We're already one year into the 10 and $238 BILLION is REAL money!
There is little need for the PO and less need for a $238 billon dollar bill for sticking our heads in the sand.
as far as the USPO making money? lol
"USPS has already begun taking the axe to its budget. The agency made $6 billion in cuts last year, reducing its workforce by about 40,000 employees and chopping overtime hours, transportation costs and other expenses. Congress passed legislation allowing the organization to cut retiree health benefit payments by $4 billion.
Despite those measures,
the agency still expects a net loss of $7.8 billion in fiscal 2010."
and quoting CNN feels sweet!

BTW I started this thread based on the statements of Harry Reid regarding his wife, daughters and grand-daughters and am wondering why he doesn't just provide them with health insurance instead of having them rely on Planned Parenthood clinics for care? I take it his wife is covered under his Senate policy so someone should poke him and let him know. Pitiful for the wife of the leader of the US Senate to be chauffered to a Planned Parenthood appointment for a breast exam.
