best for the country rather than grandstanding?
Please let me know what you think?

It's true we will default on our debts without an increase in the debt ceiling, but no raise should be made without significant moves made to cut the budget. If we are going to continue to put ourselves further in debt, it better be absolutely necessary. I don't want that debt put on my tab.
