ABANDON YOUR CARS NOW!

As alerts and crazed messages are passed around the greater Metro Dee Cee area about the impending blanket of heavy snow, all I can say is an important Public Service announcement to those on the Beltway, 66, 395, 270, and so forth:

SNOW! ABANDON YOUR CARS NOW! RUN! GET MILK, BREAD, AND TOILET PAPER!
(why that, I have no idea, but if you've ever been in a grocery store around here when the alarm goes out...)

Your Tax Cuts at work:

Gov't Budget Surplus Hits $21B for Jan.

The federal government ran a $21 billion budget surplus last month, the best January showing in four years, as both spending and tax receipts set records for the month.

The Treasury Department said the government spent $209 billion last month, a record amount for January and up 7.9 percent from January Government tax receipts, however, also set a record for the month of $230 billion, up 13.7 percent from January 2005.


I thought that the government would run out of money, to hear the Moonbats spin it, with all those eeevil tax cuts in place.

Feh!
