Every man and woman in this country needs to hear this little exchange. It speaks for itself.
Unbelievable.
Oh, and when Alan Grayson refers to "what is now a two trillion dollar portfolio" - how much is that?
Two billion General Grants ($1,000 apiece); or twenty billion Ben Franklins ($100 apiece).
What could you do with it?
Well - you could spend $1,000 every second for 64 years.
Or, you could make a stack of one-thousand-dollar bills 142 miles high - enough to threaten the International Space Station.
You could lay those Grants end to end around the earth's equator - eight times. If you used Franklins you could do it eighty times.
If you actually used dollar bills you could make a continuous ribbon 189,393,939.4 miles long. A fighter jet flying at the speed of sound would take over twenty-nine years to unroll it.
This didn't come from a chain email, friends. I did the math myself and if anyone doesn't believe it I'll post all the calculations.
When did America go insane?

I was trying to watch it, but the volume is extremely low. Are you able to correct that or is it just the video?
The volume is fine when I watch it - I'm not sure what to tell you.
(Anna) Dropping by to let you know that we are very exited about your new girl and we LOVE her name!!! Tell Georgina that we are so happy for her!!! Incidentally we are back in VA again and would love to see you guys whenever you feel up to a visit. We are going to be renting a farmhouse out in the country very soon and would love to have you out for a visit. My mom and dad will be out in July, if Georgina is feeling up to the trip and you guys would like to come down then as see them as well. I know Angelica would love to see Patrick again. Otherwise, be well, God bless and we send our prayers and love your way!
