Spending by our government is like riding in a Toyota without brakes. Never listen to anyone who speaks of hope, unless it's God.

Perhaps the Washington, D.C., job that needs changing is the person who screens the letters written to the president. It doesn't appear he is getting the right message.

* * *

We lost another 36,000 jobs last month. Sounds like a good reason to focus on health care. The November elections are going to be brutal for the Democrats.

* * *

The U.S. Postal Service, unless changed, will lose a quarter of a trillion dollars over the next 10 years. I long for the days when Congress only talked in losses of billions of dollars. Health care reform costs will dwarf this.

* * *

The financial problems in this country are barely getting started. Prepare for the worst. I'm negative, but I'm right.

So Karl Rove has written a book. By my count that's 15 books by these incompetent Bushies, with at least five more to come. Who buys this science fiction? Is it like a "Star Wars" cult thing? I am waiting for the limo driver's book.

No one is going to buy lottery tickets if the only choice is Kansas Cash. It would be another case of cutting off your nose to spite your face.

Think of all the extra taxes I pay as a smoker. Then just leave me alone.

* * *

The health department or city neighborhood inspectors need to check on backyards as well as front yards. Some of these neighborhoods are so trashy.

I was disgusted by the lack of handicapped parking and the inoperable auto-open doors at Century II and the utter ignorance and disregard of the majority of the Wichita Garden Show exhibitors regarding wheelchair accessibility. Nearly every exhibit garden had a steeply inclined "entryway" that kept wheelchairs out.

The Eagle missed a great opportunity with Sunday's column by Bob Lutz. The headline could have read, "Lutz on Stutz: No longer a klutz."
