At the local U.S. government post office
Waiting in line for an hour and ten minutes this morning at our local suburban post office, this thought came to mind. Everyone seems to complain about and blame our banks for just about everything, but go into a bank today and usually there is pleasant smiling service within a few minutes. The post office is run by a government bureaucracy. Do we want these people who have health and retirement benefits that most people can only dream of and are oblivious to the concept of customer service to run more of our economy. Hmmm.
With this long wait I couldn't help but notice that the walls of this post office had a giant picture of George Bush with the local postmaster, an even bigger autographed picture of John McCain with his family, two autographed photos, young and old, of Bill O'Reilly who lives here, plus other residents like Boomer Esiason and Sean Landeta. There is no picture of our President.

And that's the efficiency of a Republican post office. God knows you may never get waited on in a Democratic one.
Hey anonymous pea brain,
After eight years of Republican Bush demoralizing every cabinet department's bureaucracy with a patronage system for the lazy, incompetent, and barely educated, an embarrassment that would have made Warren Harding blush, it's a really stupid statement. Even Democratic post office workers might be motivated enough now to make the system better.
Hmmm, must be that community. I have never had anything but pleasant experiences in my local Post Office!!
