It seems that daily there are so many things going on that are need to know for the average citizen.
Here are a few for today.

Psychiatrist: Obama corrupting America with socialism.

Only a month into Barack Obama’s presidency, an acclaimed psychiatrist is warning that Americans are being slowly corrupted by socialism as Obama’s policies intrude into their economic, social and political lives – a tactic he believes will secure future votes for the Democratic Party.

“We have a desperate population, and it’s feeling even more desperate than usual,” Dr. Lyle Rossiter told WND. “People are really quite frightened. They’re looking for magic, and they think they are going to find it in this man.”

Rossiter is a forensic psychiatrist and author of “The Liberal Mind: The Psychological Causes of Political Madness.” In his book, he explains how the kind of liberalism being displayed by both Barack Obama and the Democratic Party can only be understood as a psychological disorder. He examines how modern liberal collectivism undermines the legal and moral foundations of ordered liberty.

Radio chip coming soon to your driver’s license?

Privacy advocates are issuing warnings about a new radio chip plan that ultimately could provide electronic identification for every adult in the U.S. and allow agents to compile attendance lists at anti-government rallies simply by walking through the assembly.

The proposal, which has earned the support of Janet Napolitano, the newly chosen chief of the Department of Homeland Security, would embed radio chips in driver’s licenses, or “enhanced driver’s licenses.”

“Enhanced driver’s licenses give confidence that the person holding the card is the person who is supposed to be holding the card, and it’s less elaborate than REAL ID,” Napolitano said in a Washington Times report.

Carlos the Jackal to Obama: Help me find terrorist pal.

Emboldened by President Barack Obama’s announcement he will close the Guantanamo facility housing suspected terrorists, one of the most notorious leftist terrorists of the 1970s and 1980s has written the president, asking him for help in finding a “former comrade-in-arms” missing for 14 years, and closing his letter with “Allahu akbar! … yours in revolution.”

Ilich Ramirez Sanchez – aka Carlos the Jackal – penned his letter to Obama from the Paris prison where he is serving a life sentence for the murder of two French agents and an informer, and for a series of deadly bomb attacks in Paris and on French trains, the Glasgow Sunday Herald reported today.

“Mister President, Your decision to close secret CIA jails, honors you,” Carlos began before raising the issue of Bruno Breguet, a Swiss national who served as his right-hand man.

Eligibility lawyer argues for president’s deportation.

A Democrat who served as deputy attorney general in Pennsylvania and now is leading a number of lawsuits over the eligibility of President Barack Obama to occupy the Oval Office has told radio talk show host Michael Savage that not only is Obama not eligible to be president, he’s probably an illegal alien and should be deported.

“If it’s true what I am alleging, that he’s an illegal alien … [Obama] should be arrested and deported,” Berg said this week during an interview on the “Savage Nation” program.

Buffett: ‘I Did Some Dumb Things’ in 2008

Warren E. Buffett, chairman of Berkshire Hathaway investment fund and holding company and possibly still the world’s richest person, released his annual shareholders letter moments ago, in which he says, “during 2008 I did some dumb things in investments.”

“I made at least one major mistake of commission and several lesser ones that also hurt,” he said. “Furthermore, I made some errors of omission, sucking my thumb when new facts came in that should have caused me to re-examine my thinking and promptly take action.”

That “major mistake,” Buffett writes, was the purchase of millions of shares of ConocoPhillips oil company when oil prices were near their peak.

Another tidbit sent my way … it is increasingly evident that people who put faith in #44 are beginning to see the real CHANGE their votes garnered.

And that’s just the first two weeks . . . but who’s counting.
America is being run by the modern-day Three Stooges ~ Barrack, Nancy, and Harry ~ and they are still trying to define stimulus.
Stimulus is where the government gives a smidgen of your tax dollars back to you making you feel so good about yourself [stimulated] that you want to run out to Wal-Mart and buy a new Chinese-made HDTV and go home and watch Telemundo!

I have to chuckle with some of this stuff being sent my way … actually I have thought of it myself … what part of the (Glenn Beck) icing can we shove off into the Pacific. It is a time apparently for a new start and the one below appears to be a viable solution.

A TRUE SOLUTION TO STIMULUS!

Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists and Obama supporters, et al: We have stuck together since the late 1950’s, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce. I know we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but sadly, this relationship has run its course. Our two ideological sides of America cannot and will not ever agree on what is right so let’s just end it on friendly terms.

We can smile and chalk it up to irreconcilable differences and go our own way. Here is a model separation agreement:

Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by landmass each taking a portion. That will be the difficult part, but I am sure our two sides can come to a friendly agreement. After that, it should be
relatively easy! Our respective representatives can effortlessly divide other assets since both sides have such distinct and disparate tastes. We don’t like redistributive taxes so you can keep them. You are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU. Since you hate guns and war, we’ll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA and the military. You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore and Rosie O’Donnell (You are, however, responsible for finding a bio-diesel vehicle big enough to move all three of them).

We’ll keep the capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical companies, Wal-Mart and Wall Street. You can have your beloved homeless, homeboys, hippies and illegal aliens. We’ll keep the hot Alaskan hockey moms, greedy CEO’s and rednecks. We’ll keep the Bibles and give you NBC and Hollywood.

You can make nice with Iran and Palestine and we’ll retain the right to invade and hammer places that threaten us. You can have the peaceniks and war protesters. When our allies or our way of life are under assault, we’ll help provide them security.

We’ll keep our Judeo-Christian values.. You are welcome to Islam, Scientology, Humanism and Shirley McClain. You can also have the U. N. but we will no longer be paying the bill.

We’ll keep the SUVs, pickup trucks and oversized luxury cars. You can take every Subaru station wagon you can find.

You can give everyone healthcare if you can find any practicing doctors. We’ll continue to believe healthcare is a luxury and not a right. We’ll keep The Battle Hymn of the Republic and the National Anthem. I’m sure you’ll be happy to substitute Imagine, I’d Like to Teach the World to Sing, Kum Ba Ya or We Are the World.

We’ll practice trickledown economics and you can give trickle up poverty your best shot. Since it often so offends you, we’ll keep our history, our name and our flag.

Would you agree to this? If so, please pass it along to other like minded liberal and conservative patriots and if you do not agree, just hit delete. In the spirit of friendly parting, I’ll bet you ANWAR which one of us will need whose help in 15 years.

Sincerely,

John J. Wall (Law Student and an American)

P. S. Also, please take Barbara Streisand & Jane Fonda with you.

The federal government is well on its way to dictatorship. Controlling 20% of the economy doesn’t seem to satisfy the incompetent idiots in Washington and soon they will be going for more. Socialized medicine will add 16% of the economy into the federal sector. Banks another 10%. Why not go for the auto industry? And of course the bail out are already pushing the federal government’s involvement into the economy up to 22%. And of course this does not count the state and local governments 20% control of their share of the economy. Add it all up and you’re looking at government control over 70% of the economy. And there you have it. The socialist promise and then the fascist boot up the ass.

The founding fathers knew of monopolies and government control of business and literally revolted. The Boston Tea Party was a tax payer revolt plain and simple. We never had a federal income tax until 1913. Never had a permanent federal bank until 1913. And we prospered as a nation. No Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare, Section 8 Housing or any federal programs. Welfare was a local concern for the local politicians and religious organizations. Exactly as the founding fathers had envisioned for our country. Now we have dictatorship frantically striving to consolidate power.

When this government eventually collapses in the future here is the amendments I would like to see.

28th Amendment. Repeal of the 16th amendment allowing a federal income tax. Prohibiting all forms of taxation except the national sales tax or “Fair Tax.” No tariffs or user fees. Nothing but a national sales tax would be allowed for the federal government.

29th Amendment. Term limits for all federal workers to twelve years including members of the house, senate and the president to 8 years excluding military personal. Why do we want career federal employees? Let them get a job in the private sector and work for a change. Only military personal would be exempt.

30th Amendment. Prohibition of the federal government from legislating, taxing or paying for social engineering programs. Prohibit the federal government from making any private citizen payments except in the case of wrongful deprivation of a persons or companies life, liberty or property. Social Security is bust. Medicare and Medicaid will drop this country like a rock into debt. Housing for the poor is a horrible disaster. Time to let the state and local governments do the social engineering. We don’t need no federal education. We don’t need no thought control.

31st Amendment. Prohibit federal courts from ruling on all social engineering programs set up by the states. Legislating from the bench is very destructive. Time for it to end.

32nd Amendment. Prohibiting all federal and state government financing and legislating local primary and secondary school. Get out of our schools. We don’t need indoctrination from flunkies who failed calculus. Let the people run the schools at the local level.

33rd Amendment. Prohibit all unionization of federal, state and local government workers. We know the track record of unions. We see General Motors and Chrysler on the news everyday. Bankruptcy and bail outs are nothing to be proud of or encourage.

34th Amendment. Prohibit the federal government from regulating any and all drugs. Drug laws should be at the local level. I mean really does anyone in his or her right mind think the “War on Drugs” has accomplished anything except getting people killed and spreading violence? Take a look at Mexico and the killing down there. Soon to be crossing the border into the United States. Prohibition doesn’t work and never has. Grow up.

35th Amendment. Any citizen convicted of three felonies will immediately receive a vasectomy or tubal ligation. Any citizen with children that required government assistance will immediately receive a vasectomy or tubal ligation. If you can’t feed them then don’t breed them.

36th Amendment. Voting in federal and state elections is limited to persons receiving a four year college degree at an accredited university, home ownership or business ownership with gross receipts over $250,000 adjusted annually for inflation. US citizenship must be proved to the satisfaction of a court of law. Local elections are open to all persons 18 and older including foreign residences residing in the local communities. Federal and state election must be held on different days than local elections. We have all had enough of the Obama 20 year old idiots out to save the world voting and screwing up our politicians into mindless zombies searching for the next few billion to hand out. If you’re stupid or ignorant you shouldn’t vote. It’s that simple.

I am sure there are a few more and when the next revolution comes those areas of the country fortunate enough to have decent people like our founding fathers should learn from the demise of our government and adopt these principles. Large federal governments lead to dictatorship and catastrophe. The only legitimate function of the federal government is to have a first class military and settle disputes between states. All the social engineering needs to be done at the state or local level. As it was in the past.

I have resigned myself to what is ‘IS‘.
Trying to figure out who is doing what and why or who isn’t doing what they are more than handsomely paid to do and why is simply much to energy consuming.

I was watching a political discussion yesterday when the discussion turned to the stock market. The average gist of it was … in time it will rally. Investors will begin to have confidence and the market will stabilize and in about 5 years will recover.

With that … the total idiocy of the whole conversation struck and I was laughing hysterically.
What can these people be thinking … I know they are not!

This has become the favorite quote of my cousin and I.

Forget the banks, forget the stock market!
Goods in hand are a better investment now days … like maybe a bag of wheat?
If there is a silver lining in any of this those in charge of this collapse will be waiting in some bread line for a loaf. Why? Because they are to busy screwing us all they never learned to bake bread themselves.

Wait! Exactly what did they EVER learn, where and why? We all know the answer to that don’t we? NOTHING except screwing us all or one another.

It’s time to face reality.
THE STOCK MARKET HAS CRASHED!
It has just not hit bottom yet.
Why? Because those who manipulate it ARE NO LONGER IN CONTROL of it. They think they are but take a look … it continues to slide. Anyone adding one more cent to this institute is ‘totally daffed’ or a masochist. Why hasn’t it yet hit bottom? Because those in charge have not yet raped the 401K and IRA investments for all they can YET.

Everyone keeps saying the stock market can not crash like ‘29.
Have you heard and know the meaning of DENIAL?
Who today is promoting a rise like the proverbial phoenix?
Those who have MOST TO LOSE when it totally bottoms.

There are great buys out there right?
Who do you trust?
How do we any longer know HOW MANY Madoffs there are still suckering us all in?
We don’t … that’s what happens with an industry that gets greedy and does not police itself.
EVERYONE FAILS!

Look around you folks … we live in a paper society.
There is NOTHING but YOUR LABOR AND SKILL that is worth anything to you or the government.
This government has mortgaged that to the hilt for years to come.
Brace yourselves because its YOUR LABOR AND SKILL that will be taxed in one way or another to pay for this folly.
What you can produce with that labor and skill is the ONLY THING that will save you from the worst that is headed our direction.

If you are a good boy/girl scout … BE PREPARED!

Well it’s been one excruciating month of our communist educated president’s term in office. The teleprompter reading dolt has given the American people a press conference. Probably one of the few where he answers questions in an open manner. And the democrats are running full bore on destroying freedom and capitalism by any means necessary.

We got our fourth round of deficit spending. For those who forgot we had the bail out checks for a $152 billion. Then we got the housing bail out for $300 billion. Of those who took advantage of this 55% are now in default from this and the numbers are rising. Then we got the $700 banking bail out. These previous bail outs under Republican President Bush and the traitors to the people and most Republicans John McCain and John Boehner providing support and cover for democrats. Granted the democrats were in control of the congress and senate but Bush had the veto power. And now the latest buffoonery from the dictators in Washington the $825 billion bail out or as some would call it the Democratic Party pay out bill. So what we have here is a full blown assault on the treasury by both Republicans and Democrats.

And how have the capitalist reacted to this massive stupidity? Well in April of 2008 the stock market was in a rally up to 12,800 with the anticipation Bush would act like a Republican and veto any lack of common sense from Nancy Pelosi and congress. Bush proved to be as much of dumb ass as Nancy and bail out number one was soon signed for $152 billion and we all got a rebate check. The Dow Jones Industrial Average plunged to 11,380 by June 2008. There was another rally to 11,450 but that was soon squashed like an honor student in a Detroit ghetto. The second bail out of $300 billion sent the stock market down to 9,000 and the third $700 billion bail out along with our Dear Leader’s election sent the market to 8,800. Now with the latest socialist fascist bail out the market stands at 7,365.

Socialist and fascist would argue that the banks were failing and the stock market would have crashed anyway. Nothing could be further from the truth. If the banks were allowed to fail and the good assets divvied up among stronger banks the capitalist would be celebrating. That’s not to say that there would not have been fluctuations in the stock market. Of course there would be as the giants came crashing down. But the well run banks would have picked up the pieces and in the long run the economy would have been stronger as well as the stock market. Capitalism only works if the incompetent and weak are allowed to fail. Citibank should be history but they live on as some sick deranged animal infecting the healthy.

Is the lesson sinking in? Nothing could be clearer here. The government’s job is to protect the people and currency. When they fail to protect the currency the markets reacts. Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Alan Greenspan, Maxine Waters and George Bush failed to protect the currency all in their own destructive ways.

Let’s be clear. All these people and our Dear Leader have led us down the road to a mixture of fascism and socialism. We are going there. These movements can last 12 years as the case with Hitler or 72 years in the case of the former USSR. What we have here is the stupid and incompetent have gained control of the federal government as our founding father warned us would happen someday and they are taking us down the road to dictatorship and war.

How do I know the economic policies of the Dear Leader and the democrats will fail? Democrats and Keynesians always like to point to FDR’s New Deal. Well the New Deal brought a average unemployment rate of 17.2%. No thanks.
Then the democrats argue well FDR just wasn’t spending enough money and when WWII came finally enough money was in the system to reduce unemployment. Well let’s look at this argument. 9 million men and women enlisted in the military during WWII. Of those 416,800 died. Certainly a way to reduce the unemployment rate but it would be nice not to repeat this experiment in American history.

And what about the spending? In WWII 37% of the economy was devoted to war. The debt was 118% of the GDP. Currently our monetary base is up about 105% right along with our debt.

To counter these inflationary forces democrats conveniently forget to tell people the federal government had to have massive bond buying programs to get money out of circulations. Another fact conveniently omitted is the black market was a large part of the economy during WWII. Gasoline, sugar, meat, flour were all sold on the black market at extremely expensive rates with no supervision over the sanitary or quality of these products. Finally the other thing Keynesian economists forget to tell you about WWII spending getting the United States out of the Great Depression is the rationing. Yes everything was rationed just like in the former USSR or Cuba today. So many gallons of gas. So many eggs, flour, and so forth. Complete control over the people. Thanks but no thanks. Think I would rather put up with the capitalist pigs.

And this is the “rational” argument people like Fox News contributor Democratic strategist Tonya Acker spits out week after week to the pundits on Bulls and Bears and the other three Cost of Freedom business related programs. Completely absurd arguments to the highly educated capitalist pig panel of mostly stock brokers.

Our Dear Leader is no different from Tonya Acker. Totally clueless about capitalism and how it works because of indoctrinations in primary, secondary, junior college, college and finally graduate school. None of these people have run a business. None of them could tell you the difference between a marginal rate and average rate of taxation. They are completely clueless reading their Rules of Radical books and Chairman Mao’s little Red Book. If they knew what they were arguing for, really understood the implications of these disastrous policies, I seriously doubt any of them would be arguing for these policies. The people at the top would be just fine with these policies but any working man or woman who understood the death, desperation, deprivation that will results would change political registration from democrat and republican to libertarian in a New York minute.

And of course there is the republican argument that if they get control of congress in 2010 it will be reversed. No it will not be reversed. Republicans believe in these policies as much s democrats do. Not all republicans but the leadership does. The Republican Party is corrupt and people who believe in freedom and liberty need to accept that fact. They are part of the problem not a solution. Change your registration to libertarian.

And how do I know these policies will lead to war? What if you were the leader of China right now? You bought trillions of US debt. You bought these financial instruments in good faith with the expectation that while they were not stock market killers at least they would appreciate in value. Now a socialist fascist government is in control in Washington printing and borrowing money like its water. You and your country will lose trillions. Your population of 1.3 billion people is struggling on a per capita income of $6,100 per year. What to do? South Korea would be a nice acquisition to the empire. Taiwan is part of China why not retake ownership? Invading and expanding the economic pie would certainly be tempting in bad economic ties. And Japan with no military sits just a few kilometers to the east of South Korea. Suddenly the lemons the United States has given you become an opportunity to make some lemonade. With a weak and dysfunctional United States suddenly everything changes. Bad economic policies lead to war plain and simple.

So what to do? Insist republican purge their leadership of sell outs like John McCain, John Boehner, Susan Collins, Arlen Specter, and Olympia Snowe. Tell them to switch party affiliations to democrats and run against them in the primaries if they don’t. We need fighters not traitors. Time to send the traitors packing. Court blue dog democrats and try to get them to switch party affiliations. Draw up the battle lines. Change is coming. Fight or get out of the way. Better yet change party affiliation to libertarian. This would send a clear message to the democrats that the dog is about to fight and to China we will take care of our own house.

With out this total and complete devotion to freedom and liberty we will suffer years of economic malaise and finally end up in horrible war if Keynesian economics works like it did in the 1930’s and 40’s.

As for our Dear Leader he’s an affirmative action dolt who reads a teleprompter and fires up the ignorant masses. Hugo Chavez and Barrack Obama are on the same game plan and path to be dictators for life. In Venezuela Chavez controls elections much like democrats do today. Did any Republican win a close governors or senators race since 2004? Why? Statistically impossible. Chavez rigs elections plain and simple. Democrats are no different. Get use to it. Free elections are a thing of the past and even then they were fraudulent but at least the fraud was on both sides.

We have a dictator and a legislative branch that will support the dictator much the same as in Venezuela. Soon armed bands of Obama supporters will be roaming our cities killing opposition leaders and terrorizing civilians the same as in Venezuela. Death squads will kill opposition college students and leaders like in Venezuela. When the people elect a third world politician they will get third world policies. Elections have consequences.

Obama will go after gun owners. The Democratic Party will continue marginalizing religion and family pretty much the same way they have since 1965. Free speech will be squashed by the Fairness Doctrine and teams of lawyers suing television, radio and web sires. The usual tyrant goals of disarming and enslaving the population. And most likely no one will oppose the stupid bastard and his party until we are a conquered nation much like Germany in 1945. The Affirmative Action President gets an “F” in the real word but an “A” from his blind worshipers in the press and his party.

A book review and worthy read.

A Possible Post Mortum of the United States Constitution and the Bill of Rights,
By James E. Egolf, MA

Messers Woods and Gutzman wrote a provocative book that should be read by Americans who actually care about law-and-order plus individual liberties. This reviewer has noticed that the number of Americans who do care is quite small. The book deals “The Dirty Dozen” cases and instances of abuse of government power, and the authors readily admit that this book could have been exponentially larger. This review will not cover all “The Dirty Dozen” examples which would make the review too tedious. However, the general scheme of the book will be examined.

The first example cited in this book dealt with the arbitrary laws that violated First Amendment rights of Free Speech and Free Press (1917-1918). U.S. authorities could make arrests and prosecutions for the most innocent remarks that could have been construed as critical of U.S. intervention into W.W. I. What was worse,the authors cited examples of official tattle tales who reported on neighbors’comments. As an aside, Messers Woods and Gutzman demolish the statement alleged by Pres. Woodrow Wilson who supposedly expressed regret for agreeing to the Declaraion of War. The authors clearly that the statement was fabricated by Wilson’s sycophants who tried to cover Wilson’s blunder. The basic constitutional point made my Messers Woods and Gutzman is that the First Amendment clearly states that Congress shall make no law abridging the rights of Free Speech and Free Press. Yet, power hungry political hacks and unthinking Americans accepted all of this with little protest. One should note that the American people are so poorly read and so ready to believe media accounts that such oppressive laws are no longer necessary. The American media folks have so censored themselves that censorship laws are unnecessary. Too many Americans are too immune to truth and reason to notice.

Messers Woods and Gutzman had a good examination of Pres. Truman’s attempt to seize American steel mills because labor union leaders wanted more than steel executives were willing to give. Truman’s threat was made to curry favor with steel workers and increase wages. The U.S. Supreme Court Justices ruled against the Truman Administration. However, as Messers Woods and Gutzman noted, the ruling was not strong enough. Also they alerted readers that if a President could seize steel mills, he could also seize steel mills or any industry to REDUCE wages.

The chapters dealing with the civil rights cases were carefully researched and clear. The authors show that in an attempt to end discrimination, they only made it worse. School authorities were scolded because of the changing demographics. Civil rights laws which forbade assigning students to schools by race were ignored by federal judges who ordered busing to schools based on race. The consistently flawed federal rulings that changed almost overnight resulted in such confusion that court orders for busing had to end.

The chapter titled The Great Gold Robbery showed an arbitrary U.S. Government whose authorities went after law abiding citizens whose only crime was that they owned gold. This “legal” basis for this decision was that the federal authorities could do this under W.W. I laws about trading with the enemy (Today U.S. defined enemies change as often as one changes shirts). In other words, U.S. citizens who happened to own gold were suddenly enemies. Such arbitrary power needs no further comment.

This reviewer thought the chapter on “The Wall of Separation” was the weakest, but this chapter was still well written. As an aside, this reviewer is not offended if someone has a menorah or a creche on their premises. If Christians wish me a Merry Christmas or Jews wish me Happy Hanukkah, this reviewer is not offended and accepts the statements in the spirit in which such comments are made. If Hindus or Moslems offter greetings, again, such statements are accepted as gestures of good will.
Messers Woods and Gutzman stated that the people in the states should determine public school or any public display of religious symbols. What should have been considered is that some state authorities can use their power to coerce of intimidate those of a different religion. In other words, state authorities can be as oppressive as federal authorities. Too often legal cases reach the courts because, for example, some school official or coach will demean or intimidate anyone who has different religious convictions. However, the chapter has merit because of “overkill” by those opposed to any religious symbols in public places.

The chapter on military conscription was very good. Messers Woods and Gutzman provided substantial research that the Founding Fathers and early National political leaders were opposed to a national military conscription which started in Europe. The quatation of Danial Webster on the floor of Congress rejecting a draft is worth noting. Readers should note that many who want military conscription want it for everyone else except themselves. Walter Lippman promoted military conscription until he realized he too could be conscripted. He managed to get cushy government while exhorting other Americans to risk their lives (a real hero here). The former U.S. House member Andy Jacobs called such cowards, who want wars but want others to do the killing and the dying, war wimps and chicken hawks. Mr. Jacobs was a decorated Marine during the Korean War.

The chapter titled “Do Americans have a Constitutional Duty to Suffer?” is a good example of judicial stupiidty and bureaucratic nonsense. This chapter cites federal attempts to stop people who are suffering from using medical marijuana. The unreasonable judicial rulings stated that home-grown marijuana could be eliminated by the power of the Interstate Commerece Clause of the Constitution. Since the plants were used for immediate medical use per physicians’ prescriptions, the illogic of using the plants could affect interstate commerice is obvious.

The chapters dealing with excutive orders, war powers, and signing statements are ominous. Messers Woods and Gutzman carefully demonstrated that such powers are unconstitutional and lawful. Executive orders began with the administration of the Pres. Theodore Roosevelt when he granted diplomatic recognition to a country when the U.S. Senate refused to do so. Pres. Theodore Roosevelt simply used a different phrase via executive order. The chapter titled “The phony Case for Presidental War Power” offers a stinging rebuke of a law clerk and later government “Justice” Dept. offical name Yoo. Yoo wrote a poorly reasoned law review article which stated that the U.S. President can use his war powers to send combat forces anywhere any time he damned well pleases. The Constitution history and warnings of the Founding Fathers are well cited in this section. The chapter on signing statements would be amusing if not so dangerous. Messers Woods and Gutzman give precise ecamples of how signing statements, which only express a president’s disapproval of a section of a bill, have been recently used to violate the law especially duirng the Clinton and Bush administrations. To use signing statements as pretext to violate the law is unconstitutional and illegal. An opinion is not a constitutional power to break the law.

The last chapter titled “Can Anything Be Done?” is not hopeful at all. When most Americans are concerned about what dress some celebrity is wearing, the abuses of the Constitution will never get corrected. As this reviewer has stated elsewhere, the American people have raised thoughtlessness to a virtue.

I am a little tired of listening to ‘black politicians’ denigrate their own race and then turn around and denigrate whites because they themselves were born black.

Boo FRIGGING Hoo!
Part of these idiots were still in pampers while a MAJORITY of US WHITES were marching for their very equality and right to stand on some pulpit and spout this total trash.

Who am I referring to specifically today?

South Carolina Rep. Jim Clyburn. As the highest-ranking black in the U.S. House, he said that opposition to the stimulus bill is “a slap in the face of African-Americans.”

Hey you small minded twit … how about it’s a slap in the face of EVERY TAX PAYER who is FORCED to pay for this folly?

Then Eric Holder has the audacity to call us a nation of cowards?
HOW DARE YOU! If it was not for this nation of cowards you would NOT HAVE the soapbox from which you spout today.

What this man says about sums it up far better than I ever could.

What others have to say via Michael Savage talk radio:

Let me again remind visitors to this site of my opinion on several things.
Politically Correct was a miserable attempt by the ‘whiners of the world’ to continue in their cushy rut of ‘failing to thrive and survive in a tough world’.

EVERY minority group will have someone or some many who have an agenda that dooms that minority group to mediocrity.

Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and their likes have an agenda to keep minorities slaves to the system.

Let me point out the hierarchy to this system.
Government = Slave owners
Slaves = those on the government dole … who today are required to do nothing period.
Share Croppers = those of us paying taxes to the government in order for the government to pass it on to the slaves who do nothing.

To top it off the SLAVE OWNERS (politicians) … are siphoning of a handsome sum (they ALSO DOING NOTHING) for perpetuating this growing of slave population.

Inertia spawns inertia.
There is a UNIVERSAL LAW … if you do nothing, NOTHING HAPPENS.

3 to 4.3 Billion Barrels of Technically Recoverable Oil Assessed in North Dakota and Montana’s Bakken Formation—25 Times More Than 1995 Estimate—

Reston, VA – North Dakota and Montana have an estimated 3.0 to 4.3 billion barrels of undiscovered, technically recoverable oil in an area known as the Bakken Formation.

A U.S. Geological Survey assessment, released April 10, shows a 25-fold increase in the amount of oil that can be recovered compared to the agency’s 1995 estimate of 151 million barrels of oil.

Technically recoverable oil resources are those producible using currently available technology and industry practices. USGS is the only provider of publicly available estimates of undiscovered technically recoverable oil and gas resources.

New geologic models applied to the Bakken Formation, advances in drilling and production technologies, and recent oil discoveries have resulted in these substantially larger technically recoverable oil volumes. About 105 million barrels of oil were produced from the Bakken Formation by the end of 2007.

Sources have forwarded this Report news of a serious gaffe by Democratic Senator Dianne Feinstein. It proves she apparently has no business chairing the Senate Intelligence Committee. This serious embarrassment was virtually smothered by American media outlets.

The CIA and The Pentagon refused to comment on this matter when questioned by The UK’s Daily Telegraph. In a breathtaking example of incompetence Feinstein publicly revealed a military secret during an open Committee hearing last Friday.

In what must have been a “senior moment” the new Chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, confirmed that American unmanned drone spy planes are being launched from tribal areas in Pakistan.

At one point while in a cross examination of Dennis Blair Director of National Intelligence, Feinstein commented, “I don’t know whether you’d care to comment on this but [I] also noticed that Mr. Holbrooke in Pakistan ran into considerable concern about the use of the Predator strikes in the FATA area of Pakistan.”

“And yet, as I understand it, these are flown out of a Pakistani base.” Feinstein added.

This was sent to me today by a friend.

I happen to be old enough to remember Ronald Reagan and experienced him as a politician as Governor of California. Before it was SO FAR GONE.

He campaigned for change and unlike today … CHANGE IS WHAT WE GOT … only then it was for the better. He slashed thru the budget like it was butter while the ‘liberals’ and ’slaves to the state’ moaned and whined. The end result was his advancement to the White house and we know the results there.

These quotes made me smile … hope they do the same for you.

‘Here’s my strategy on the Cold War: We win, they lose.’ - Ronald Reagan

‘The most terrifying words in the English language are: I’m from the government and I’m here to help.’ - Ronald Reagan

‘The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they’re ignorant; it’s just that they know so much that isn’t so.’ - Ronald Reagan

‘Of the four wars in my lifetime, none came about because the U.S. was too strong.’
- Ronald Reagan

‘I have wondered at times about what the Ten Commandments would have looked like if Moses had run them through the U.S. Congress.’ - Ronald Reagan

‘The taxpayer: That’s someone who works for the federal government but doesn’t have to take the civil service examination.’
- Ronald Reagan

‘Government is like a baby: An alimentary canal with a big appetite at one end and no sense of responsibility at the other.’
- Ronald Reagan

‘The nearest thing to eternal life we will ever see on this earth is a government program.’ - Ronald Reagan

‘It has been said that politics is the second oldest profession. I have learned that it bears a striking resemblance to the first.’ - Ronald Reagan

‘Government’s view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.’ - Ronald Reagan

‘Politics is not a bad profession. If you succeed, there are many rewards; if you disgrace yourself, you can always write a book.’ - Ronald Reagan

‘No arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is as formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women.’ - Ronald Reagan

‘If we ever forget that we’re one nation under God , then we will be a nation gone under.’ - Ronald Reagan

I am a big believer in the “law of return” call it what you will, karma, sow what you reap, tit for tat, chickens come home to roost, an eye for an eye.

Those trained to be observant see this work daily. NO ONE ESCAPES. The thing I find most interesting is the payback is usually PERFECT. It strikes at the very heart of what we desire most in the world. WHATEVER that desire might be … it will be withheld or tarnished in some way. There is no REWARD for bad behavior. There is no discussion of what is or is not bad behavior …. WE ALL innately know in our heart.

Here is a perfect example:

We all know how a large part of the population has ragged incessantly on George Bush for one thing or another over the last 8 years. The bottom line is simple. No matter what anyone says … this man and his family are the epitome of classy.

Hillary and Bill Clinton were for the most part darlings of politics for the 8 years he held office. Clinton received a pass for most of his past bad behavior. Hillary went along for whatever reason and actually was a part of it all on some level.

It is my belief her fondest desire was the Presidency of 2008. It was snatched from her grasp from literally an unknown at the last moment. Why? How did this happen? Barack Obama CERTAINLY OFFERED NOTHING in the way of experience over what Hillary had to offer.

The sad TRUTH is Barack Obama had less to offer in any way shape or form than Sarah Palin. Who today is still ragged on incessantly by those who dislike her for whatever their reasons. But those who dislike her can not seem to see that for themselves. It is an interesting dichotomy to observe.

The comparison of behavior between outgoing President Bush & family and President Clinton & Hillary is an interesting example indeed.

Now:
1. Outgoing President George W. Bush quietly boards his helicopter and leaves for Texas, commenting only: “Today is not about me. Today is a historical day for our nation and people.”

Eight years ago:
1. Outgoing President Bill Clinton schedules two separate radio addresses to the nation, and organizes a public farewell speech/ rally in downtown Washington D.C. scheduled to directly conflict with incoming President Bush’s inauguration ceremony.

Now:
2. President Bush leaves office without issuing a single Presidential pardon, only granting a commutation of sentence to two former border patrol agents convicted of shooting a convicted drug smuggler. He does not grant any type of clemency to Scooter Libby or any other former political aide, ally, or business partner.

Eight years ago:
2. President Clinton issues 140 pardons and several commutations of sentence on his final day in office. Included in these are: billionaire financier, convicted tax evader, and leading Democratic campaign contributor Marc Rich; Whitewater scandal figure Susan McDougal; Congressional Post Office Scandal figure and former Democratic Congressman Dan Rostenkowski; convicted bank fraud, sexual assault and child porn perpetrator and former Democratic Congressman Melvin Reynolds; and convicted drug felon Roger Clinton, the President’s half-brother.

Now:
3. The Bush daughters leave gift baskets in the White House bedrooms for the Obama daughters, containing flowers, candy, stuffed animals, DVD’s and CD’s, and heartfelt notes of encouragement and advice for the young girls on how to prepare for their new lives in the White House.

Eight years ago:
3. Clinton and Gore staffers rip computer wires and electrical outlets from the White House walls, stuff piles of notebook papers into the White House toilets, systematically remove the letter “W” from every computer key-pad in the entire White House, and damage several thousand dollars worth of furniture in the White House master bedroom.

Headlines 4 Years Ago:
“Republicans spending $42 million on inauguration while troops Die in unarmored Humvees”
“Bush extravagance exceeds any reason during tough economic times”
“Fat cats get their $42 million inauguration party, Ordinary Americans get the shaft”

Headlines Now:

For Valentines Day 2009 last Saturday I thought it would be a nice gesture to take my wife to Daytona during its most famous week. That would of course be the week of the Daytona 500. For those not familiar with NASCAR racing Daytona is the first event of the 36 event season that closes out November 22 in Homestead, Florida. There are races during the week leading up to the 500 main event. These lesser events allow the race teams to gain race experience and fine tune their stock cars. For Valentines Day we had the Camping World 300 with a purse of $2.6 million.

These racing events are a huge economic benefit to Daytona and a huge headache for the locals. Traffic jams and country folks clog the highways in every direction as far away as Orlando. Pickups, Impalas, campers, RV’s and every muscle car know to man populate the streets and towns around Daytona. I wanted to beat the crowd and mad rush of insanity so the wife and I left five hours early from Orlando for the hour drive. When we arrived the traffic was light to medium. Hmmm.

We drove around the west side of the track next to the public parking and were astonished to see acres of parking space available. Then we pulled into Cracker Barrel on US 92 about a half a block from the speedway, parked and were seated within 10 minutes. Simply unheard of in the past at Daytona where the wait is usually an hour plus during speed week for a nearby quality restaurant.

During most years US 92 next to the speedway is to be avoided at all cost. We drove up and down it a few times and were immediately struck at the huge volume of tickets for sale and the desperation of the sellers. These were not your normal scalpers trying to make some money for some Saturday night shenanigans. These were the country folks out there frantically looking for anyone to buy their tickets. It was unusual for me because the country folks outnumbered the normal scalpers by my estimation 2 or 3 to one. Never seen anything like it before.Seizing the moment I soon began to haggle.

For the uninitiated the quick rules of scalping are as follows. If the event is sold out offer 75% of the face value of the ticket but is prepared to pay 100% or more. If the event is not sold out offer 50% and depending on walk up demand be prepared to pay 50% to 75%. If you really want low prices you will have to scout the crowd for the original owners of the tickets and offer them 25% of the face value like the scalpers do. For most people this is extremely distasteful both dealing with original owners and scalpers and they buy tickets ahead of time.

I have attended hundreds of sporting events, concerts, political events and have bought tickets at the window, on Ticketmaster, from athletic departments, from scalpers and from original owners. Hands down the worst place to buy tickets is from Ticketmaster and on the Internet. They add bogus fees, sell the worst seats and try to get you to sign up for some useless club memberships. Nobody else even comes close for the rip off Ticketmaster has inflicted on me. I vow to never use them again after getting the worse seats in the house every time.

Athletic departments and professional teams usually through the arena box office sell at face value and can occasionally get you some preferential treatment. Honest folks looking to take care of their clientèle.

The best bargain by far hands down that I have gotten through the years has been with scalpers. I almost always pay less than face value and typically save 40% on tickets. I look at the face value of the ticket and offer 50%. The scalper counteroffers 75% and I walk away until I can get that 50% to 60% range I am looking for. Having a map of the arena or having it memorized is a must. Ending up in the visiting section of a college football game is no fun at all.

At Daytona Saturday what I saw was not the normal barter of buyers and sellers exchanging tickets and money. What I saw was full blown panic as hundreds of sellers desperately looked for buyers. Scalpers had thousands of tickets on every block and in the back lots as well. Panic, a full blown panic.

I went up to a few and offered 50% and my offer was immediately accepted. Being an economist kind of guy with a couple of useless degrees in the subject I had to probe this phenomenon further. I gave my standard excuse that I needed to get money from the ATM but thanked the gentleman for his offer. A few more offers at 50% and immediate acceptance with the notable exception of one scalper who looked incoherent from a previous night’s indulgence in various substances unknown to me and probably himself. It was time to search for the bottom of this market. Soon I had a 40% offer. Finally I achieved the bottom and made an offer of 30% on a couple of grand stand seats in the Roberts Tower section of the race track. $70 for $240 seats. Good seats close to the start finish line and with a view of pit row. The football equivalent of seats on the 25 yard line. The only time I have ever achieved this was buying tickets from original owners at an unattended football game.

When we parked close to race time there was still acres of unused parking spaces. In the stands there were thousands of empty seats. The crowd was announced at 70,000 for the 168,000 seat venue but I would estimate the crowd at 60,000 or less. The back stretch grandstands were filled with maybe 15% and my section has less than that.

As if to drive home the point that times have changed the pastor who gave the traditional prayer before the race said “we hope to go forth in this new era with generosity not greed.” Wow a dose of Carl Marx at the one place I hope to get away from the political correctness of the day. How sad in America no place is immune from the march of the socialist and fascist waiving their flag and giving their political indoctrination talking points to the masses. I wanted to scream “greed motivated the clothing manufacturer to make your clothes you ungrateful jerk. Get lost.” But the microphone was soon passed and the incident forgotten.

Tony Stewart won the race and my favorite driver Greg Biffle finished 5th. My wife was happy with her valentines present and we planned the rest of the evening with a nice dinner, a dozen roses and a couple of bottles of Sonoma Valley Zinfandel.

Today the main event will take place and I hope it works out well for Biffle and all our country men and women who have made this country the great place that it is. Sooner that we think we will be working together in the coming years to undue the damage that the past and current administrations have done to this country. Nothing like a good old boy to have as ones ally in the fight for freedom and liberty.

PS Matt Kenseth was the surprise winner of the main event and the place was sold out. Congratulations Matt and the good people running the event. Best wishes for the rest of the season.

I found this posted on a forum yesterday.
Anne Wortham is the epitome of what so many of us whites fought for in the 60’s … believing all blacks deserve equal rights. Counter to the equal rights movement emerged the likes of Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and now Barack Obama who all realistically want blacks to remain enslaved by being “cared for” by another ‘massa’ this time called the government (government slave masters).

Bravo Anne!

No He Can’t
by Anne Wortham

Fellow Americans,

Please know: I am black; I grew up in the segregated South. I did not vote for Barack Obama; I wrote in Ron Paul’s name as my choice for president. Most importantly, I am not race conscious. I do not require a black
president to know that I am a person of worth, and that life is worth living. I do not require a black president to love the ideal of America .

I cannot join you in your celebration. I feel no elation. There is no smile on my face. I am not jumping with joy. There are no tears of triumph in my eyes. For such emotions and behavior to come from me, I would have to deny all that I know about the requirements of human flourishing and survival – all that I know about the history of the United States of America, all that I know about American race relations, and all that I know about Barack Obama as a politician. I would have to deny the nature of the “change” that Obama asserts has come to America .. Most importantly, I would have to abnegate my certain understanding that you have chosen to sprint down the road to serfdom that we have been on for over a century. I would have to pretend that individual liberty has no value for the success of a human life. I would have to evade your rejection of the slender reed of capitalism on
which your success and mine depend.

I would have to think it somehow rational that 94 percent of the 12 million blacks in this country voted for a man because he looks like them (that blacks are permitted to play the race card), and that they were joined by
self-declared “progressive” whites who voted for him because he doesn’t look like them. I would have to be wipe my mind clean of all that I know about the kind of people who have advised and taught Barack Obama and will
fill posts in his administration E2 political intellectuals like my former colleagues at the Harvard University’s Kennedy School of Government.

I would have to believe that “fairness” is the equivalent of justice. I would have to believe that man who asks me to “go forward in a new spirit of service, in a new service of sacrifice” is speaking in my interest. I would
have to accept the premise of a man that economic prosperity comes from the “bottom up,” and who arrogantly believes that he can will it into existence by the use of government force.. I would have to admire a man who thinks the standard of living of the masses can be improved by destroying the most productive and the generators of wealth.

Finally, Americans, I would have to erase from my consciousness the scene of 125,000 screaming, crying, cheering people in Grant Park, Chicago irrationally chanting “Yes We Can!” Finally, I would have to wipe all memory of all the times I have heard politicians, pundits, journalists, editorialists, bloggers and intellectuals declare that capitalism is dead – and no one, including especially Alan Greenspan, objected to their assumption that the particular version of the anti-capitalistic mentality that they want to replace with their own version of anti-capitalism is anything remotely equivalent to capitalism.

So you have made history, Americans.. You and your children have elected a black man to the office of the president of the United States , the wounded giant of the world. The battle between John Wayne and Jane Fonda is over – and that Fonda won. Eugene McCarthy and George McGovern must be very happy men. Jimmie Carter, too. And the Kennedys have at last gotten their Kennedy look-a-like. The self-righteous welfare statists in the suburbs can feel warm moments of satisfaction for having elected a black person. So, toast yourselves: 60s countercultural radicals, 80s yuppies and 90s bourgeois bohemians. Toast yourselves, Black America . Shout your glee Harvard, Princeton , Yale, Duke, Stanford, and Berkeley.

You have elected not an individual who is qualified to be president, but a black man who, like the pragmatist Franklin Roosevelt, promises to – Do Something! You now have someone who has picked up the baton of Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society.

But you have also foolishly traded your freedom and mine – what little there is left – for the chance to feel good. There is nothing in me that can share your happy obliviousness.

“We hate you guys. Once you start issuing $1 trillion $2 trillion … we know the dollar is going to depreciate, so we hate you guys but there is nothing much we can do”.
Lou Ping, China Banking Regulatory Commission.

The one thing China CAN DO is say no to loaning us the money we need for this ‘porky pig stimulus package’.
Face it America this is NO STIMULUS … lets call a spade a spade. This has turned into a lunatic Democratic SPENDING SPREE fully condoned by Barack Obama.

What has Barack Obama turned in to … or has he simply been this all along?
What happened to the transparency? The time to check things out? The debate and coming to a bipartisan consensus?

I have heard the public say “oh … he has only been in office 3 weeks give him a chance”.
A CHANCE TO DO WHAT?
LEARN TO BE A LEADER?
TAKE CONTROL OF THE RENEGADE PARTY THAT IS FAST DESTROYING HIM?

Daily I sit here in disbelief.
I am dumbfounded that what is going on in our government is actually occurring.
It takes all of my strength to keep from bursting into tears of frustration over the new events we are daily facing.

The television draws me like a magnet to what one feels by being drawn to a horrible accident where you are helpless to do anything but watch. It takes every ounce of my strength to muster the will to read, research and pound these blog posts out. I remind myself moment to moment the worth of any of this is to show others they are not alone. If there is one sound in the night there will at least be one.

A friend said the other day … I looked at your blog to see if there were other posts but yours. In digging to understand that statement the outcome was there were 3 of us out of the registered 7 … which apparently were not enough to join in. After thinking seriously about this I determined that was fine. If there is just ONE interested person out of the average 130 per day (average this month so far) visitors who gets one tiny thing? … mission accomplished.

I am not a formally educated woman. I do not have a degree in anything but perhaps hard knocks. I am simply and average citizen just like all of you. We at least should be smart enough to see the trillions that are so UNTHINKINGLY plucked from thin air are NOT going to solve the problems we in America face much less the crisis now to be made worse by the renegade spending spree foisted on us all.

First and foremost the financial crisis we face IS NOT THE PROBLEM.
The true problem is the lack of ethics and moral fiber of those who we put in charge of running this nation.

I did not vote for Obama.
I did however hope he would come through with what he said he would. Not only am I sorely disappointed I see the demeanor of those who honestly HOPED, TRUSTED AND EXPECTED this man to be EXACTLY what he said he was. What is going to happen when those trusting people realize that no matter what this man says HE CAN NOT PRODUCE THOSE PROMISES and HE IS NOT the person with the metal he claimed have or be?

This very morning I was discussing this with my cousin (who on most core issues is like minded).
It is natural for people to survive better if they understand and prepare for something.
Today the people of this UNITED STATES are heading for a train wreck.
It might not happen tomorrow afternoon BUT IT WILL HAPPEN.
Almost everyone in the MSM is willing to either soft peddle or is ignorant to the gravity of the subject period.

Who is going to fair best when the brick wall is met?
Those prepared for the worst and hope for a miracle that keeps the worst at bay … or those who did/could not see what was coming their way?

I saw Glenn Beck discuss with Bill O’Reilly the D & R of our future.
His interpretation was not Democrat and Republican but Depression and Revolution.
THIS IS NOT 1930.
The people are different. We still have slavery. There are great numbers who are slaves to the government taking care of them on some level. This time the slaves are multi-colored NOT JUST BLACK.

The irony of Barack Obama being the first black president is HE A HALF BLACK MAN is perpetuating that slavery. He is just as guilty as his historical kinsmen who rounded up their own people and sold them to the white land owners in America.
Instead of SLAVERY it is now GOVERNMENT NANNY.
THE RESULT IS THE SAME NO MATTER WHAT THE NAME MIGHT BE.
SLAVES NONE THE LESS!

WHAT A CRYING PITY!

Barack Obama WAS HANDED on a SILVER PLATTER every TOOL NECESSARY to emerge THE NOTED HERO OF THIS CENTURY.
To date he has miserably blown that opportunity.
Why? He is heavily influenced by a ‘tiny man’ Rahm Emanuel (Obama’s right hand man) and a ‘witless’ female speaker of the house Nancy Pelosi.

In the computer hardware world the best equipment only functions at the level of the lesser equipment. Today that is the case with Obama and his staff. If he were the best of the best … that best is lessened and degraded by those who are less around him. Unfortunate he either does not understand that or does not have the guts to correct it.

What happened to what I perceived to be an honest, well spoken, man of high ideals?
Just who is pulling the strings behind the scenes in our white house today?
Barack Obama’s own party are/will destroy that divinely given opportunity for greatness.

Again I say WHAT A CRYING PITY!

“You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.”

~~ The late Dr. Adrian Rogers

Clearly the ‘Washington Wingnuts’ have forgot just who pays their over inflated salaries.

I just emailed a friend that daily when I boot my laptop I feel like a deer hunter with a stampeding herd of bucks headed my way and do not know which I need for dinner. The government has more crap going on than the proverbial Christmas Goose.

Chuck Schumer on the Senate floor Tuesday was quick to malign the public for burning the telephone wires to a frazzle over the PORK FILLED bill trudging to completion so it can serve as the next “OBAMA PHOTO OP” for the slobbering masses. While the ‘midget minded’ San Fran Nan insists there are NO ‘pet projects or ear marks’. I am not sure who is the parrot Obama or Pelosi on this issue. It does not matter except clearly both think the population is below stupid to believe either one of them.

We the people are now relegated to the ‘chattering class’ which sort of reminds me of the comment ‘let them eat cake’ uttered by Marie-Antoinette before she was marched to the guillotine.

Daily it is more clear this renegade government feels they are comfortable thieves in charge.
This tiny trillion? What can they be thinking. How about a resounding THEY ARE NOT. I suppose the next thing that comes to mind is do they have the capability to put more than one THINKING word together in order to form a sentence. PROBABLY NOT!

Obama asks “what’s wrong with replacing the government fleet of cars with new green ones”?
Gee how about the GOVERNMENT IS BROKE? Or fine fund it out of your OWN POCKET … in fact pass the collection plate starting with Pelosi, Reid, Dodd, Frank and anyone else thinking this is a stunningly great idea? Maybe ask Geitner and Daschel to kick in the penalties they both WERE NOT REQUIRED OR FAILED to pay on their little tax frauds?

Let’s see what we still have:

$300 million for new “green” golf carts for government workers … now that is certainly a must have while the private sector scrambles for their next scrambled egg for the family.

The Los Angeles-to-Las Vegas magnetic levitation train … Harry Reid’s PET PROJECT … is defined as what now? Oh I get it an emergency solution to the problem at hand … you know the loss of jobs, homes and food?

$1 billion was added back for Prevention & Wellness Programs, including STD education.

Is it becoming evident here these politicians are tossing around BILLIONS OF OUR MONEY as if it were nothing.

I say today and will continue to say. WE THE PEOPLE need to apply some BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION here.
INSIST those who think up this PORK fund it themselves out of their very own pockets starting with OBAMA himself.

Take a look at this little snip from Chuck Schumer on the stimulus.

At what point did Schumer fall out of the loop? Is he simply deluded or somehow has he failed to notice the majority of people in the USA DO NOT WANT THIS PACKAGE!

A friend sent this my way and since daily there is so much graft and corruption in the world I thought this might be a nice break.

I am a little behind the times politically today and maybe that is a good thing. I did take the time to watch Barack Obama deliver his first press conference. I tried the best I could to listen as an ordinary citizen (of which I would normally claim to be). ONLY today I have made the effort to be a ‘better informed citizen’ spending hours reading the constitution, pouring through economy sites and many other reference sites to try and figure out what lies ahead of us as a people in the USA and the world.

First things first. Trying objectively to listen to what Obama had to say as a citizen I thought BRAVO! This is exactly what the average citizen wants to hear. It had hope, drive, determination and optimism to get HIS JOB DONE.

I am a fairly savvy internet woman. I know what drives the internet and must say SOMEONE taught Obama well. I do not for one moment think he picked this up on his own. He is an excellent speaker (providing he is well prepped) and has a calm demeanor of authority.

What I also noticed were the stress line in his face. It is easy to see he is NOT AT ALL HAPPY with the turn of events these last couple of weeks. He emphasized more than once he inherited this problem which is true. However insinuating the Republicans (or opposition) is at fault is blatantly false.

Anyone with over a gnats brain capacity understands the forcing of the banks to loan housing money to people not qualified was the first domino pushed over in this current crisis. Who is to blame there? I would say just about everyone on both sides of the isle.

I can easily see how the average Joe who is busy fighting for the next house payment, dinner on the table for his 2 kids, wife, dog and cat could easily be seduced into a false calm. YES THE GOVERNMENT is the only one who can fix this.

Once the dust settled and my ‘ordinary citizen’ mindset lifted and ‘logic, reality and common sense’ crept back in I found myself saying HOGWASH!

THIS CAN NOT WORK. It does not take rocket science. Are not these people smart enough to understand this?
The answers are these:
1. Yes they do.
2. No they don’t
3. They do not care.

All of those answers make everyone supporting this particular bill a governmental FLOP.

None of those bode well for the USA citizen … NONE of us.

This is the bottom line.
I have always considered myself a share the wealth spender … meaning I kept my money churning … buy, buy, buy … whatever, whenever, wherever. Need it or not. I AM NOT RICH … probably as average as anyone. My husband says I am witless where money is concerned. From his perspective (the very conservative investor) he is absolutely right.

I want to scream at Obama … don’t you get it you half-wit? (I know name calling is not very nice but it is what I feel)
I as a citizen who is very free to spend … I REFUSE TO SPEND ONE DIME on anything but a necessity for now.
I DO NOT TRUST YOU!
I DO NOT TRUST THE BANKS!
I CERTAINLY DO NOT TRUST THE STOCK MARKET!

Now maybe it would be wise to understand that one grandmother may not be a bother to you and your stimulus want/need … but there are millions of us out here who think JUST LIKE ME.

I trust one thing … ME … MY ABILITY TO SURVIVE IN SPITE OF YOU!
I only hope there are enough of ME’s out there to withstand, kick, scream and stop you in orchestrating our destruction.

The biggest obstacle we (like me) face is the disbelief and denial that any of this could happen here in the USA.
Wake up folks … you are seeing this (up close and personal) for the first time on this level in our history.
If “we the people” do not quell this socialistic take over then none of us have anyone to blame but ourselves.

Here is what you face.
THERE ARE NOT going to be CREATED EVEN 500,000 jobs in the next few months. Instead you will see MORE SOUND SOLID business fail. What is passed so far WILL NOT create jobs immediately. We are no longer a nation creating much of anything. We are at the mercy of China, Mexico and any number of other countries for a good part of our food.
What is going to happen when those shortages begin to happen?
You think it can not happen here to us in the USA?
Well think again!

My brother said something interesting the other day.
“People think I am crazy for preparing for the worst … I tell them I would rather be prepared and nothing happen than have it happen and be stuck.”

Have you all considered maybe the WORST never visits those prepared?

The worst of what is happening here is NOT how indebted our children and grandchildren are going to be when this is all over.

THE WORST IS OUR GOVERNMENT IS RUNNING RENEGADE AGAINST 67% WILL OF THE PEOPLE AND NO ONE IN THE GOVERNMENT IS PAYING CARES.

Recently with the fourth bail out remember stimulus checks, $300 billion for housing, $700 billion for banks, of 900 billion or whatever it was Obama and his talking heads have been saying credible economist support the bail out course of action. To quote Mr. Obama “economists from across the political spectrum agree” on the need for massive government spending to stimulate the economy.

Nothing could be further from the truth. What Mr. Obama should have said was “economists on the government and democratic party payroll overwhelmingly support my redistribution of wealth and the march towards a combination of fascism and socialism as practiced by Hitler in the 1930’s.” I don’t know what schools these supposed economist went to but it wasn’t the University of Central Florida. Every economist I have read of recent times supports free trade and free markets.

There are some notable exceptions like fascist Paul Krugman of the New York Times, 2008 Nobel Prize recipient who supports government edicts from above telling industry what and how to produce things. Similar to the former USSR and their infamous five year economic plans. Yea Paul those five year plans were a smashing success weren’t they? Last time I checked Paul the USSR was out of business permanently. Environmental economists support socialism, fascism and communism because they know it retards and stunts economic growth and reduces man’s influence over the environment. It also has the added benefit of enslaving the human population to certain geographical areas so the animals of the world will not be intruded upon by humans. And as any economist will tell you retarded economic growth means fewer babies born. Well with the exception of Africa and other tribal regions of the world where indoor plumbing is a luxury. But with the exception of Krugman and people against humans pretty much all economist support liberty and freedom.

Now thanks to the CATO Institute we have full page ads in paper all around the country protesting Obama’s bail out plan and the march towards fascist socialism practiced by Hitler. People forget Hitler was a socialist first and a fascist second. Hitler realized that he needed private industry to carry out his plans of world domination. Private industry realized they could get very rich currying favor with the mad man. Mercedes Benz was the most famous benefactor of this relationship but there were many others making millions off the spoils of the dictator. So who do we see in the white house these days? None other than Jeffery Immelt current CEO of General electric. The genius that has seen his stock drop 68% under his tenure and kept his shop opened to Iran while that country was killing US servicemen. The first fascist to step forward into our new age of darkness. And how appropriate he actually helped the terrorist in killing US servicemen. Mr. Obama must be quite impressed with his dedication and service towards destroying America. If you can stand the stink GE stock would be a pretty good buy these days. Just don’t hold it to long. Eventually Mercedes stock toke a nose dive along with the Third Reich.

Thank you CATO you have been my hero for many years, with the exception of foreign policy of course.

Below is a list of economist who publicly disagree with Obama and his economic policies.

“There is no disagreement that we need action by our government, a recovery plan that will jumpstart the economy” President Obama 1/9/09.

With all due respect Mr. President, that is not true. There is no disagreement that we need action by our government, a recovery plan that will help to jump start the economy.

Notwithstanding reports that all economists are now Keynesian’s and that we all support a big increase in the burden of government, we the undersigned do not believe that more government spending is a way to improve economic performance.

More government spending by Hoover and Roosevelt did not pull the United States economy out of the Great Depression in the 1930s. More government spending did not solve Japan’s “lost decade” in the 1990s. As such, it is a triumph of hope over experience to believe that more government spending will help the U.S. today. To improve the economy, policy makers should focus on reforms that remove impediments to work, saving, investment and production. Lower tax rates and a reduction in the burden of government are the best ways of using fiscal policy to boost growth.

In these days of havoc it is nice to understand good things still happen on a large scale. I want to address the crash of U.S Airways Flight 1549.

Stop and think of all that happened that day.
We come from different walks of life with different spiritual backgrounds or none at all. This incident has the making of extraordinary luck or a today’s miracle.
What are the odds of this flight having this pilot with his background to manage this particular incident.
Certainly what occurred was luck at its best if that was indeed the case. To me the circumstance and timing are far to critical for this to simply be good luck.

Each of you reading this story will have to judge for yourself. It is only in the time of severe crisis the most hardened atheist or agnostic will most certainly be praying for help. I am reminded by my cousin that ANY TIME WE ASK for HELP on anything in life … on some level we are admitting there is a power bigger than ourself alone. Those intent on believing there is nothing past the here and now might want to contemplate that simple thought.

Enjoy this story and the extraordinary people involved in it … it is inspirational and worthy of thinking about.

Voice before set down:

From the time the plane set down in the Hudson it took 4 minutes for the first rescue boat to reach the downed airplanes side.
At 5 minutes the 2nd boat reached the airplane and 6 minutes for the 3rd boat.
All of this is synchronicity at its finest.

Part 1 of Katie Couric’s 60 minutes interview of U.S Airways Flight 1549 pilot Chesley B. Sullenberger III.

Part 2

Part 3

Part 4

This story crossed my desk a few days ago.

As I did further research the ultimate injustice of it breaks my heart. I found myself sitting in front of my computer screen weeping. This behavior is not something I do often.

If anyone deserved the Nobel Peace Prize this woman did the fact she did not have that honor bestowed upon her so fits into how the world functions today … I could not help sharing my thoughts with those of you who visit this blog.

Daily we are faced with the open lack of ethics and moral behavior in our government.
THE WORLD has lost its way along with our own government.
It might be the chicken and egg theory.

Her story Irena Sendlerowa 1910-2008

There recently was a death of a 98 year old lady named Irena.

During WWII, Irena, got permission to work in the Warsaw Ghetto, as a Health specialist.

She had an ulterior motive…

She KNEW what the Nazi’s plans were for the Jews, (being German).

Irena smuggled infants out of the ghetto in the bottom of her tool box that she carried, she also carried in the back of her truck a Burlap sack, (for larger kids).

She also had a dog in the back, that she trained to bark when the Nazi soldiers let her in, and out of the ghetto.

The soldiers of course wanted nothing to do with the dog, and the barking covered the kids/infants noises.

During her time and course of doing this, she managed to smuggle out and save 2500 kids/infants.

She was caught, and the Nazi’s broke both her legs, and arms, and beat her severely. She was sentanced to death. The polish underground bribed guards to release her and she went underground until after the war ended.

Irina kept a record of the names of all the kids she smuggled out, and kept them in a glass jar, buried under an apple tree in the yard.

After the war, she tried to locate any parents that may have survived it, and reunited the family. Most of course had been gassed.

Those kids she helped got placed into foster family homes, or adopted.

In 2007 Irena was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.

She LOST and Al Gore won instead, for a slide show on Global Warming.

My thoughts:

Irena Sendler was a woman of great courage, love and sacrifice. In the worst of times she risked her LIFE for others. Because of her … 2,500 human beings were given a second chance at life. Who knows how that paying forward of 2,500 children has further advanced our world today.

Irena is gone, she and her deeds will not be forgotten in the annals of history. She has a spirit and light that lives on in the hearts of some men and women still in the world.
That is deserving of the Nobel Peace Prize.
Irena is the true winner … the world is a winner because of her time on earth.

On the other hand we have the prize winner Al Gore.
He has done what for this united states and HUMANITY?
ZERO, NADA, NOTHING!
His personal mission in life is fame, fortune and money.
NONE of those does he deserve … however he has achieved them anyway.

His so called achievements:

• He was vice president to Bill Clinton (this was not out of the goodness of his heart he was paid excedeenly well)
• He wrote a book (anyone today can do that and be paid well)
• He starred in a 2006 documentary. (wow that was really important … and paid well)
• Won a grammy for his audio book on the documentary. (big deal? … NOT BIG ENOUGH FOR THE NOBLE PRIZE … SORRY!)
• 24 year politition (over paid service to the country … still no big deal)

To boil it down … what has Al Gore done to sacrifice himself to anyone other than himself?
ZERO, NADA, NOTHING!
What true impact has Al Gore himself made on/for humanity?
Same answer ZERO, NADA, NOTHING!

More video about Irena:

Chris Dodd was born in Willimantic, Connecticut. His parents were Grace Mary Dodd (née Murphy) and U.S. Senator Thomas Joseph Dodd. Dodd is a Roman Catholic. He is the fifth of six children.

Dodd attended Georgetown Preparatory School, a Jesuit boys’ school in Bethesda, Maryland. He graduated with a bachelor’s degree in English literature from Providence College in 1966. He served as a Peace Corps volunteer in a small rural town in the Dominican Republic from 1966 to 1968. While there, he became fluent in Spanish. Dodd then joined the United States Army Reserve, serving until 1975.

In 1972, Dodd earned a Juris Doctor at the University of Louisville, where he served as vice magistrate of the law school’s student body. The following year, he was admitted to the Connecticut bar, and began practicing law in New London.

Mr. Dodd’s father Thomas during his time in the US Senate sponsored and wrote the 1968 Gun Control Act. It is believed that much of the language of the 1968 legislation was translated from gun control laws in Germany during the NAZI reign. Thomas Dodd served in Germany for the Nuremberg Trials as a prosecutor and is believed to have brought home the NAZI gun laws at that time. In 1967 he was censured in the US Senate for using campaign funds for personal expenses.

Chris Dodd today is under a cloud of controversy for taking out a VIP loans with Countrywide. The loans gave Mr. Dodd a $75,000 break that normal loan recipients would not qualify for. When asked about this Mr. Dodd responded that he didn’t read the loan and was assured the average citizen would get the same treatment. Pretty strange for the Chairman of the United States Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs. This committee had direct oversight of Countrywide.

Mr. Dodd was a cheerleader for the practices of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. He received $133,900 in campaign contributions from the two quasi government agencies. Mr. Dodd is on record for years ignoring the pleas of Republicans and former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan to increase regulation of the firms. Both corporations are insolvent today.

Listening to an interview with Mr. Dodd is like listening to the latest Democratic talking points. When pressed by reporters Mr. Dodd tends to be belligerent and abrupt. One reporter was fired after questioning Dodd about his loans from Countrywide. A real believer in censorship of the press.

Good news it looks like Dodd will be leaving the Senate. And he even suggested Barney Frank leave the House of Representatives. Certainly Mr. Dodd’s best interview of his life.

As reported in the Stoos Views Dodd mused:

“You know, I got to thinking…after presiding over the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac disasters--which cost the taxpayers billions and happened on my watch; after taking $133,900 in donations from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac at the same time I was supposed to be monitoring them, what kind of hypocritical, incompetent SOB would I be if I did not resign myself? After all, I am largely responsible for the current financial debacle facing this country. Therefore, to be morally consistent, I have, this day, called for my resignation as Chairman of the Senate Banking Committee. I expect to hear from myself by the end of the day, as to whether to submit and accept my resignation. As I told the Chairman of GM: It is time for new leadership.”

Dodd continued: “And to be perfectly consistent, my friend and partner in incompetence, Barney Frank, ranking Democrat on the House Financial Services Committee must likewise move on. After all, he told us that ‘these two entities, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, were not facing any kind of financial crisis.’ He received tens of thousands of dollars from these organizations too. Like me, he failed to monitor these institutions and was woefully incompetent as well.”

Dodd went on to say that he will soon propose the creation of another bloated, expensive, and inept federal bureaucracy--“The Car Czar”--to oversee the billions of dollars that he and Frank intend to give the Big Three auto makers and to do that which Congress was hired to do--monitor the expenditure of public monies. “What’s a few billion more,” Dodd remarked, “we can print as much money as we want!” Dodd concluded that he also favors the creation of a second new federal bureaucracy, designed to oversee Members of Congress--“The Hypocrisy Czar.”

Barney Frank could not be reached for comment. Adios Senator Dodd. You failed to protect your country and like your father left in a cloud of corruption. Please don’t encourage additional family members to participate in government service.

Frank was born to a Jewish family in Bayonne, New Jersey and was educated at Harvard College graduating in 1962. He taught undergraduates at Harvard while studying for a Ph.D., but left before completing the degree in 1968. He became Boston’s mayors Chief Assistant, a position he held for three years. He then served for a year as Administrative Assistant to Congressman Michael J. Harrington. In 1979, Frank became a member of the Massachusetts Bar. In 1980 Frank was elected to congress. In 1987 Frank came out of the closet and announced he was gay. The record shows Frank has endorsed and represented gay, prostitution and pornography rights since 1973 when he was a member of the Massachusetts House of Representatives.

From the 70’s the Frank record shows he has felt very strongly about human services and that overshadows other issues such as personal responsibility and fiscal responsibility. Translation tax and spend.

Frank has verbally abused his political opponents since the 70’s. His verbal abuse was so renowned in the Massachusetts state government his opponents and party leaders shied away from criticizing him for fear of getting into a “pissing contest.” Anyone who has listen to him speak knows he can make Mother Teresa seem like a whoring scoundrel with his verbal eloquence and rapid fire sparing. Bill O’Reilly is the only person who has put this ethnocentric hedonist in his place.

He has served on the House or Representative Financial Services Committee for years and became the Democratic ranking member in 2003. In 2007 he became chairman of the committee that has oversight over Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

Frank used his position and wealth and power to live out his hedonist desires. He hired prostitute Steve Gobie for $80 to perform sex acts for him as was so pleased he hired Steve as the house boy in 1985. Mr. Gobie promptly took advantage of his position and ran a prostitution ring out of the Frank household for two years. Mr. Gobie was relieved of his duties in 1987. Frank was reprimanded three years later in 1990.

After the reprimand Frank moved up in stature on the Financial Services Committee and in his choice of lovers. Frank was able once again to use his position of power for his hedonist lifestyle when in 1991 he snagged Herb Moses, Assistant Director for Product Initiatives for Fannie Mae as his lover till 1998. Moses was responsible for developing many of Fannie Mae’s affordable housing and home improvement lending programs. The same programs that lead directly to the current financial melt down. The same Fannie Mae Mr. Frank has direct oversight of as a member of the Financial Services Committee.

This relationship was known to the Washington press but was never exposed. Probably for a couple of reasons. The first was the lovers were homosexual. Second the person involved was a democrat. A clear conflict of interest. A clear abuse of power for sexual favors. And not a word from the Ministry of Information sometimes referred to as the mainstream media. As of today no reprimand has been handed down to Mr. Frank for this improper relationship. One wonders how the press would react to a Republican congressman who abused his power by even sending e-mails about homosexual sex. Oh wait that was Mark Foley who was forced to resign.

Mr. Frank exhibits the bulling tactics and self centered behavior so common among the freaks in Washington now in control. It’s all about them and the “people.” Mr. Frank is in the protected class of citizen and is entitled to equal but more equal treatment by the media and his fellow congressmen and women. The more equal treatment applies to gays. Lesbians, blacks, some Hispanic groups, women’s rights groups, basically anyone but white males and the Sarah Palin’s of the world. The New Gestapo has formed with these groups and now they have power. They will persecute and destroy those not in their protected categories. This destruction will occur in the form of taxation and censorship. More severe Hitler persecution will follow if there is no revolt from the peasant class of citizens. They are watching for signs of revolt among the powerless masses.

Mr. Frank is a fan of John Maynard Keynes the Roosevelt economics in the 1930’s and 40’s. Mr. Keynes is the classic demand side economists, who espouses “priming the pump” or spend, spend, spend government policies so much loved and favored by fascist regimes the world over. The same economics Hitler used. The same economics FDR used at the zenith of democratic control of our government. Basically the game plan is starve everyone and get them to fight over government hand outs like medical care and food. Do that and you control the world. The countries wealth and citizens are controlled and dependent on the imperial government for survival.

Mr. Frank’s main role in the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac debacle was to support the Community Reinvestment Act and goals. This is a common theme in his political career. Public spending and social justice.with no thought for the taxpayers or fiscal responsibility. The same attitude Governor Dukakis encountered from Frank early in his political career.

Mr. Frank teamed up with the Congressional Black Caucus and other democrats to block all efforts for additional oversight of the quasi government agencies. The Republicans attempted in 2003, 2005 and 2006 to place additional constraints in the agencies but were blocked by democrats who threatened filibusters and hurled charges of intolerant attitudes towards the “less fortunate” by Republicans. Republicans lack the political courage to overcome these objections and the buffoon republican president bragged on several occasions minority home ownership was at all time highs.

Mr. Frank rationalizes and minimizes his role in the catastrophe that has decimated markets the world over and could possibly lead to civil and world wars like the last depression in the 1930’s did. He states “the government did not force banks to lend money to high-risk people, but rather to poorer neighborhoods. The Community Reinvestment Act [CRA-1977 and revised in 1996] is the legislation in question. The act only applies to banks. The loans that caused the trouble were on a whole not made by banks. They were made by mortgage finance companies. … Over the course of the last 30 years, new entities rose up. Mortgage finance companies and others were unregulated, and they made loans. If only entities covered by the CRA made loans, we would not have the subprime problem.”

A total fictionalization of what has happened. This whole financial crisis started with the mortgage meltdown. Bill Clinton pushed for more home ownership which historically has been 62% to 64%. Under the leadership of Mr. Frank, Senator Dodd of Connecticut and the Congressional Black Caucus which include virulently strong backers of the irresponsible practices of Freddie and Fannie. Maxine Waters, Gregory Meeks, John Conyers and Barrack Obama all vigorously backed the foolish lending practices of these institutions. Home ownership rose to unprecedented levels of 68% to 70%.

The total outstanding balance for all US mortgages that have been incorporated into mortgage-backed securities is $6.6 trillion. These outstanding balances account for 59% of all money that Americans owe on home mortgages, $11.2 trillion. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac processed $4.6 trillion of the $6.6 trillion. Contrary to Mr. Frank’s justification Countrywide and other mortgage lenders were enabled to make these bad loans with the encouragement and financial backing of Freddie and Fannie. If Countrywide would have been unable to package and sell these loads with the help of Fannie and Freddie they would not have been so reckless in their behavior.

Doing the math shows Mr. Frank and his Financial Services Committee had direct oversight for 41% of the mortgages in the United States. With friends like these who need enemies? Does government do anything right? Anyone want to take a guess as to how many of the private mortgages are in default compared to the quasi public loans? My guess is less than 1/10 of 1% for the totally private verses 10% for the quasi public backed loans. The private sector does just fine with no regulation. Only when the government and quasi government institutions like Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac interfering in the marketplace do we see huge financial melt downs.

When Fannie and Freddie packaged these loans together and sold them to financial institutions throughout the world this insipid virus spread. Not only is the United States infected with these toxic assets the rest of the baking systems throughout the world hold these worthless assets.

Barney Frank, Chris Dodd and the Congressional Black Caucus lead the United States and the rest of the world to the brink of financial collapse and dissolution into chaos and possible world conflict. All because of an overestimation of ones importance to the “people” and selfish pursuits of self satisfaction. Would Mr. Frank have been such a cheerleader for Fannie and Freddie if his judgment wasn’t so clouded by his love affair and corruption of his stature by Herb Moses? We will never know.

What we do know is Mr. Frank’s judgment and position WAS compromised. The press knew of his relationships and choose not to report it. Mr. Frank has throughout his career been an idealist champion of the “people” and has pursued government spending with little or no restraint on spending or oversight of that spending. He has for decades verbally bullied his political opponents and colleagues. Get money from the working stiffs and spend it as he sees fit. Like a kid in school stealing other kids’ lunch money so he can throw a party for his buddies after school. No difference. Just the magnitude of his behavior and his position will now cause billions to suffer financially and possibly end up in conflicts as nations struggle to survive in the coming years.

Nancy was born into privilege to US Congressman Thomas D’Alesandro, Jr. from Maryland. She attended a private all girls’ catholic school as befitting one of advantage. The fortunate young Italian princess then attended and graduated the private Trinity Washington University in Washington, D.C. The princess met Paul Frank Pelosi while attending a class at Georgetown—no doubt a planed encounter for the soon-to-be independent young lady. She married in 1963 and had five children. Her husband acquired a fortune befitting the princess of some 20 million or so.

The Pelosi family owns a $25 million Northern California vineyard (non union), along with the Auberge du Soleil hotel in Rutherford, California (non union). The Pelosi’s are also partners in a restaurant chain called Piatti, which has 900 employees (non-union). One of her largest investments is a private partnership called Lions Gate Limited, which operates the CordeValle Golf Club and Resort in San Martin, Calif. To get a permit to build the facility, the partners promised to build a “public course” providing considerable access to non-members, and to abide by several environmental requirements to ensure that there would be minimal ecological damage. After the facility opened, the county’s Planning Commission found that the golf course was in fact private — and the club had “ignored” many of its permit requirements concerning the environment. Good reflection of her character.

Is any of this surprising? Get real. Liberals feel entitled. They are better looking, smarter and deserve all the riches they get. Has Nancy, like most liberal elites, ever worked a day in her life? Does changing diapers back in 1964 count? She, like most liberals, are bullies. Her development, CordeValle Golf Club, could have public hours and fees. Her resort could have low-income housing mixed with the super rich houses. She does none of this, showing little compassion. Like most bullies, she uses her position of power to exploit the weak and defenseless while bragging to the world what a great person she is. It’s all about her.

Mrs. Pelosi won a special election in April, 1987 and went to “work” for her constituents. She supported Presidio National Park on the shores of the Golden Gate pork project, bet tamales that the 49ers would win a football game. After all, she’s one of the folks. She fought for Arts funding, increased AID’s research—the common theme being spend, spend, and spend.

Pelosi never gave a second thought to the working people at her companies who would have to pay for the government waste and abuse. It was all about looking good and being the peoples champion—never a thought about being a hero to her thousands of workers who may have needed union benefits and health care.

The Italian princess was surely the most popular and beautiful mother of five ever to grace the halls of Washington—and then John McCain nominated Sarah Palin for vice president. Mirror, mirror, on the wall who is the fairest mother of five of them all? Sarah Palin. Being the bully she is, along with her privileged liberal comrades, she and the rest of the Gestapo went on a scorched earth policy against Palin. Troppergate, Palin’s stupid, her kid’s pregnant, she kills animals—the usual garbage a bully throws at the average kid to get them out of the spotlight and the attention focused back on the bully.

Looking at it as a kid from the ghetto, I see this rich lady with a silver spoon in her mouth for what she is: a gluttonous pig. Her whole life has been dedicated to increasing her wealth and status at the expense of others. Has she ever worked a day in her life? She is one of the beautiful people who walks into a room and expects the rest of us to fawn over her. We should all open our wallets, get on our knees and be thankful we are blessed by one so beautiful and enlightened.

What do I think? She’s a stuck up &!^@% who doesn’t have a clue about what’s it’s like to be taxed to death trying to support a family. Her daughter is uglier and stupider than she is and embarrasses the family on network television every now and then with her idiot conspiracy theory crap. Nancy turned her back on the Catholic Church, the same church that gave her education by supporting abortion. She should be excommunicated from the church. Her economics is like listening to a broken record: spend, spend, spend. Congress was convenient for her because she was rich and an empty nest mother. She lacks the education and intelligence to really understand complex issues. Compare Mitt Romney talking about the automotive bail out next to this ditz.

To sum it up, she’s an empty nest Italian rich ditz spoiled brat that thinks it’s all about her. She has no business being Speaker of the House as she so amply displayed in her bail out speech.

Do the working man a favor Nancy, resign.

John Andrew Boehner is currently serving as the House Minority Leader in the 111th Congress and a U.S. Representative from Ohio’s 8th congressional district, which includes portions of the Cincinnati and Dayton suburbs, as well as a small portion of Dayton itself .

Boehner is an honorable man unlike the traitor Dianne Feinstein who made millions from her husband’s Chinese business dealings and most likely selling state secrets to China in return for favorable treatment for her husband.

He is honorable compared to Obama whose only goal is to weaken and humiliate the United States as was so promptly demonstrated this week when he ordered prosecution of Cole mastermind terrorist suspect Al-Nashiri to be stopped. No Boehner is not a traitor like “Shoeless” Joe Jackson who sold the 1919 World Series out to gamblers. Nor is he as hideous as our goofy communist educated president.

No the problem with Boehner and all Republicans in leadership roles is they are simply losers who do not have any fighting spirit or the will to win. The public needs to take a good long look at the Republican Party and ask themselves if they really want these guys and gals representing them. Pretty much the same way a manager looks at a former star Hall of Fame pitcher who at the end of his career keeps giving up home runs every inning. It pains the manager to pull the plug on his once magnificent pitcher but eventually it has to be done. For the good of the team the manager needs to tell and eventually cut the player from the team.

That’s pretty much where clear thinking Americans are at with the Republican Party. They are simply losers who can no longer deliver. As long as we put them into the game almost assuredly we will lose. Time for a change.

With all due respect to Boehner other candidates who have sold out America to the socialist, communist and fascist could just as easily been chosen. Trent Lott, Mitch McConnell, Bill Frist, Bob Dole, Howard Baker, Hugh Scott and finally the GOP leader that killed the party George W. Bush. The one exception to this list in recent memory is Newt Gingrich who delivered on his promises and won legislative battles with the leftist. The Republican Party and leadership no longer have any killer instinct or anyone willing to sacrifice for the team. Essential ingredients if you want to win.

Let’s be clear what is at stake. We have had a takeover of our government by communist, socialist and fascist. They are negotiating with companies like General Electric in the best tradition of Hitler and Mercedes Benz to combine socialist and fascist principles. We have seen this story before. It leads to less freedom, lower living standards, war and the ultimate destruction of the nation. Is there anything else? Can I make this any clearer? If Republicans can’t get fired up for this then please exit stage left and let people who will fight for the people take center stage.

The Republican leadership and party are like the once great Yankee team of the early 60’s. Five pennants, 2 World Series, 505 regular season wins, 62% win percentage, all glory and honors. And now they wake up and it’s 1967. 20 games out of first place. Three consecutive losing seasons. That sterling 62% win percentage has gone down to a miserable 45% and last place is becoming a very common occurrence. The roster is filled up with once great players who are washed up. Whitey Ford, Elston Howard and the all time great Mickey Mantle. The desire to win is gone. Only the memories remain. And the day of reckoning has come. As the players and team end the miserable season everyone knows what needs to happen but no one will say anything. It’s over.

So what now? The Republicans who truly support the taxpayers and people should quit the party and switch their party affiliation to Libertarian. That simple. Walk out on the party that along with McCain and Boehner abandoned them in 2008 with massive bail outs that were doomed to failure just as FDR’s and Herbert Hoovers bail outs were doomed to failure. Simply walk down to that court house and change your party affiliation to Libertarian and be done with it. Some of you will lose reelection. Life goes on. Some will not and a party that can stand up to the fascist, socialist and communist will eventually replace the party of the past. The sooner the better.

Economics is not as complex as people make it out to be. We all know tax cuts are evenly distributed with no preference to special interest groups. Cut corporate taxes to 0% and watch the economy boom. Cut capital gains taxes to 0% and watch the economy boom. It’s no secret. We know what works and what doesn’t. All the bail out minutia is cover for a power elite power grab. Nothing more, nothing less. A power grab no different than Hitler or Stalin did.

A bail out is taking money from workers and delivering it to special interest groups. Are some projects worthwhile? Of course they are but do you want to spend $100 on a restaurant meal with a plate full of garbage and one item you like? Spending $10 on the item you like seems a whole lot cheaper and more sensible. Well now we have the whole plate and it will be shoved down our throats for years to come.

We the workers of America need a party that will represent us. We don’t need a union. We like working and having our employers make a profit. We don’t mind being screwed once in a while because we screw our employer once in awhile (at least the smart workers do shhhh). Any union idiot that thinks non union workers don’t get even with employers is living in the 1930’s. I will not give away my secrets on this web site for obvious reasons. Capitalism allows me and millions of workers to get what we want out of our employment. We don’t want government interfering in that relationship. What we want is for the federal government to get out of the way.

When I say this images of Ronald Reagan come to mind. He did cut taxes but he was no friend of workers. He raised social security taxes when he could have let the system go broke forcing privatization. Reagan increased spending faster than revenues came into Washington. No I never want to see Ronald Reagan again. Ronald Reagan was all talk and no action. If he stuck to what he said in his speeches he would have done well with the working man.

Bush increased spending 55% at the federal level. He did change the dynamic of terrorism and cut taxes but capitulated to the sky is falling idiot Secretary of the Treasury Paulson and his stupid bail out mentality. All Bush should have done in 2008 was veto everything that came in front of him and this “crisis” would be 70% played out. Because of his utter stupidity when it comes to economics we are looking at short periods of recovery followed by inflation then stagnation for the foreseeable future. We get to relive the 1970’s thanks to the economic illiterate George W. Bush.

No clear thinking Republicans need to see this pattern of selling out the workers and taxpayers of America year after year. If the Republicans regain power in congress in 2010 will it be any different? Of course not. The Republicans don’t represent the people any more than Democrats do. Both are beholden to special interest groups looking for that quick buck.

Libertarians fundamentally understand that federal government is a rip off. Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare, Housing, Education and all federal programs need to be eliminated with the exception of the military and federal court system. Republicans do not see this and never will because they are Democrats whose friends are businessmen instead of lawyers and unions. Different clientèle and different spending priorities with the same result of ripping off the workers and taxpayers of America.

Libertarians also understand the destructive role the Federal Reserve plays in the economy. Economists have studied the Federal Reserve ever since there was a Federal Reserve. Half the time they get monetary policy right and half the time they don’t. Greenspan did pretty well up to about 2001 when George Bush came to power. Seems as though Mr. Greenspan didn’t like Bush much because a review of his moves during that time show him pretty much setting up the 2008 financial melt down. So why was he given the power in the first place?

Libertarians understand that the Federal Reserve should be in charge of increasing the monetary base 3% to 5% a year and nothing else. Print and protect the value of the dollar. Nothing else. No discount rates, no federal funds rates, no reserve requirement. Set the reserve requirement at 8% and get lost. One thing a lot of talking heads fail to see is the one common thread of all these banking disasters is the countries involved all have a central banking system similar to our Federal Reserve. Libertarians get it and few others do.

We the workers and taxpayers plead with the few decent Republicans to make that trip down to the court house and switch your affiliation to Libertarian. My ex Congressman Tom Feeney was one of these patriots. He was a Libertarian, one of the few brave ones to speak out against all the bail outs and rebate schemes, and he lost in 2008. Before he lost I pleaded with him to change party affiliation. Why go down smeared with the label of Republican? I wish he had changed his party affiliation but in the end he will be remembered as one of the losers of 2008 caught up in some trip scandal with Jack Abramoff. What a shame. Should have gone down flying a flag you believe in Tom.

The first “Republican” to make this trip down to the court house to change party affiliation to Libertarian should be none other than Ron Paul. Two time Libertarian candidate for president and one of the few sane voices on the bail outs and domestic policy in 2008. I totally disagree with Mr. Paul on foreign policy and so do many Libertarians but Libertarians are united on domestic policy. Libertarian have the killer instinct and fight to confront fascist, socialist and communist face to face and are not afraid to sacrifice for the good of the team.

We can defeat the Democrats but the Republicans need to retire and get off the field and let the new players have a chance to play. As long as we cling to past glories we are doomed to failure. Time to let the prospects have at it. The Tampa Rays have a team of prospects and an American League pennant hanging up at Tropicana Field. With 41% Republican representation in congress it’s time to let the fighters take over the battle.

Every day when I turn on the TV there is another jaw dropping story out of Washington. Why should any of us expect anything else? Daily it becomes increasingly clear that Barack Obama has the poorest judgment of any President to date.

I watched a speech by Obama today who clearly shows his frustration over the lack of cooperation for the feigned emergency stimulus package. Yes ‘we the people’ are suppose to be shaking in our boots because a bloated piece of junk is being resisted by the majority of Republicans. What can I say but thank heavens. “We the people” need to collect and donate to oust from office EVERY PERSON who votes for this piece of junk.

Obama DOES NOT GET IT … he is CLUE LESS. The public does not want this package. It is not emergency relief it is long term bankruptcy for our children and grandchildren.

None of this is rocket science. In fact it is not even more than 4th grade math. Dump this package and start over. People are losing jobs by the minute and with that the shelter over their heads. Frizby parks, money for abortions overseas and doggie trails is not helping in these critical areas.

To date a couple of “totally cheesy” pieces of pork have been dumped … hear my words IT IS NOT ENOUGH !

Does anyone but me notice Obama is being lead around by a nose ring like some prize bull?
The more than dense Nancy Pelosi (known as San Fran Nan by Ann Coulter) and her cohorts seem to be holding the rope.

Next comes Jeffery Immelt being appointed to an advisory money position. This guy has been in charge while the stock of GE has dropped like a rock in a pond. We can not forget he was trading arms to Iran. Should this guy be arrested for treason or what? What kind of advisor could he make.
What kind of decision making ability does this display for Obama?

Then we have Obama dismissing the charges of Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri the mastermind behind the Cole bombing.
My new catch phrase for the day is “are you frigging CRAZY?”. It is looking like he is … and that comment is fast on the way to being the only comment I use to define Obama.

What does all of this boil down to?
Plain and simple this bloat is creating bigger government by the second.
More government people to vote to feather their own nest by a job that offers good retirement and perks (which not one of them could get in the public sector).
If we end up with a $850 billion barrel … how much does it cost to implement it?
OVER A TRILLION more?

Why would we expect someone who REFUSES to release his own records for public scrutiny to be honest?

Well if this is not a total crock!
Sorry NOT ENOUGH !
Transparency? … start at home my man. Release your own records for a start and maybe the world could give you the respect you do not yet deserve.
What don’t you understand? Any trust, hope and respect you may have been gifted with by the public is fast vanishing.

The sucking noise is what the controlling party in the government HOPES the public is deaf to. Well maybe before but NO LONGER … even their Democratic constituents are beginning to realize a few dolts do not care if they have sold “we the people” down the river (I am reminded of my history classes which enlightened us to the fact that the African Tribal Chiefs sold their own people into Slavery).

It is a dark humorous joke but these ‘wingnuts’ are foisting all of this on “we the people” under the guise of (for one) “an ‘investment’ in America’s future generations”. Oh right I get it … lets sell them down the river economically so they are smart enough to realize it?

I have become a woman on a mission … all of you should join me … for to long we have been shoved into a pigeon hole (someone else’s) and cautioned to be ‘politically correct’. WELL SCREW POLITICALLY CORRECT and everyone stupid enough to fall sway to it. A SPADE IS A DAMN SPADE and more power to it. I am tired of having to try and decipher if someone thinks ’shovel’ is more politically correct. I say we live in a very real tough world. So belly up to the bar boys/girls and get use to it.

We have a government in a shambles. Today I heard testimony from Harry Markopolos to the House Financial Services Sub Committee about his ignored reports in 2000 to the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) about Bernie Madoff and his ponzie scheme. He was flat ignored for over 8 years. What does this oversight faction of the government oversee?
Well try this on for size.
NOTHING !
Should these guys be replaced? You bet … AT LEAST … perhaps they themselves need to be brought up on charges as accomplices. Now that’s a novel idea isn’t it?

What does this boil down to?
Fairly simple. These people simply do not care. They have nothing to lose. They are making rulings or NOT about the safety of YOUR MONEY. They have already feathered their nest so what does it matter if “we the people” get swindled by some 2 bit crook?

There is no accountability ANYWHERE in the government today.
The few principled people left in government are so outnumbered they are hamstrung.

“We the people” must accept some responsibility because a good number of us have sat idle and simply allowed it to happen. Another segment of the population is in despair and thinks they don’t count so they DO NOTHING.

Well I am reminded of an old saying “If you are not part of the solution you are a part of the problem”. I am also reminded of another saying “You get out of life what you put into it.”

Well here we go. We are at the end of a road. Those willing to sit on their duff and do nothing are going to be hitting a brick wall. We are fast coming to a time when the true mass economically supporting this do nothing ineffective government are about to shout NO MORE.

When those supporters decide “WHY SHOULD I PAY TAXES WHEN THE LEADERS DO NOT?” and simply stop.
What then?
What happens when China gets wind that the people who provide the wealth for the government to squander refuse to pay?
Gee whiz do you think they will pull the plug on their lending bucks?
Anyone in their right mind would.

What does the government NOT understand about WE CAN NOT CONTINUE TO BORROW OURSELVES OUT OF DEBT?

This stimulus package is estimated to cost each family $37,000 … this Obama calls change … yes indeed it is. Is it the change you voted for? Had Obama campaigned on: … well our change means you pay us $37,000 … there is no doubt he would have lost in a landslide.

It may come as a shock to the government there is a faction of the population that is responsible. We live within our means. Maybe the government needs to do the same. I suggest if anyone in government wants to give a hand out it needs to start out of their own particular pocket. It’s called charity.

I reckon if this were the case we would see far less pork stuffed into EMERGENCY BAILOUTS.

So everyone in the government … PASS THE HAT AMONG YOURSELVES … YOU ALONE come up with the DOLLAR FIX. You are our leader Barack Obama … you make the first donation. If all of you fall short … well then drag out your fund raising machine and cover the shortfall OR NOT.

Quit coming to the public expecting them to bail out YOUR FOLLY.

California congressional representative Maxine Waters makes the Washington Freak show list. I chose her but I could just as easily chosen:

Rep. Barbara Lee, Emanuel Cleaver, Donna Christensen, G.K. Butterfield, Yvette Clarke, Sanford D. Bishop, Jr., Rep. Corrine Brown, Ronald W. Burris, André Carson, Wm. Lacy Clay, Jr., James E. Clyburn, Founding Member Rep. John Conyers, Jr., Elijah E. Cummings, Artur Davis, Danny Davis, Donna Edwards, Keith Ellison, Chaka Fattah, Marcia Fudge, Al Green, Alcee L. Hastings, Jesse L. Jackson, Jr., Sheila Jackson Lee, Eddie Bernice Johnson, Hank Johnson, Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick, John Lewis, Kendrick Meek, Gregory W. Meeks, Gwen Moore, Eleanor Holmes Norton, Donald M. Payne, Founding Member Rep. Charles B. Rangel, Laura Richardson, Bobby L. Rush, David Scott, Robert C. Scott, Bennie G. Thompson, Edolphus Towns, Diane E. Watson or Melvin L. Watt.

The reason I could have chosen any member of the Congressional Black Caucus is they all are one and the same. They are the closest thing on this planet to the Star Trek Borg. For those of you who forgot The Borg are depicted as an amalgam of cybernetically enhanced humanoid drones of multiple species, organized as an inter-connected collective with a hive mind, inhabiting a vast region of space with many planets and ships. They operate towards one single-minded purpose: to add the biological and technological distinctiveness of other species to their own, in pursuit of perfection. This is achieved through forced assimilation, a process which transforms individuals and technology into Borg, enhancing individuals by adding synthetic components.

Some people have seen this forced assimilation at work in our high schools where rap, hip hop, drugs and promiscuous sex dominate the agenda. Bill O’Reilly showcases this de-evolution of our high schools into cess pools of lower learning and ramped pregnancy and venereal disease. And then there are the fights in high school I so fondly remember. If someone opposed to the clan was fighting and winning another member of the clan jumped in. Pretty much the same as depicted on Star Trek when Captain Pickard defeated one Borg and another magically appeared out of nowhere to continue the fight. Sooner or later Pickard was bound to lose and be assimilated into the collective. That’s pretty much how this group operates. Kill all opposition and assimilate all human forms of life into the collective.

It’s easy to see where these tactics came from. National Geographic has African hunting parties on many of their shows. One of the fascinating scenarios is there the tribesmen surround a lion and attack from all directions, wearing down the lion until the coup de grace is dealt to the unfortunate wild beast. Pretty much the same tactics I observed in my high school in Pontiac, Michigan during the 70’s. The collective destroyed the opposition in Pontiac, Detroit, Benton Harbor, Flint, parts of Lansing and any political opposition in that state. Isolate, outnumber and destroy. Now additional plunder is required so the collective is on the move. Always on the search for new prey to plunder and pillage. Never creating anything of beauty just always looking to plunder and pillage the next city, state or country for their single minded proposes.

The Congressional Black Caucus was the prime supporter of the Community Reinvestment Act which led directly to the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac disasters. Maxine Waters was all for the disasters policies and was the entire CBC. Anything to give money to Negros at the expense of everyone else. It’s all about the Negros. Nothing else matters. Just like the Borg always looking for new forms of life to ravage, assimilate and destroy.

Maxine Water as do all CBC members supports ACORN the corrupt communist group supported by taxpayer dollars. Anything for the Negros. It’s all about the Negros. Plunder, pillage and assimilate. Like a bunch of hungry army ants moving to their next feeding ground. Always leaving behind devastation and ruin wherever they go. Detroit, Pontiac, Flint, Benton Harbor, Lansing. Coming to a city near you soon. People forget that Detroit was once a beautiful city. It has some of the most spectacular architectural building and Victorian houses in the world. What happened? High taxes, high crime, prostitution, ramped drug abuse, collapsing school standards, collapsing moral values and a hopelessness that destroys the soul and human spirit. And now the Borg has the White House. I have seen this story all my life. I know where it leads.

Now let’s pretend I was put in charge of the CBC for a day what would I look at? Blacks have the second highest birth rate among any group. 60.9 per 1,000 women compared to 81.7 for Hispanic and 25.9 for white women. The Borg are losing out to Hispanics in the fight for the number one minority. What a pity.

And let’s look at that out of wedlock birth rate among blacks. 70%? Did I read this right? 70%. What? I guess the welfare is pretty good these days. And the child support if you can find a man stupid enough to pay it can be quite lucrative. Who needs a man when you can have several and get multiple sexual partners and multiple checks in the mail? Funny back in the Jim Crow days of segregation and discrimination the out of wedlock birth rate was 23.6% for blacks and 3.07% for whites. Seems freedom and liberty are not so good for the Borg family unit. Maybe that’s why they always vote for dictators. They need a dictatorship to keep them in line. The disintegration of the Negro family has increased poverty for the children an estimated 65%.

And what about crime? Does the disintegration of the Negro family have a correlation to crime? You bet it does. While blacks are 12% of the population they make up 40.1% of the prison population. They are the largest group of prisoners even outnumbering white who make up 67% of the population. 56% of prisoners grew up with a single mother. Hmmm. Why I bet Maxine if she did some regression analysis, of course how could we expect her to even know what that is, she would find a very strong correlation between the break up of the Negro family and crime as well as childhood poverty. It might even astound Mrs. Waters and the CBC that if you’re born a black male in the United States your chances of going to jail are a whopping 28.6% compared to 16.7% and 4.4% for Hispanics and whites respectively. Is this the dream Martin Luther King Junior envisioned? A half Negro in the White House and 30% of black men under lock and key?

But of course the Borg completely ignores these troubling signs that reflect negatively on the Negro race. There standard response is to surround and attack anyone who points out the truth that we are not all created equal. Destroy, conquer and assimilate. Detroit, Pontiac, Flint, Benton Harbor, Lansing. Nothing of beauty left behind. Nothing created. Only despair and destruction. And then off to the next feeding ground destroying anything that resist.

And what about black poverty? Blacks made $39,683 per capita income. Hmmm. I wonder how that compares to liberated since WWII African countries that are all black and free. Angola $9,100, Botswana $15,800, Chad $1,600, Congo $300, Eritrea $700, Ethiopia $800, our presidents probable place of birth Kenya $1,800, Namibia $5,500, Nigeria $2,200, Niger $700, South Africa $10,400, Zambia $1,500 and Zimbabwe a whopping $200 per year per person. Seems the grass is greener on this side of the Atlantic.

And now we have a bail out bill. The third or fourth. We had rebates, bail out for housing that was $300 billion. Bill out for banks for $700 billion. The Borg initially opposed this bill. Take a guess why? Not really a guess at all. The Borg needed some money for the Negros in the bill before they would support it. That’s pretty much all they are. Support putting money into the Negros pocket. Doesn’t mater if the world banking system collapses and we end up poor, destitute and at war. It’s all about putting that money into the Negros pocket. And now another trillion for another bail out. Lot’s of money for the Negros in this bill. Housing bail outs for the Negros who bought the $500,000 house on a $30,000 a year salary. ACORN and the communist will be happy lots of goodies for them. It’s all about Negros and to hell with the rest of the world. Detroit, Pontiac, Flint, Lansing, Benton Harbor and now Washington.

If I could say anything to these Negros it would be to concentrate on Detroit, Pontiac, and all the other places in this country you have trashed with your hip hop, rap, guns, prostitution, gangster schools, and lazy culture of no achievement. Black women can only be described as fat broodmares. 80% of black women are overweight and SHRINKING in height. In other words your fat lazy promiscuous pigs. The last thing you need is another voucher from the taxpayers for the buffet at the Golden Corral. Get off your ass and for gods sake start cleaning up the pig sty’s that crisscrossing America like locus flying from one place to another, stopping and destroying all life wherever they choose to land. You don’t need another free ticket to the Golden Corral, been there done that. Now you’re fat and lazy.

The black men, if you can call them that, are running around breeding with any broodmare they can get their penis into. That is when they are not serving time in jail. But hey go ahead and sing about your half Negro president. We know he’s an idiot. He got the affirmative action “A” and the affirmative actions walk of the century. Now he will show the people that it was all a lie. And sooner or later the reality that blacks are surrounded by millions of Latinos to the south and millions of whites to the north will dawn on them. Keep feeding at the Golden Corral with your money you plunder off the working people. Sooner or later your free ride will be over. And where will you be? Fat, dumb, lazy and badly outnumbered. Sooner or later. We got your number.

Now I don’t want to leave on a pessimistic note so I will tell Mrs. Waters and the CBC what exactly they need to do to regain a sense of humanity and rejoin Clarence Thomas and Bill Cosby in the ranks of people who can be considered decent human beings.

First support an end to all welfare related to children. Yes end all welfare and get the fat pigs out of the house. Force them to get a job and learn what its like to work for food. Good for blacks, Hispanics and whites. Why should broodmares have free ride? McDonalds is hiring.

No child support for unwed mothers. No welfare for unwed mothers. None. Over. Done. End of story.

Second tell the mayors in Negro cities and towns to pass out vouchers for all students with no conditions and lower taxes. Now think about this if I am raising a family do I want to pay higher taxes in Detroit where my kids will be raped and taught how to kill people and sell drugs or pay lower taxes in Rochester where they will go to school with nice kids and learn enough to get into college? Hmmm tough choice.

Third tell the rappers and hip hop punks to shut up and listen to 50’s and 60’s music. Hell I would even settle for early 80’s funkadelic music. Bragging about killing people and screwing every fat pig on the block isn’t really productive now is it? You want to kill? Join the army. Killing someone by surprise is gutless and takes no skill whatsoever. Screwing some fat chick looking for another voucher for the Golden Corral isn’t all that exciting for us regular folk. Really it shows us you’re an idiot and dangerous.

Fourth get out of Washington if you have nothing positive to contribute. We have plenty of beggars and whiners in Washington. Having a special Borg group dedicated to getting money for Negros does help the cause. The federal government is suppose to defend the people of the United States not give out vouchers for the Golden Corral so you can become fat pigs unable to function in society. You already have gotten a free ride. Time to get off the gravy train and think about actually playing sports instead of watching them on television. Read some Milton Freidman or go to the CATO institute and talk with Dan Mitchell for god’s sake.

Neil Boortz the somewhat famous radio personality from Atlanta likes to tell a story every now and then about the sea gulls in Ft. Myers. It goes like this more or less. Fishermen began populating and fishing in the Gulf of Mexico. At the end of the day they went through their catch and discarded damaged and unmarketable fish into the bay next to their docks. The sea gulls quickly figured this out and began waiting at the dock everyday to fill up. Pretty soon the sea gulls quit fishing and just sat on the dock everyday waiting to be feed. Then one day the legislature outlawed fishing. The sea gulls sat there waiting and waiting. Soon most of them starved to death. A few desperate ones relearned how to fish and survived but most died. This pretty sums up the plight of a majority of blacks in America today. Dependent, fat and lazy. Always looking for that next boat to dock in the harbor and the waste from the working man to be feed to them. Government hand outs. Scraps from the workers of America.

Sooner or later the free ride will be over. The reality is after this trillion dollar bail out fails, and it will, the people will be hungry and angry. Times will change. Countries will come and go. And people will remember your actions, bussing, welfare, crime, drugs, bail outs, parasites one and all. And you will be judged harshly by history and those in future generations who will deal with you. Like the sea gulls a few will survive but most will not.
