The puppet in the Whitehouse.

March 30, 2009

Who is this man Barack Obama?
The truth is NO ONE KNOWS.
No one that is … other than those who manufactured him.
All of his records have been sealed.
Someone is paying huge bucks to keep that material from public view.
WHY?

There are probably a myriad of reasons which all boil to one point … he is a fraud. If this were not true the records to confirm his credibility would have been opened long before now.

So what do we know about Obama?

  • Well we know Khalid Al-Mansour helped get Obama into and through Harvard.
  • We know Obama was molded by Chicago’s notorious political machine.
  • We know the Obama campaign promised “Hope” and “Change,” but delivered neither.

  • We know the same, old socialist-Democrat agenda put on a new costume and a face. Eleven of the 12 members of Obama’s advisory board came from the Clinton administration, as did 31 of the 47 members of his transition team. Obama’s administration is almost a repeat of the Clinton team.
  • For what purpose?
    Could it be global governance?

    G20 meets on April 2 in London.
    The most important goal of the global governance advocates is an independent income stream for the United Nations. Another very important goal is to gain international control of the global economy through the regulation of capital flows, currency and trade.

    Is the USA the target of this new income stream?
    You bet!
    Both Obama (in his campaign speech in Berlin) and Geithner (global currency) have signaled the world of interest in global governance.

    Watch out for taxes on fossil-fuel energy.
    We the workers of the USA are expected to be the slaves in this global governance plan.
    Obama and his minions have already pledged our children and grandchildren with bail outs and stimulus.

    WHO IS THE REAL PUPPET MASTER?


    1933/2009 Hitler/Obama

    The rest of the nation dismissed the Libertarians and Ron Paul as the un-hip crowd. The Jews voted 78% for the new messiah. The Negros voted for the dictator by 95%. Asians voted 62% for the dictator. Only the whites voted for McCain with 55% of the vote. Protestants were the only religion to vote against the dictator with 54% of the vote. The poor, rich highly educated Jews and uneducated overwhelmingly voted for Obama. Where have we seen this story before?
    This past week we got a glimpse of the new Brown Shirt strong arm of the Obama Administration in the form of ACORN. Bus loads of fascist and Black Liberation Theology scum went into the neighborhoods of AIG executives to intimidate them. Pretty much the same as Hitler thugs terrorizing Jewish shop owners. Our first taste of the Obama thugs in real life. Get use to it and get armed.

    This make no mistake is a final push from inside and outside the USA to enslave the White Anglo Saxon Protestant people of America. No other race or religion shares our values of individual liberty and justice for all. No one. We are alone against a world of thugs dedicated to the destruction of liberty and freedom emanating from the United States to the rest of the world.
    If you have white guilt you better get rid of it real quick. Forces are being assembled as fast as possible to jail, kill and enslave you economically and physically. You are going to fight or become a slave. It’s that simple.

    60 days and we have seen our thug president lie at press conferences about fiscal discipline and other minutia. We have seen his thugs in action. We know he believes in Black Liberation Theology. He is a student of Islamic terrorist and Carl Marx. Time to get your head out of your ass and accept the facts. America’s Hitler is in the White House and its 1933. The clock is ticking.

    You need to know there will be a lot of inflation and unemployment purposely brought onto you from both the democrats and republicans. War will visit America once again. Obama and his thugs will not be afraid to draft your kids. Your kids will be in Obama youth corps and sent off to war to die in foreign lands. This is what dictators are about and this is what dictators do.
    We have about 100 decent congressmen and women and about 15 decent senators left. The rest are Obots who will follow the dictator to the bloody end. Get use to that idea.

    Republicans are not your friend. Republicans serve the propose of letting people vent and then turning them over to the police. They are a false hope and will let you down every time. They have been corrupted. John Boehner is totally corrupted and should be treated with the same scorn and contempt as Nancy Pelosi or Diane Feinstein. The revolution will not come from the Republican Party.

    Everyone ask themselves what they would do if they were in Germany in 1933 and Hitler was in power? Run? Fight the secret fight? Write? Well now for Americans it’s no longer hypothetical. We have our Hitler. And instead of the Jews it will be the White Anglo Saxon Protestants the Negros and Jews hate so much. Race wars suck but Obama sat in a Black Liberation Theology church for 20 years soaking up the hate. Obama not me.

    It really sucks to talk in such racial terms. We all know people in Costa Rica, Venezuela, Zimbabwe, India, China, and Japan and throughout the world who cherish and love individual liberty and freedom. And if these people only voted for and supported politicians with those values we would all be better off. But that’s not what happens in the real world and we all need to stop deluding ourselves that we are all on the same side. We are not.

    Look at the world. See any thriving all black democracies in Africa? How about South America? A few here and there. Europe is being taken over by the Islamic fascist. Asia? Japan and Korea countries where the USA set up their governments. No the idea of individual liberty and justice for all is a white man thing. Capitalism and free markets are a white mans thing. The rest of the world is annoyed by it and now they and Obama are out to kill liberty and freedom for another 600 years. The Dark Ages will return.

    So what will you do? Organize protest? Tea partiers and tax protest are great organizers and fun. But protestors are easily wiped out and people arrested. What do millions of Jews who were exterminated wish they could tell you now that you face the same fate as they suffered?

    What would millions of Jews have done if they had a second chance? Escape would be the most obvious answer. Escape to America. And for our youth escaping to Alaska is an alternative location to regroup against the tyrant to the south.
    What about the older generation with property and responsibilities? Millions of older Jews were killed in Hitler’s gas chambers. What would they tell us today? I would suspect arm yourselves and be ready to fight. One loner taking on Obama’s ACORN Black Liberation Theology thugs isn’t much but a few hundred thousand sure would make an impact. Imagine if in 1933 the millions of Jews destined for the gas chambers decided to resist in any manner they could. Would it have changed history? Probably not but it sure would have put the fear of God into the NAZI bastards as they rounded up the Jews for slaughter.

    How many millions of dead Jews if they had a chance to go back to 1933 would have prepared differently? How many would have responded differently to that knock on the door by the local SS officer informing them that they are to leave town immediately? How many dreamed of a chance to retaliate as they were being shipped off to their deaths?
    Obama is a thug who hates white people. He will create inflation and war with China to get what he really wants. A dictatorship like FDR had from 1933 to 1944. Some pundits like the dim witted Carl Rove pretend Obama is done in 4 years because the economy will stink and be lot worse than today. False. FDR had an average unemployment rate of 17.2% and was re-elected three times. Make no mistake like Chavez in Venezuela Obama is your dictator for the foreseeable future.

    So ask yourself what are you going to do about it?


    Hard Constitutional questions posed to Geithner.

    March 28, 2009
    Posted by clinicalthinker @ 13:21 PM

    Michele Bachmann (R-MN) posed fairly hardball questions to Timothy Geithner about his Constitutional authority to pillage the assets of the US citizens yesterday. I am not sure he knew the answers and at best fumbled his way through the session. Lucky for Geithner that good old Barney Frank hammered a gavel and called TIMES UP.

    Apparently Geithner is IGNORANT of the guidelines in this most important document.

    On the other hand it is not much of a surprise that Geithner was a little fuzzy on his answers about the authority granted by the Constitution. In fact clearly Obama has little regard for the Constitution either. You know he still has that little matter of his “natural born citizenship” issue floating around the halls of the SCOTUS.

    Then this week, Geithner released details of the Obama administration’s plan to further inject government control over the private sector. If Obama and Geithner have their way, more financial institutions will be forced to “report in” to the government and have restrictions placed on what the institutions and the investors can and can not do with their money.

    From the beginning Geithner did not garner much trust from those with an active brain but next Maxine Waters (D-CA) posed some pretty pointed questions also. Her “just the facts sir” attitude made me chuckle. Apparently these 2 women have more balls than many men on the Washington scene of late.


    1st & 2nd Ammendment DOOMED With HB 1388 Forced Servitude Bill

    March 28, 2009
    Posted by clinicalthinker @ 13:14 PM

    I just ran across this information on the http://www.americac2c.org/ website.

    It is information we all need to know about before it is to late. Daily our rights are being taken away by the politicians in Washington.

    I have said this before and say it again.
    Barack Obama sits on a powder keg and has a lighted match in hand. It is increasingly clear setting match to fuse is no big problem for him.

    You might want to keep in mind should you grab the bulls by the horns and wade into these bills that on the surface they look benign. Politicians will also say “well they were not meant for that” (whatever their definition for THAT is).

    A great example of THAT is the “eminent domain” issues that have sprung up in the last few years. In the beginning that law was never intended to deprive the citizenry of their property for the advancement of some private conglomerate that today wants to profit.

    We the citizens need to rise up and protect one another or face ALONE the same fate ourselves.

    DOOMED With HB 1388 Forced Servitude Bill

    2 VERY dangerous Bills that were “slipped in” and “hidden” within the folds of HR 1388, Obama’s Forced Servitude Bill that was passed by the House on Friday. The Senate is voting on HR 1388 Monday which also contains
    H Amdt. 49 os HB 1388. revoking your right to assemble or protest, & S 22 a huge Gun-Control /Land grab bill.

    [1st Ammendment]

    Say goodbye to your 1st Ammendment. The “GIVE Act” HB 1388.” “to prohibit organizations from attempting to influence legislation; organize or engage in protests, petitions, boycotts, or strikes; and assist, promote, or deter union organizing” of the “Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education Act”. The “GIVE Act” HB 1388 passed by the House on Friday, will be voted on by the Senate Monday 23rd.

    H. Amdt. 49 os HB 1388 is going to make criminals out of the PEACEFUL resistance movement. This covers all, even left wing groups who like to protest the war, the environment and etc.

    Yes, the main stream media and left wing groups such as the “Southern Law Poverty Center” and the ADL will lump movements such as this one with Neo-Nazis, White extremists and etc, just like they did with the militia movements back during the ’90s.

    Please see H.R.1388 “The Give Act” Mein Führer Requires YOU to SERVE 3 Years, (and
    GIVE HIM YOUR GUNS & YOUR LAND & SHUT UP!!)

    See the bill text here:
    http://www.rules.house.gov/111/LegText/111_hr1388_txt.pdf

    [2ND AMENDMENT]

    Say goodbye to your guns & your land. S 22 is a mammoth bill comprised of over 190 separate pieces of legislation and was quietly “tucked” within the massive Omnibus Spending Bill, but now it has been slipped into the crevices of the massive “Forced Servitude” Bill HB1388. S. 22 includes a rule that will not allow pro-gun representatives to offer amendments.

    There are serious Second Amendment concerns with this legislation. S 22 will greatly expand the amount of land controlled by the National Park Service (NPS). Because the rights of lawful gun owners are restricted on NPS land, the bill will create even more “anti-Second Amendment” zones among other things.

    Hitler youth?

    March 27, 2009
    Posted by clinicalthinker @ 1:18 AM

    Are you familiar with the Hitler Youth program of Nazi Germany?
    If not you should be.
    Take a look at what happened in Germany then decide if this is appropriate for American children.
    As benign as it might seem somehow compulsory associated with volunteerism somehow does not quite line up in my books. “The GIVE Act” and “The SERVE Act” another primrose path?

    hitler-youth

    The Hitler Youth was a logical extension of Hitler’s belief that the future of Nazi Germany was its children. The Hitler Youth was seen as being as important to a child as school was. In the early years of the Nazi government, Hitler had made it clear as to what he expected German children to be like:

    “The weak must be chiseled away. I want young men and women who can suffer pain. A young German must be as swift as a greyhound, as tough as leather, and as hard as Krupp’s steel.”

    Nazi education schemes part fitted in with this but Hitler wanted to occupy the minds of the young in Nazi Germany even more.

    Movements for youngsters were part of German culture and the Hitler Youth had been created in the 1920’s. By 1933 its membership stood at 100,000. After Hitler came to power, all other youth movements were abolished and as a result the Hitler Youth grew quickly. In 1936, the figure stood at 4 million members. In 1936, it became all but compulsory to join the Hitler Youth. Youths could avoid doing any active service if they paid their subscription but this became all but impossible after 1939.

    The Hitler Youth catered for 10 to 18 year olds. There were separate organisations for boys and girls. The task of the boys section was to prepare the boys for military service. For girls, the organisation prepared them for motherhood.

    shirachBoys at 10, joined the Deutsches Jungvolk (German Young People) until the age of 13 when they transferred to the Hitler Jugend (Hitler Youth) until the age of 18. In 1936, the writer J R Tunus wrote about the activities of the Hitler Jugend. He stated that part of their “military athletics” (Wehrsport) included marching, bayonet drill, grenade throwing, trench digging, map reading, gas defence, use of dugouts, how to get under barbed wire and pistol shooting.

    Girls, at the age of 10, joined the Jungmadelbund (League of Young Girls) and at the age of 14 transferred to the Bund Deutscher Madel (League of German Girls). Girls had to be able to run 60 metres in 14 seconds, throw a ball 12 metres, complete a 2 hour march, swim 100 metres and know how to make a bed.

    The whole Hitler Youth movement was overseen by Balder von Shirach.

    To the outside world, the Hitler Youth seemed to personify German discipline. In fact, this image was far from accurate. School teachers complained that boys and girls were so tired from attending evening meetings of the Hitler Youth, that they could barely stay awake the next day at school. Also by 1938, attendance at Hitler Youth meetings was so poor – barely 25% – that the authorities decided to tighten up attendance with the 1939 law making attendance compulsory.


    NOT IN MY TOWN!

    euilleThe mayor of Alexandria VA issues a protest over the possibility of the Gitmo prisoners being housed in his town.
    William D. Euille (D) is not a happy camper as he finds Alexandria is on the short list as final destination for all or a few of the Gitmo detainees.

    Most of us fully understand his reluctance of wanting these terrorists in his own back yard.

    Here is the hitch.
    His mindset is not different than most other officials thinking the shut down of Gitmo is the best deal since sliced bread. Not many of them want the detainees landing on their own front stoop either.

    Actually I think what is good for the goose is good for the gander.
    If you think it up and support it … well then be responsible.
    Belly up to the bar and lead the charge.

    In this case the charge is detainees in your own house.

    Personally I feel if they need to be spread into the communities of the USA? … first stop is the Lincoln Bedroom.

    It does not take rocket science to figure out if those leading the charge for some of this change were called on FIRST to sacrifice for it the scenery of today would be drastically different.


    Dear A.I.G., I Quit!

    March 25, 2009
    Posted by clinicalthinker @ 11:48 AM

    Daily it becomes more clear how certain members of congress and the senate need to be tarred and feathered. They are quick to stand on a pulpit and rant about those in charge of AIG and the like for running the businesses into the ground when they themselves are equally or more culpable.

    Last night the President stood on his podium and talked about the change of NO DEBT or living beyond our means.

    What can he be thinking? OH THAT’S RIGHT HE IS NOT!
    Or again he thinks ‘we the public’ are total fools.
    ARE WE?
    Does anyone else out there understand when this man speaks a lie of some kind fly’s out?

    Enough is ENOUGH!

    The following is a letter sent on Tuesday by Jake DeSantis, an executive vice president of the American International Group’s financial products unit, to Edward M. Liddy, the chief executive of A.I.G.

    email-header

    DEAR Mr. Liddy,

    It is with deep regret that I submit my notice of resignation from A.I.G. Financial Products. I hope you take the time to read this entire letter. Before describing the details of my decision, I want to offer some context:

    I am proud of everything I have done for the commodity and equity divisions of A.I.G.-F.P. I was in no way involved in — or responsible for — the credit default swap transactions that have hamstrung A.I.G. Nor were more than a handful of the 400 current employees of A.I.G.-F.P. Most of those responsible have left the company and have conspicuously escaped the public outrage.

    After 12 months of hard work dismantling the company — during which A.I.G. reassured us many times we would be rewarded in March 2009 — we in the financial products unit have been betrayed by A.I.G. and are being unfairly persecuted by elected officials. In response to this, I will now leave the company and donate my entire post-tax retention payment to those suffering from the global economic downturn. My intent is to keep none of the money myself.

    I take this action after 11 years of dedicated, honorable service to A.I.G. I can no longer effectively perform my duties in this dysfunctional environment, nor am I being paid to do so. Like you, I was asked to work for an annual salary of $1, and I agreed out of a sense of duty to the company and to the public officials who have come to its aid. Having now been let down by both, I can no longer justify spending 10, 12, 14 hours a day away from my family for the benefit of those who have let me down.

    You and I have never met or spoken to each other, so I’d like to tell you about myself. I was raised by schoolteachers working multiple jobs in a world of closing steel mills. My hard work earned me acceptance to M.I.T., and the institute’s generous financial aid enabled me to attend. I had fulfilled my American dream.

    I started at this company in 1998 as an equity trader, became the head of equity and commodity trading and, a couple of years before A.I.G.’s meltdown last September, was named the head of business development for commodities. Over this period the equity and commodity units were consistently profitable — in most years generating net profits of well over $100 million. Most recently, during the dismantling of A.I.G.-F.P., I was an integral player in the pending sale of its well-regarded commodity index business to UBS. As you know, business unit sales like this are crucial to A.I.G.’s effort to repay the American taxpayer.

    The profitability of the businesses with which I was associated clearly supported my compensation. I never received any pay resulting from the credit default swaps that are now losing so much money. I did, however, like many others here, lose a significant portion of my life savings in the form of deferred compensation invested in the capital of A.I.G.-F.P. because of those losses. In this way I have personally suffered from this controversial activity — directly as well as indirectly with the rest of the taxpayers.

    I have the utmost respect for the civic duty that you are now performing at A.I.G. You are as blameless for these credit default swap losses as I am. You answered your country’s call and you are taking a tremendous beating for it.

    But you also are aware that most of the employees of your financial products unit had nothing to do with the large losses. And I am disappointed and frustrated over your lack of support for us. I and many others in the unit feel betrayed that you failed to stand up for us in the face of untrue and unfair accusations from certain members of Congress last Wednesday and from the press over our retention payments, and that you didn’t defend us against the baseless and reckless comments made by the attorneys general of New York and Connecticut.

    My guess is that in October, when you learned of these retention contracts, you realized that the employees of the financial products unit needed some incentive to stay and that the contracts, being both ethical and useful, should be left to stand. That’s probably why A.I.G. management assured us on three occasions during that month that the company would “live up to its commitment” to honor the contract guarantees.

    That may be why you decided to accelerate by three months more than a quarter of the amounts due under the contracts. That action signified to us your support, and was hardly something that one would do if he truly found the contracts “distasteful.”

    That may also be why you authorized the balance of the payments on March 13.

    At no time during the past six months that you have been leading A.I.G. did you ask us to revise, renegotiate or break these contracts — until several hours before your appearance last week before Congress.

    I think your initial decision to honor the contracts was both ethical and financially astute, but it seems to have been politically unwise. It’s now apparent that you either misunderstood the agreements that you had made — tacit or otherwise — with the Federal Reserve, the Treasury, various members of Congress and Attorney General Andrew Cuomo of New York, or were not strong enough to withstand the shifting political winds.

    You’ve now asked the current employees of A.I.G.-F.P. to repay these earnings. As you can imagine, there has been a tremendous amount of serious thought and heated discussion about how we should respond to this breach of trust.

    As most of us have done nothing wrong, guilt is not a motivation to surrender our earnings. We have worked 12 long months under these contracts and now deserve to be paid as promised. None of us should be cheated of our payments any more than a plumber should be cheated after he has fixed the pipes but a careless electrician causes a fire that burns down the house.

    Many of the employees have, in the past six months, turned down job offers from more stable employers, based on A.I.G.’s assurances that the contracts would be honored. They are now angry about having been misled by A.I.G.’s promises and are not inclined to return the money as a favor to you.

    The only real motivation that anyone at A.I.G.-F.P. now has is fear. Mr. Cuomo has threatened to “name and shame,” and his counterpart in Connecticut, Richard Blumenthal, has made similar threats — even though attorneys general are supposed to stand for due process, to conduct trials in courts and not the press.

    So what am I to do? There’s no easy answer. I know that because of hard work I have benefited more than most during the economic boom and have saved enough that my family is unlikely to suffer devastating losses during the current bust. Some might argue that members of my profession have been overpaid, and I wouldn’t disagree.

    That is why I have decided to donate 100 percent of the effective after-tax proceeds of my retention payment directly to organizations that are helping people who are suffering from the global downturn. This is not a tax-deduction gimmick; I simply believe that I at least deserve to dictate how my earnings are spent, and do not want to see them disappear back into the obscurity of A.I.G.’s or the federal government’s budget. Our earnings have caused such a distraction for so many from the more pressing issues our country faces, and I would like to see my share of it benefit those truly in need.

    On March 16 I received a payment from A.I.G. amounting to $742,006.40, after taxes. In light of the uncertainty over the ultimate taxation and legal status of this payment, the actual amount I donate may be less — in fact, it may end up being far less if the recent House bill raising the tax on the retention payments to 90 percent stands. Once all the money is donated, you will immediately receive a list of all recipients.

    This choice is right for me. I wish others at A.I.G.-F.P. luck finding peace with their difficult decision, and only hope their judgment is not clouded by fear.

    Mr. Liddy, I wish you success in your commitment to return the money extended by the American government, and luck with the continued unwinding of the company’s diverse businesses — especially those remaining credit default swaps. I’ll continue over the short term to help make sure no balls are dropped, but after what’s happened this past week I can’t remain much longer — there is too much bad blood. I’m not sure how you will greet my resignation, but at least Attorney General Blumenthal should be relieved that I’ll leave under my own power and will not need to be “shoved out the door.”

    Sincerely,

    Jake DeSantis


    Printing Money and Disaster

    March 24, 2009
    Posted by Economics9698 @ 11:03 AM

    billy-picture robert-d-raiford

    As I watch Glen Beck on television and radio personality Robert D. Raiford of the John Boy and Billy show struggle with economics and the different messages they get from economic “experts” I will struggled to explain in layman’s terms as best I can. What is really going on with all these economics and why the information is so different from one source to the next? I will do my best to make what is occurring as clear as possible.

    glen_beck_picture john-boy-picture

    Glen Beck struggles with the concept of the Federal Reserve and its Chairman Ben Bernanke printing trillions of dollars and the damage it will do to the economy. To understand his motivations it’s necessary to go back in time to the Great Depression and John Maynard Keynes.

    ben-bernanke-pictureDuring the 1920’s the stock market had a huge bubble as we all know that burst in 1929. Everyone blames the Great Depression on the stock market. But for Mr. Bernanke and thousands of economists we know that’s false. Government actions make a routine cyclical recession into a depression eventually leading to the rise of Hitler and WWII. The average unemployment rate under Roosevelt was a catastrophic 17.2%! One of the great if not the greatest tragedy in human existence only rivaled by the Black Death that swept the world several times in the 1340’s, killing 30 to 60% of Europeans as well as the 17th and 18th century plagues. Unlike the plague the depression and world war was totally man made catastrophes.

    What the government did to make a regular cyclical recession into disaster was three huge blunders. On the federal level Hoover and Roosevelt raised taxes on the rich from 25% to 55% then Roosevelt to 75%. Sound familiar? Hoover increased federal spending 55% on various government projects like the Hoover Dam. Sound familiar? George Bush did the same with the wars, education and drug programs for seniors. Roosevelt further increased federal spending with his New Deal programs, increased business regulation and increased taxes on the wealthy. Sound familiar? Hoover raised tariffs 90%. Sound familiar? Obama was battling it out in the primaries bragging he could raise tariffs the fastest. It’s as if Bush and Obama are following the script of Hoover and Roosevelt to a T.

    And one aspect that is lost in all this is the Federal Reserve did some truly asinine moves with the money supply. When the recession hit the Fed decreased the money supply 30%! Ouch! The exact opposite of what should have been done. Later in 1937 the Fed doubled the reserve requirement again throwing the country into depression. Monumental blunders that were not lost on Bernanke who studied the Great Depression during his college years. Bernanke is determined not to repeat the blunders of the past but is going in the opposite direction with a vengeance. And here is where economist differs in their approaches.
    Bernanke and democrats in general are students of John Maynard Keynes the great arrogant economist during the 1930’s and 40’s. These Keynesian economists believe, although they will deny it, that government and people of superior intelligence such as themselves are equipped to deal with all the economic problems of the world. Super smart people like Bernie Madoff, Chuck Schumer, Michael Milken, Bernard Ebbers, Dennis Kozlowski, and Kenneth Lay from all walks of life feel entitled to rip off or impose government policies on people because they all have a underlying contempt for the unwashed masses. They feel superior and entitled to power and privilege.

    John Maynard Keynes was fond of tapping his two fingers on the desk when conducting business hearings during WWII when contractors begged for government approval to raise prices to keep up with ramped inflation that was occurring on the black market of the time. The money supply was up 121% but inflation must have been a figment of these contractors’ imaginations. The finger tap on the desk literally represented his signal to his colleges that the head ant on top of the hill was signaling with his antennas to his comrades below that the shit was about to roll down hill. In other words he thought the person pleading was full of shit. This disrespect for working folks and their companies is blatantly apparent to readers of Keynes. And that is why so many politicians are drawn to Keynes. Central planning and a feeling of superiority and privilege over the stupid ignorant masses that are too stupid to see the big picture.

    Radio personality Robert D. Raiford complains of Keynes “paradox of thrift.” Essentially this theory states that if we all save our money it may be personally good for us as individuals but is bad for the economy. Raiford, a highly educated man with a master’s degree, must have received some pretty bias economic education and like millions of Americans struggles with even the most basic understanding of the subject. The problem with Keynes is his theory like so many of his theories doesn’t hold up to reality. Increased savings go into banks. Banks are in the business to lend money in normal times. Someone will borrow the money and spend it. Second if everyone saved prices will drop. People would start to be attracted to lower prices and spend. Even the biggest savers in the world have a marginal propensity to consume. Raiford because of economic ignorance prevalent throughout society fails to connect the dots and discard this Keynesian myth.

    And there you have it. A lot of economic disinformation is being taught and used by politicians, personalities and even our Federal Reserve Chairman. Mr. Keynes did a lot of good brilliant work on developing a national economic model overview referred to as the Gross Domestic Product. He is an economic giant and his concepts are taught but he was wrong on the paradox of thrift, liquidity trap and many of his depression era theories. Our Federal Chairman is a strong follower of these theories. God help us all.

    Liquidity trap. What is it and why is it significant? A liquidity trap is a situation in monetary economics in which a country’s interest rate has been lowered nearly or equal to zero to avoid a recession. Sound familiar? Our Federal Funds rate or commonly referred to overnight rate of lending, is currently 0.20%. And no one is lending. The market is not stimulated. Banks are keeping assets in short term cash accounts and avoiding long term investments making the recession worse. Mr. Bernanke is reliving the same liquidity trap that Keynes experienced in the 1930’s. So Mr. Bernanke is telling all those who will listen to pump trillions into the economy to get the economy moving again. And there you have the well intentioned motive of Mr. Bernanke although like Keynes the well intentioned theories will prove to be a monumental disaster for the country.
    Why are banks really holding out? Politically you could argue the dysfunctional nut jobs in Washington DC are destroying banking confidence with crazy bail outs, buy outs, insane tax policies, insane mark to market accounting rules and you would be partially correct. The politicians in Washington are a disaster. And it’s both parties. Both parties need to be retired to the ash heap of history along with the Whigs, Federalist and Bull Moose political parties. The Democrats and Republicans of today are completely and totally incompetent to do anything. The federal government should be frozen and stored away in some deep freezer only to be thawed out after the adults have cleaned up the mess they created. So yes the political situation is hurting the economy. But that’s not the major reason banks are holding out.

    Banker being bankers are looking at possible future inflation. Why is this so important to a banker? Bankers have been burned so many times by government it just comes naturally. In the 60’s and early 70’s banks made low interest loans only to be burned by inflationary federal government and Federal Reserve policies that created inflation in the late 70’s and early 80’s. Bankers made 5% loans in 1973 only to see loan rates climb to 9% in 1974 then 18% in 1981. The inflation rate went from 3% to 15%. So if you’re a banker and you made that nice 5% loan for 30 years guess what? Eight years into the loan the inflation rate is 15% and you’re in the red. Your books are a disaster full of low interest loans and you either have to go out of business or make very high risk loans to recoup your massive losses. And this is what happened to many savings and loan companies that lead directly to the savings and loan disaster of the late 80’s and early 90’s. It was bad government fiscal and monetary policy leading to the destruction of hundreds of lending institutions and the loss of thousands of jobs. The government created the Resolution Trust Fund to clean up the mess it had created.

    Then after the S&L mess was cleaned up we got the Community Reinvestment Act, Sarbanes-Oxley, Freddie Mae, Fannie Mac and political backstabbing. Banks were forced to make bad loans by the government to unworthy borrowers, Fannie and Freddie buy and sell toxic assets throughout the banking and financial system, AIG and other politically connected firms buy the toxic assets by the billions for political favors from Washington.

    Bribes, payoffs, bonuses of every kind imaginable were made and the system crashed. Insiders on Wall Street demanded payback for the bogus paper coming out of Fannie and Freddie and then came the bail outs. Fraud and chaos once again perpetrated by the politicians in Washington. These robbers just cannot resist the temptation to screw with the banking system of America with their insane schemes. It’s like the crooks and mafia joined forces with the police and are ransacking every bank they can get to.

    And now the final blow to bankers’ confidence. The Federal Reserve assisted by Congress pumps up the monetary base from $800 billion to $1,800 billion. Bankers being bankers are not the stupid twits all the Keynesians in congress think they are. They can read the Federal Reserve data. They can do the math. They are bankers. They passed business calculus and accounting in college unlike our idiots in Washington with their political science degrees of useless information. Would any sane banker make a loan at 5% if the inflation rate is going to be 15% in a couple of years? Gee let me think on that one Mr. Frank and Mr. Dodd. It’s really quite simple to clear thinking bankers and anyone else paying attention. Only blundering politicians and Keynesian economists who think they can pull a fast one over the dumb business bumpkins are fooled by this buffoonery.

    So what is the real deal? Economics is part science and part psychological. Having a communist educated idiot in the White House and a bunch of thieves in congress is not the way to inspire confidence. What would I do?
    Cut federal spending. The last thing the economy needs is more idiots spending taxpayer’s money. Privatize social security, eliminate all aid to seniors and cut them a check every month and let them deal with it. Billions and billions would be saved in useless bureaucracies and more importantly the money would go to the people. Get rid of the departments of education and housing. Complete and utter waste of money if there ever was one. All the money in the world isn’t going to make a dumb kid smart.

    Take away the power of the Federal Reserve to set any kind of interest rate. Batting 500 in baseball is good but not when it comes to banking. Leave the banks alone to charge what they want to for interest rates. As a safeguard pass an act similar to Glass-Segal limiting banks to no more than 5% market share in the United States. Not needed but it will make the monopoly conspiracy theory people happy. It’s past time to strip the Federal Reserve of its power over interest rates.
    Cut the corporate and capital gains taxes to 25% and 10%. Sending a signal that comrade Obama is not going to pull a Chairman Mao would be a nice gesture to the folks who actually work for a living.

    Better yet get a flat income tax and get rid of all other federal taxes including tariffs, corporate and capital gains. Do that and the boom will last a decade or more. Everyone who wants a job will have one. Private markets and employers actually work for a living. Government is nothing more than a thief or at best a referee.

    And that is the fundamental differences in economist. The demand side Keynesians believe they are superior and resort to government power and money to bully people and businesses around. Their policies lead to disaster time and time again. Fascist, socialist and communist are drawn to the economics of Carl Marx and John Maynard Keynes.
    The supply side Milton Freidman types believe in free markets and little government interference. Adam Smith in his book Wealth of Nations back in 1776 pretty much captured the magic of free enterprise 223 years ago. Nothing really has changed much. Nations that pursue free economic systems prosper and those that don’t get poor. It’s not complex.
    People claim Wall Street greed brought down the house of cards. Nothing could be further from the truth. Washington’s constant meddling in the banking system decade after decade brought it all crashing down. Why the banks? Well because as Willie Sutton said “that’s where the money is.”

    And what is in it for politicians in the long run to destroy the economic system of its country? Besides the obvious political power and pay offs where will all this lead? Inflation will destroy elderly independence and wipe out the middle and upper middle classes. Obama wants a classless society. Inflation is the quickest way to get there.
    Socialized medicine will lead to rationing. Who will control the rationing? Government. Favored political groups like minorities and gays will get preferential treatment as they do now with so many government programs. The elderly reduced to poverty by inflation will see the most severe rationing. No money no power. Dictatorship. Just as Roosevelt and Keynes enjoyed during the height of WWII.

    And the ironic thing is the people will praise Obama just like they did Roosevelt when it’s all over. I guess it would be similar to John McCain praising his torturers for quitting the torture. It sure does feel good when they quit breaking your arms doesn’t it John?

    And there you have it Mr. Beck and Raiford. I strongly urge you to read up on libertarian principals and economics. Freidman, Smith, CATO, Heritage and the Libertarian Party are and always will be sources of inspiration. Tomas Payne in his Common Sense pamphlets need to be reprinted and distributed to all freedom loving Americans.

    The world is a different place than it was in 1929. Information passes quickly to the masses. If I and millions can see for ourselves what is happening to the monetary base there is hope. We can remove the tyrants from power. As Mr. Beck states this isn’t a Republican or Democratic thing. Both political parties are moving in the same direction, total power. They are fighting over the spoils of power not differing principals. Both parties need to be removed from power and social engineering needs to be put at the state and local level where it belongs.

    If Mr. Beck or Raiford read this insipid little blog I hope it helps. Don’t Tread on Me.


    The sleeping giant is awake.

    March 23, 2009
    Posted by clinicalthinker @ 9:50 AM

    It seems the public is truly fed up and ENOUGH IS ENOUGH has become the mantra of the day.
    Give back the kick backs (political contributions) from AIG. In the latest poll from Rasmussen 67% say GIVE THEM BACK! While 21% say no. To date only Chris Dodd has said he would. Of course Chris Dodd says he will do a number of things and does not come through. Then we must consider Dodd is living in fear he might be impeached or recalled someday soon. It is probably a good idea for the public to see what he actually is going to do in this case.

    Holding ones breath for action to take place is NOT ADVISED!

    The public IS NOT STUPID! It does not take rocket scientists to understand the bailout money has gone to those who caused the crisis to begin with. And those who should be the overseers to the whole mess clearly were brain dead on these issues.

    Is the public scrutiny going away? Not in this century. The sleeping giant (the true silent majority) has been awakened and is beginning to flex its muscles and scream STOP.

    We have forgotten we are the POWER and it is in the best interest of all in public office to realize that lest they be booted out of office on their dead ass butts.

    I still believe they need to take a pay cut just like they suggest the public do.

    I think 66% drop is a good figure.
    After all they have been sucking the tits of the government long enough. Let them work a year for $1 like the head of AIG has said he would do.

    Keep in mind those in politics have the attitude of “let them eat cake” while the mass who is now REQUIRED to provide cake and a lot more to the lazy dolts on the hill sees life from a whole different perspective.

    I am interested to see who really has the metal to win this battle.
    So far my money is on the awakening giant for a whole lot of reasons.

    List of the top 5 people who got kick backs from AIG

    Chris Dodd (D-CT) $280,238
    George Bush (R) $200,560
    Chuck Schumer (D-NY) $111,875
    Barack Obama (D) $107,332
    John McCain (R-AZ) $99,249

    Congressional knee jerk decisions caused by feigned outrage.

    March 21, 2009
    Posted by clinicalthinker @ 19:43 PM

    Apparently the American public is doomed to ignorance and knee jerk reactions by Congress over the AIG bonuses. The house quickly passed a 90% tax on all bonuses AGAIN WITHOUT FIRST placing their minds in gear.
    What can they be thinking … AGAIN Oh I know they are NOT!.
    I suppose an even better question is DO THEY EVER?
    The answer to that of late is NO THEY DO NOT!

    We now have a renegade group in Washington who all of a sudden is letting the fear of public reprisal sink in.

    The Republicans got the message when the mass moved to vote in change.
    Gee whiz … we pissed them off … now what?
    They are still in a mass flurry to try and gain control of their party which scattered into 1000 different directions.

    The Democrats still reveling in the glory of their victory arrogantly figured they could do exactly what they pleased because after all “we the people are pretty stupid and do not know the difference any way.

    Now with the economy in the tank and the populace outraged over the crap foisted on us all by both parties. The latest blame lies at the feet of the Democratic party in control and suddenly it is getting clear they may be seriously out on a limb sawing it off behind themselves. It is fast becoming evident to them “we the people” are not quite as stupid as they hoped.

    We are collecting together in the middle of 2 parties screaming ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
    WE WILL BE HEARD!
    OR YOU WILL LOSE YOUR CUSHIE SEATS!
    AFTER ALL YOU WORK FOR US!

    Thank heavens THIS TIME the Republicans have put the skids on and blocked Democratic efforts Thursday evening to bring up the Senate version of the tax bill to recoup most of the $165 million paid out by AIG last weekend and other bonuses in 2009.

    This passing of bills in the dead of night is appalling and needs to stop. It is good the public is ever vigilant and willing to shout what they see at every turn. We do not get transparency from the White house … we do however get it from the people.

    Great Job Public!


    How to make a user post in WordPress 2.7

    March 21, 2009
    Posted by clinicalthinker @ 8:55 AM

    Hi Users,

    They say a picture is worth a thousand words. I suppose pictures and words make the whole process even better

    It took forever but here are the little videos that I made to explain the nuts and bolts on how to make a post in WordPress 2.7.

    Those of you who have not been here in a while will notice a new dashboard format. That is because WordPress just had a nice upgrade that in the long run will make this Blogging Software much better.

    This first set of video are 4 in number. Sorry to have to split them up but the brand new software that creates these little videos does NOT like them really long. Just a note … video on the internet takes quite a lot of room and bandwidth to display. Those who do not have broadband probably will have difficulty with video on the internet. So when the software screamed and failed to publish my video I was forced to chop this tutorial into 4 sections. To bad it took me 2 days to try and figure out what the failure was. To bad all of this happened over the week end when the developers are kicking back with mojitos in grip on a lounge watching some NFL game.

    How to use these videos:

    • 1. I suggest unless you have a handy pair of binoculars you click the little square symbol under the play arrow in the center of the video. This will allow you to look at the video in full screen mode.
    • 2. At the bottom of the video if you hover there with your cursor a control bar will appear.
    • 3. If at any time you want to reduce the size of your video the same little square symbol will be at the bottom right corner of your screen. Clicking that will make the video small again.

    The Washington Freak Show, Part IV: Chuck Schumer

    March 21, 2009
    Posted by Economics9698 @ 8:52 AM

    schumer_picMr. Schumer was born in Brooklyn to a Jewish family. He attended public schools in Brooklyn, scoring a 1600 on the SAT, and graduated as the valedictorian from James Madison High School in 1967. He attended Harvard College, where he became interested in politics and campaigned for Eugene McCarthy in 1968. After completing his undergraduate degree, he continued to Harvard Law School, earning his Juris Doctor in 1974. Schumer passed the New York State Bar Exam in early 1975 but never practiced law, entering politics instead.

    Reading his legislative record is like reading the blueprint for the next fascist regime. Mr. Schumer coauthored an assault weapons ban in 1994 and helping pass the Brady Handgun Violence Protection Act. He was one of 16 senators who voted against the Vitter Amendment that prohibited the federal government from confiscating legally owned firearms during natural disasters. He supports killing unborn babies by any means necessary. He supports regulating and censoring video games. He is involved in banking and the Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac disaster.

    Mr. Schumer was the senator that leaked information about Washington Mutual that cause a run on the very well managed bank and it’s eventual demise. One assumes Washington Mutual wrote too may checks to Republicans and not enough to Democrats. Citibank wrote lots of checks to Democrats and was rewarded with billions in taxpayer dollars. Mr. Schumer is an extremely loyal fascist. Reward your corporations and destroy the opposition corporations. Very much in line with Hitler’s fascist corporate policies of the 1930’s.

    In foreign policy Schumer is a staunch supporter of Israel and could care less about the rest of the world. Schumer was instrumental in stopping the Dubai Ports deal that would have allowed Arab ownership of US ports. Good job Chuck. You got that right.

    During the bail outs Mr. Schumer was a stanch supporter of bailing out the Wall Street gang he and Secretary of the Treasury Paulson love to patronize. He was a staunch supporter of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac mortgage lending practices and is the author of this famous quote in 2005 “Fannie and Freddie have problems, and there are ideologues who want to undo them. But there are ways to fix the problems short of what’s been proposed. When the sink is broken, you don’t want to tear down the house.” Well actually Chuck the Republicans just wanted more oversight over Fannie and Freddie.

    Here is a clip of the new Propaganda Minister on Fox News acting as a man of the people. $350 billion of the $700 billion went to his buddies on Wall Street and none to the people. Expect more of this double speak in the coming years. He follows Goebbels EXACTLY. Look at Goebbels speeches. The movement is going forward, the regime is on the side of the people, the people will be better off and happy, sacrifices need to be made. And when the people made sacrifices where did the money go? Always to the regime and it’s corporate buddies. Fascism followed to perfection.

    I am impressed Chuck you truly are worthy of the role of Propaganda Minister in the coming years.

    As any good fascist in the past Schumer virulently opposes free speech and is a staunch supporter of the “Fairness Doctrine.” The Fairness Doctrine was a policy of the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC) that required the holders of broadcast licenses both to present controversial issues of public importance and to do so in a manner that was (in the Commission’s view) honest, equitable, and balanced.

    Ronald Reagan ended the policy and since then huge alternative sources of opinion and information have emerged. The most notable being the advent of conservative talk radio. The fairness doctrine would reduce talk radio to cult status by requiring equal time for non revenue producing liberal shows.

    goebbels_faceMr. Schumer is one of those smart fellows that think he literally know it all. That includes what companies you should patronize and what you should read. The comparisons between him and Joseph Goebbels the propaganda minister for the NAZI Regime are remarkable. The only difference between the two is Schumer is Jewish. Are Jews capable of masterminding such evil deeds? Ask the peasants who died by the millions under Stalin’s collectivization plans of the 1930’s. Einstein and other promenade Jews were strong supporters of communism and totalitarian regimes as longs as they and the relatives were the ones at top. Stalin enjoyed having the best and brightest surrounding him as he exterminated millions of unwanted people not contributing to the people’s revolution. Mr. Schumer seems very eager to fill this role for the Obama administration. He is more than eager to be the brains that destroyed capitalism and free speech in America.

    Your dead ancestors in Germany would be proud of you Chuck. What was it Chuck the second law of physics? For every action there is a reaction? You’re the valedictorian you tell me why Hitler was so anti communist and anti Jew Chucky.

    Hers is a clip of Schumer comparing free speech to pornography.

    At the end of this blog Chuck, Goebbels Principals of Propaganda are there for you in case you forgot them since your Harvard days. Keep the collectivist propaganda positive and minimize your opponents. Here Chuck is an example for you to copy and master as our new Propaganda Minister “The people want nothing to do with them. These Philistines are the 8/10 of one percent of the German people who have always said “no”, who always say “no” now, and who will always say “no” in the future. We cannot win them over, and do not even want to. They said “no” when Austria joined the Reich; they said “no” when the Sudetenland followed. They always say “no” as a matter of principle.” Joseph Goebbels 1938.

    But I see from the Fox interview you are quite capable of being positive about the regime and negative about your detractors. Maybe Goebbels will prove to be infeirior to your talents. You are another gift from God to us ignorant mortals. We should worship and obey your every command. You know it all and we should defer to your judgment of what is best for us and our families. We are at your command. Nothing more than protoplasm to be pushed, shoved, ordered and disposed of as you wish.

    Oops! sorry Mr. Schumer I am not a valedictorian like you. I am just a working stiff paying your bills. It was Newtons Third Law “To every action there is a equal and opposite reaction.” Watch out for that opposite reaction fascist. The communist is in the White House.

    • 2. Propaganda must be planned and executed by only one authority.
      1. It must issue all the propaganda directives.
      2. It must explain propaganda directives to important officials and maintain their morale.
      3. It must oversee other agencies’ activities which have propaganda consequences
    • 3. The propaganda consequences of an action must be considered in planning that action.
    • 4. Propaganda must affect the enemy’s policy and action.

      4. By making no reference to a desired enemy activity when any reference would discredit that activity
    • 5. Declassified, operational information must be available to implement a propaganda campaign
    • 6. To be perceived, propaganda must evoke the interest of an audience and must be transmitted through an attention-getting communications medium.
    • 7. Credibility alone must determine whether propaganda output should be true or false.
    • 8. The purpose, content and effectiveness of enemy propaganda; the strength and effects of an expose; and the nature of current propaganda campaigns determine whether enemy propaganda should be ignored or refuted.
    • 9. Credibility, intelligence, and the possible effects of communicating determine whether propaganda materials should be censored.
    • 10. Material from enemy propaganda may be utilized in operations when it helps diminish that enemy’s prestige or lends support to the propagandist’s own objective.
    • 11. Black rather than white propaganda may be employed when the latter is less credible or produces undesirable effects.
    • 12. Propaganda may be facilitated by leaders with prestige.

      3. They must be utilized again and again, but only in appropriate situations
      4. They must be boomerang-proof
    • 15. Propaganda to the home front must prevent the raising of false hopes which can be blasted by future events.
    • 16. Propaganda to the home front must create an optimum anxiety level.
      1. Propaganda must reinforce anxiety concerning the consequences of defeat
      2. Propaganda must diminish anxiety (other than concerning the consequences of defeat) which is too high and which cannot be reduced by people themselves
    • 17. Propaganda to the home front must diminish the impact of frustration.
      1. Inevitable frustrations must be anticipated
      2. Inevitable frustrations must be placed in perspective
    • 18. Propaganda must facilitate the displacement of aggression by specifying the targets for hatred.
    • 19. Propaganda cannot immediately affect strong counter-tendencies; instead it must offer some form of action or diversion, or both.

    Stop the thieving at taxpayers’ expense?

    March 20, 2009
    Posted by clinicalthinker @ 12:15 PM

    Stop the thieving at taxpayers’ expense? These words uttered by Charlie Rangel up on ethics charges for his own crookery? And then sponsoring a retroactive tax bill of 90% on bonus’ paid to AIG? The irony of the whole mess is staggering. The stupidity and ignorance of those who have commandeered the government is staggering to say the least.

    Why should ‘we the people’ care that this form of justice was whipped out of thin air by this group of daffed politicians? BECAUSE SUCH A LAW COULD INVOLVE YOU NEXT.

    The public is so ramped up over this AIG ‘bonus mess’ they fail to realize the Constitution is being breached again allowing a precedent which could well be used against ‘we the people’ on whim.

    I watched President Obama on Jay Leno last night.
    It was fun to watch. Barack Obama is charming, witty and personable. These attributes do not make him qualified to run the nation. It does however make him entertaining and a good guest for Leno.
    There seems to be a lot of flap about the ‘Special Olympics’ comment he made referring to his bowling score. I suggest its a tough world out there and people need to drop the thin skin and quit whining about POLITICAL CORRECTNESS.

    I have heard people shrilling that he needs to make an apology.
    WHAT A CROCK! It was simply a JOKE.
    There are far more serious things to snivel and whine over … THIS IS NOT ONE OF THEM.


    ACORN crooks at your door?

    Posted by clinicalthinker @ 21:37 PM

    We have all heard about the voter fraud committed by ACORN during our last election. This group has been under investigation for some time for embezzlement and voter fraud.

    So what is ACORN up to now?

    Wrap your mind around the 2010 census.
    How many fraudulent fake people are going to end up in the new census because someone wants an extra $6 an hour worth of work while they sit eating bon bons on the street corner somewhere instead of actually working for their money?

    How would you like some unsavory ACORN character knocking on your door asking all kinds of personal information?

    We the people have awakened to an indescribable mess in our government. Daily there are so many things uncovered it is hard to know what to address next.

    There is brewing an assault on the 2nd amendment … wake up everyone and be ready to stand up for your rights on this one.

    Love this!

    Next the brilliant idea that our Military needs to pay for its own medical?
    YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING!
    We ask our bravest to fight on foreign soil to keep these ASS HOLES in government safe and then do not want to take care of them? Again I say start the cutback in GOVERNMENT. STRIP THEM BACK TO WORKING IN THE GOVERNMENT ON THEIR OWN DIME.

    What a surprise when I turn on the news only to find a whole gaggle of congress people arguing whose fault the AIG debacle is. I was most appalled at watching the lower than pond scum Barney Frank rail about the bonuses given to AIG heads.

    HOW DARE HE?
    HOW DARE Chris Dodd open his fat mouth after taking THE BIGGEST KICK BACK from AIG with Barack Obama taking the 2nd largest KICK BACK.

    Yes I said KICK BACKS … lets call a spade a spade.

    I have had a suggestion for quite some time.
    EVERY LEADER IN WASHINGTON needs to give up their salary this year. They leap on their soapbox and feign indignation over the mass bailouts that were caused by their own failure. There is only one big change in DC and that is the change of President and Vice President … other than that we have pretty much the same pond scum in the House and Senate. EVERY ONE of them failed in their job. It’s time they stepped up to the plate and took responsibility. Starting with Frank and Dodd.

    The Democrats are not the only ones who need to be held accountable. The Republicans share equal responsibility.

    Let these businesses that are out on a limb FAIL … the sooner the better.

    Apparently Obama and crew are STUPID enough to believe all of us are MORE STUPID than they are. Do keep in mind there is a lot of difference between not paying attention to what is going on than being STUPID. Finally the GIANT is awakening and stupid it IS NOT. The outcry is simple ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

    I understand how difficult it is. Daily I say to myself what can I do? One thing at this point. Keep this growing blog going. As time goes on the same message will be echoed across the ether.

    Get your own Blog … they are free from WordPress.com. Connect to one another. Google is picking up these posts almost immediately. The more of us there are the more aware and informed we all become.

    Barack Obama and his cohorts in crime are busy raping the country and chaining the young to debt they will take years to pay off if they ever can. Next on the agenda is YOU THE CITIZEN are going to be hampered in gun ownership. Why should you care … for those that do not see the obvious?
    Take a little look back in history and see why its in your best interest to resist.

    Consider joining the NRA.
    You might also be interested in 1 website that thinks it their duty to post the names and addresses of people who have a license to carry a firearm. Totally stupid idea not to mention despicable. Details Here.

    Historical Gun Control Facts:

    1. In 1929, the Soviet Union established gun control. From 1929 to 1953, about 20 million dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
    2. In 1911, Turkey established gun control. From 1915 to 1917, 1.5 million Armenians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
    3. Germany established gun control in 1938 and from 1939 to 1945, a total of 13 million Jews and others who were unable to defend themselves were rounded up and exterminated.
    4. China established gun control in 1935. From 1948 to 1952, 20 million political dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
    5. Guatemala established gun control in 1964. From 1964 to 1981, 100,000 Mayan Indians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
    6. Uganda established gun control in 1970. From 1971 to 1979, 300,000 Christians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
    7. Cambodia established gun control in 1956. From 1975 to 1977, one million ‘educated’ people, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
    8. Defenseless people rounded up and exterminated in the 20th Century because of gun control: 56 million.

    It has now been 12 months since gun owners in Australia were forced by new law to surrender 640,381 personal firearms to be destroyed by their own government, a program costing Australia taxpayers more than $500 million dollars.. The first year results are now in: Australia-wide, homicides are up 3.2 percent: Australia-wide, assaults are up 8.6 percent
    Australia-wide, armed robberies are up 44 percent (yes, 44 percent)!

    In the state of Victoria alone, homicides with firearms are now up 300 percent. Note that while the law-abiding citizens turned them in, the criminals did not, and criminals still possess t heir guns!

    It will never happen here? I bet the Aussies said that too!

    While figures over the previous 25 years showed a steady decrease in armed robbery with firearms, this has changed drastically upward in the past 12 months, since criminals now are guaranteed that their prey is unarmed.

    There has also been a dramatic increase in break-ins and assaults of the ELDERLY. Australian politicians are at a loss to explain how public safety has decreased, after such monumental effort and expense was expended in successfully ridding Australian society of guns. The Australian experience and the other historical facts above prove it.

    You won’t see this data on the US evening news, or hear politicians disseminating this information.

    Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives and property and, yes, gun-control laws adversely affect only the law-abiding citizens.

    Take note my fellow Americans, before it’s too late!

    The next time someone talks in favor of gun control, please remind him of this history lesson..

    With Guns………..We Are ‘Citizens’. Without Them………We Are ‘Subjects’.

    During W.W.II the Japanese decided not to invade America because they knew most Americans were ARMED!

    Note: Admiral Yamamoto who crafted the attack on Pearl Harbor had attended Harvard U 1919-1921 & was Naval Attaché to the U. S. 1925-28. Most of our Navy was destroyed at Pearl Harbor & our Army had been deprived of funding & was ill prepared to defend the country.

    It was reported that when asked why Japan did not follow up the Pearl Harbor attack with an invasion of the U. S. Mainland, his reply was that he had lived in the U. S. & knew that almost all households had guns.


    “Nation of Cowards” by Eric Holder

    March 16, 2009
    Posted by Economics9698 @ 6:54 AM

    holderOur new affirmative action attorney general recently called Americans a “nation of cowards” because of our inability to directly confront race issues. True for the majority of white Americans but not all. No Mr. Holder I am one of the victims of the 1970’s bussing social engineering programs in Pontiac, Michigan and have never been nor will I ever be afraid to honestly discuss racial issues. I have seen racial issues first hand in my life and I will discuss them here and now as honestly as I can with you if you care to read this insipid little blog. But first for our readers a little background.

    Eric Holder grew up in the Bronx and attended Columbia for both his bachelors in history and law degree. History? He was Deputy Attorney General under Janet Reno. He was heavily involved in the expansion of the Kenneth Star investigations of Clinton and the pardon of financial fugitive Marc Rich. Holder supported pardons for Weather Underground fugitives Linda Evans and Susan Rosenberg, and clemency for 16 FALN terrorist.

    Most troubling to me Eric Holder was one of the members of the Clinton team that developed laws pertaining to computer security. The same law and thought process that stopped the FBI from investigating and downloading files from the “20th hijacker” Zacarias Moussaoui’s computer when he was arrested 4 weeks before 9-11. At the very least Mr. Holder has exhibited poor judgment clouded by radical political leanings. At the worst his poor judgment is indirectly responsible for millions of deaths and two wars that may have been prevented if the FBI would have been allowed to download those files in Zacarias Moussaoui’s computer. Either way his ideology is very narrow minded view of the world that is inflexible and some would say irrational.

    So let’s get down to the issue at hand a frank and honest discussion of race. First would be the most popular statistic about black families and that would be 70% of black children are born out of wedlock. That would compare to 42.6% for Hispanics and 26% for whites. A far cry from the Jim Crow days when only 23.5% of black children faced the world without a father. Also notable is the decline from the 1970’s in the birth rate for black mothers from 96 per 1,000 to 60.6. Now in this race discussion we have to ask ourselves what has changed since the Jim Crow days of the segregated nation to destroy the black and a lot of white families.

    Civil rights, the Great Society programs, increased welfare programs of every kind and scope from medical, housing, food, affirmative action, clothing and many I have no idea about. All designed to help the poor and Negros. And what is the effect of these programs? They replace the father as the provider of the family. It’s really a simple mathematical regression analysis problem. As the benefits increase to divorced and unwed mothers the more divorced and unwed mothers there will be. When welfare reform is passed like it was under Clinton penalizing indiscriminate breeding of children and Planned Parenthood clinics sprout up throughout the urban landscape like liquor billboards the benefit of large family’s decreases and fewer children are born. Simple regression analysis. My recommendation to restore the proper position of the black man as the head of the black family? End all government payments to unwed mothers. Do that and the black family will return to the zenith it enjoyed under the old evil segregated America. It’s really quite simple Mr. Holder.

    The second problem we see every night on every news cast across America is the black crime rate. Blacks make up 13% of the American population and are 49.4% of state prisoners. In comparison whites make up 66% of the population and make up 28.9% of the state prisoner population. Or to look at it another way white males are incarcerated at a rate of 4.4%, Hispanics 16.7% and blacks 28.6%. Why the disparity?

    Richard J. Herrnstein and Charles Murray had a frank discussion in 1994 about intelligence and race when they wrote The Bell Curve that must have been ignored by Mr. Holder and others in the elite circles of Washington. The book documented that crime was directly related to intelligence with other factors such as, surprise, the lack of a father in the home. The lower the IQ the more likely a person was to committee a crime. A pretty strait and direct correlation between low IQ and crime rates. Something every police man is familiar with, stupid criminals.

    Of course there was one up tick in the crime rate in their studies and that was at the super intelligent plus 130 IQ end of the curve. There seems to be quite an increase in crime among the super intelligent people among us. Bernie Madoff, Charles Schumer, Bernard Ebbers, Michael Milken and hundreds of other brilliant people seem to have the god complex where the rules just don’t apply to themselves. They feel their superior intellect puts them above the rest of us and they cause an otherwise steady and predictable decline in crime among higher intelligence people to suddenly spike up at the very end of the bell curve. But with the exception of that small group of 130 IQ people the correlation between intelligence and IQ is stunningly clear and quite linier.

    So Mr. Holder let’s really get this discussion down to the heart of the matter when it comes to race relations in this country. Blacks have an average IQ of 85 and whites 100. In the absence of genetic engineering and noting only 4.6% of blacks marry whites what can we do about it? Force white women to marry blacks? Inseminate all black women with white sperm? Let the discussion begin. As long as blacks are 15 IQ points lower than whites there will always be disparities in incomes and outcomes.

    So let me give Mr. Holder the rest of the story as Paul Harvey was fond of saying. I was bussed across town in Pontiac Michigan in the early 70’s. This happened when I was in the 5th grade. At first all the kids thought is was no big deal. Most of us were told black kids were the same as white kids. Why all the fuss? The fist few days the parents protested outside Will Rodgers Elementary but eventually they left. In the classroom we looked at each other somewhat amused at the teachers making such a fuss over kids of different colors sitting next to each other.

    As the novelty wore off the atmosphere slowly began to change. The occasional fight after school for fun and glory was replaced by a more prominent manifest among black students and their attitude toward white students. Slowly we began to realize that the black students had a “get even with whitey” attitude. They felt whites all had it great and had been cheating the black man for centuries. Quite puzzling to a lot of us lower income whites who received free lunches and bought groceries with food stamps. We thought we all got the same amount of food stamps but maybe the whites got more food stamps? What was that white privilege they were ranting about?

    Slowly the easy going fun atmosphere was replaced by tension and occasional outburst of violence. Blacks of superior strength were fond of getting behind smaller white classmates and giving them a good shove in the back walking down the hall to the next class. As time passed and familiarity increased the violence and intimidation increased.

    Which brings up the obvious question why was there bussing? Why would any decent society want to subject 10 year olds to a poor learning environment full of racial tension? Why would black parents want their children to be in a school full of academically superior students instead of their peers? Do black parents want their 10 year old to get an inferiority complex when it comes to academics at such an early age?

    I can completely and categorically say bussing was a disaster for Pontiac, the children and the state of Michigan. Michigan is more segregated today than it was in 1970. Any white parent when they have children think about one thing only, where are the blacks and where do I need to live so my child can escape those awful schools. The numbers back up these parents concerns. In Chicago an almost 100% Hispanic and black school district 508 students were murdered in a 16 month period. Running a school like a prison is not good for students, teachers or the administration. What sane parent wants that for their children?

    As the bussing experiment went on whites in Pontiac who didn’t initially move out slowly began to leave. The black on white intimidation and violence increased. The tension of going to school was the same tension you see in reality television shows like MSNBC Lockup where the film crew documents prison life. Educational standards dropped immediately with bussing. So did the grades of many white students. Many experimented with drugs to escape the drudgery and tension. Many got into fights. Everyday was like being in prison. You never knew which Negro or Negros group was going to snap and who would get jump or be forced to fight. The old teachers were slowly replaced with young ideological liberals looking to save the world believing in the dogma of the day. The administration was concerned about showing the social engineering was working and uninvolved in the classroom or the violent hallways.

    By the ninth grade, four years plus of the experiment, it was all starting to fall apart. Most of the students reading scores had declined, drugs, rape and violence were always prevalent. Classrooms were sitting around and do nothing affairs. The only thing taken seriously by students, staff and the administration was sports. With the influx of Negro athletes the football and basketball teams improved dramatically. By 1974 in Pontiac white flight was slowly progressing. Finally it became a stampede. Parents began to put their children first and ideology second. They moved out of the city in ever increasing numbers. Today Pontiac is 72% black and 12% white. The once majority white city is a welfare drug ridden reminder of a failed social experiment so many years a go.

    I look back at my four and a half years as time wasted in the classroom that cost me dearly latter on in life. I went into the 5th grade idealistic not having a care about race and came out in the 10th grade as a violent racist youth with a drug problem. Gays say that no one in their right mind would want to put up with the anti gay junk in our society if they were not truly gay. Likewise Mr. Holder for us “racist” who dare to speak the truth. I don’t enjoy having the knowledge I have acquired through reading and life experiences. I don’t like being ostracized by society. But I know what I know. I have a bachelors and masters. I know the facts both in the books and on the streets.

    So Mr. Holder why was I and thousands of other children subjected to violence, lower standards and intimidation? I moved to a 99% white school district in Rochester and it was like going from hell to heaven. Of course I was a complete social outcast but I didn’t care. These kids cared about learning and it was a safe environment. I didn’t have to worry about who was going to stab me or when the next gang brawl was. And I was 14 years old. So Mr. Holder look at a 14 year old kid and tell me is he or she prepared to deal with these life and death issues in a rational manner? Of course not so why would any public official in their right mind want to subject any kid to this environment?

    There was a reason for segregation. No one likes to talk about it. We all avoid it. To put it bluntly we are learning from hard experience what our fathers, grandfathers and great-grandfathers knew so many years ago. Oil and water don’t mix well and it never will. That’s the cold hard truth. If you can figure out a way to breed 100 IQ blacks then I am all for it. The only other way to make the races equal is to knock down white by any means necessary. And of course this has been the actions pursued by our politicians for decades.

    High taxes, poor schools, political indoctrination of our children, blame whitey mentality, socialism all designed to enslave working white people into some perverse reverse slavery envisioned by our affirmative action president.

    Thousands of other poor whites have been subjected to discrimination every time we encounter a government institution. In the military there were quotas on the number of whites who got this or that job. In college there were strict quotas on the amount of financial aid to whites. When applying for a job the government wants to know race so they can force these same businesses to discriminate against whites and force them to hire more minorities. White males have been singled out by every government agency everywhere as the ones to be denied this or that government benefit. After four years in the military the lesson was learned for myself. The government has never been for and will never be for poor whites. Success stories in America must come from other sectors. Poor white males need not apply.

    So Mr. Holder I hope you don’t think of me as a cowardly American. I have been honest and forthcoming. If you truly care about Negros and not just about finding excuses and reasons to continually playing on white guilt and enslaving white people with your socialist beliefs then here are a few suggestions to help black folks.

    • 1. End all government payments to unwed mothers. Do that and the unwed mother rate will drop 50% and you and your comrades will be social geniuses.
    • 2. End affirmative action. Every white guy who sees a black in power looks at them as a stupid idiot who benefited from affirmative action until proven otherwise. Examples of proven otherwise would be listening to Bill Cosby or Clarence Thomas talk in a highly intelligent thoughtful manner. Sorry to report but listening to Obama speak just reinforces my opinion of him that he’s a 95 IQ affirmative action president who rode his skin color to the White House. Sorry dude but that’s just the honest truth. And when I see a black doctor or lawyer I run and look for a Seventh Day Adventist doctor and a Jewish lawyer. Just the truth. Get rid of affirmative action and let the chips fall where they may.
    • 3. Legalize drugs and use the taxes to fund treatment and education programs. The war on drugs is a complete waste of time and money for both black and white communities. Time to end it.
    • 4. Stop trying to rip off whites with your socialist programs. You think we are all stupid guilt ridden zombies but the truth is we are over it and the backlash of blacks showing their ass to the nation for the last 40 years is about to come down hard. Take a good look at Texas and South Carolina. Succession and a second civil war are just around the corner. We will not be enslaved into being your bitch, working our ass off to pay for your fat black ass to bitch about whitey for the next 40 years.
    • 5. Stop bitching about the white man. Blacks in America have the highest standard of living anywhere in the world by far, no one even comes close. You want to live in Chad? Go for it. Just shut the hell up about slavery. Look dude we were all slaves at one time or another. Britons were slaves to the Romans. Italians were slaves to the Greeks. It happens. It’s been 144 years now. Time to move on or lets start another civil war.
    • 6. Stop trying to mix 85 IQ violent black students with 100 IQ white students. What happens? Pontiac, Michigan happens. We been there and done that. Try vouchers instead. Send all children to private schools like Barrack and Michelle Obama do. Birds of a feather flock together. If bussing had never occurred in Pontiac the city today would be much more diverse and the country much better off. Racism in Michigan is a fact of life for every parent there. They hid it using euphemism like “good school district” and such but when you get them drunk its more like “I would never send my kid to a nigger school. I would die before that happens.” The lessons of Pontiac and Flint are etched into the psyche of every parent in Michigan. Michael Moore fooled the rest of the nation in blaming the destruction of Flint on the demise of GM. Those of us who lived there know it was bussing that brought down Flint. Make no mistake Mr. Holder. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Something you would be wise to realize.

    And that is what a lot of white America thinks of black America. Not all. Most of white America has never experienced schools where gang violence runs ramped. Most attended nice suburban schools. They could care less about race and were happy Obama was elected never really understanding who or what Obama really stands for. Most have nice jobs and don’t want to be labeled racist. But for those of us who know the facts I guess we will end up on your enemies list to be dealt with. We know half of all blacks have an IQ of 85 or lower. We know low IQ and no father lead directly to jail. We know no social program will solve this uneven outcome. And we know of your perverse form of reverse slavery disguised as equality and socialism will fail and lead to civil war. Is that honest enough Mr. Holder?


    Justice Dept. Investigates Arizona Sheriff for Enforcing Immigration Law

    March 15, 2009
    Posted by clinicalthinker @ 13:40 PM

    Joe Arpaio a hero!

    It is no surprise that upholding the law is a problem for Washington. Could it simply be a ploy to keep the citizenry focused on something other than putting those in the hoos cow who are actually responsible for the mess this country is in today. Note that John Conyers is one of the leaders of the pack. This guy deserves tar and feathering in the public square. ACORN? Shouldn’t they be shut down by now for the shenanigans they pulled in this last election?

    Everyone needs to take a moment and send a THANK YOU NOTE to Arpaio for his due diligence in this matter.

    Thursday, March 12, 2009
    By Penny Starr, Senior Staff Writer

    Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, left, orders approximately 200 convicted illegal immigrants handcuffed together and moved into a separate area of Tent City, inmates behind Arpaio, for incarceration until their sentences are served and they are deported to their home countries Wednesday, Feb. 4, 2009, in Phoenix.
    (CNSNews.com) -- The Department of Justice (DOJ) has launched an investigation of the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office in Arizona following requests by congressional Democrats and allegations by liberal activists that the department has violated the civil rights of illegal aliens.

    Reps. John Conyers (D-Mich.), Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.), Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.), and Robert Scott (D-Va.) requested the investigation, and activists groups such as National Day Laborer Organizer Network and ACORN launched petition drives and rallies in support of the probe.

    The investigation focuses on Sheriff Joe Arpaio and dozens of officers under his command who were trained through the Department of Homeland Security’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Agreements of Cooperation in Communities to Enhance Safety and Security (ACCESS), which partners federal and local law enforcement to enforce immigration laws. (The Homeland Security’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement division is known popularly as ICE.)

    In a letter dated March 10, 2009, Loretta Smith, acting assistant attorney general at the DOJ, detailed what her department would be investigating:

    “This is to inform you that the United States Department of Justice is commencing an investigation of the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office (”MCSO”) pursuant to the pattern or practice provisions of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994,42 U.S.C. §14141 (“Section 14141″) and the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968,42 U.S.C. § 3789d (“Safe Streets Act”), and pursuant to the prohibitions against national origin discrimination in Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964,42 U.S.C. §§ 2000d to 2000d-7 (“Title Yr’) and the Safe Streets Act, 42 U.S.C. § 3789d(c).”

    The letter continues: “The investigation will focus on alleged patterns or practices of discriminatory police practices and unconstitutional searches and seizures conducted by the MCSO, and on allegations of national origin discrimination, including failure to provide meaningful access to MCSO services for limited English proficient (LEP) individuals.”

    “In conducting the investigation, we will seek to determine whether there are violations of the above laws by the MCSO,” the letter says.

    Sheriff Arpaio’s efforts to enforce immigration laws have been the focus of previous criticism, but Arpaio has defended his department and the results his ICE-trained officers have netted.

    Concerning the DOJ’s investigation, Arpaio told CNSNews.com: “I will not back down. What I am doing is upholding the laws of the state of Arizona, and I will not be persuaded to turn my back on my oath of office as sheriff of this county.”

    In an August 2008 press release, Arpaio’s office detailed those results.

    “While the Sheriff’s illegal immigration and human smuggling operations conducted on the streets and roadways here have netted nearly 2,300 arrests, another very successful effort to locate illegal aliens has been quietly happening inside Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s jails,” the release said.

    It continues: “Despite the growing criticism of the Sheriff’s illegal immigration fight by some valley politicians and activists, Sheriff Arpaio says 60 detention officers trained by ICE officials have conducted over 106,000 interviews and investigations of inmates booked into jail since April of 2007.

    “In those 18 months, 16,000 inmates were determined to be illegal aliens. Either they have already been deported or will be deported after being tried and/or serving their sentences for crimes committed in the valley. The work being done be Arpaio’s detention staff is a likely contributor to the recent reduction in crime in the valley,” the press release added.

    “That number of 16,000 represents a full one-third (1/3) of all inmates in the United States who have had holds placed on them after being identified by jail or prison officials as illegal aliens.”

    The press release goes on to say that 20 percent of inmates in the Maricopa County Jail are illegal aliens and that of those, 2,000 illegal aliens -- 70 percent -- were arrested for felony crimes.

    Those felony crimes committed included the following: forgery, 12 percent; kidnapping, 10 percent; aggravated assault, 7 percent; driving under the influence, 7 percent; drug charges, 27 percent; robbery, 3 percent; murder, 3 percent; and theft, 4 percent.

    The Democratic Congress members have also asked Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano to launch an investigation into the training provided by ICE.


    The American Tea Party!

    March 15, 2009
    Posted by clinicalthinker @ 12:05 PM

    teaparty " I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corprorations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered"
    THOMAS JEFFERSON 1802

    I got the below email from a friend today.
    It is a great idea … one I will certainly also do.
    Personally I think the government is to far gone to listen but it is worth a try before cannons are actually pulled into place. I further believe those in government are dumb enough to think the public is simply going to roll over and play dead while they (the government) rapes the people they are suppose to serve while feathering their own nest with money and power.

    EMAIL:

    There’s a storm a brewin’.
    What happens when good, responsible people keep quiet?
    Washington has forgotten they work for us.
    We don’t work for them.
    Throwing good money after bad is NOT the answer.
    I am sick of the midnight, closed door sessions to come up with a plan.
    I am sick of Congress raking CEO’s over the coals while they, themselves, have defaulted on their taxes.
    I am sick of the bailed out companies having lavish vacations and retreats on my dollar.
    I am sick of being told it is MY responsibility to rescue people that, knowingly, bought more house than they could afford. I am sick of being made to feel it is my patriotic duty to pay MORE taxes.
    I, like all of you, am a responsible citizen.
    I pay my taxes.
    I live on a budget and I don’t ask someone else to carry the burden for poor decisions I may make.
    I have emailed my congressmen and senators asking them to NOT vote for the stimulus package as it was written without reading it first and making good common sense decisions. Not enough listened. They voted for it, pork and all.

    O.K. folks, here it is. You may think you are just one voice and what you think won’t make a difference. Well, yes it will and YES, WE CAN!!

    If you are disgusted and angry with the way Washington is handling our taxes.
    If you are fearful of the fallout from the reckless spending of Hundreds of BILLIONS to bailout and “stimulate” without accountability and responsibility then we need to become ONE, LOUD VOICE THAT CAN BE HEARD FROM EVERY CITY, TOWN, SUBURB AND HOME IN AMERICA. There is a growing protest to demand that Congress, the President and his cabinet LISTEN to us, the American Citizens. What is being done in Washington is NOT the way to handle the economic free fall.

    So, here’s the plan. On April 1, 2009, all Americans are asked to send a NOTE WITH THE WORD TEABAG written on it to Washington, D.C. You do not have to enclose any other information unless you so desire, just a TEABAG NOTE. Many cities are organizing protests. If you simply search, “New American Tea Party”, several sites will come up. If you aren’t the ‘protester’ type, simply make your one voice heard with a TEABAG NOTE. Your one voice will become a roar when joined with millions of others that feel the same way. Yes, something needs to be done but the lack of confidence as shown by the steady decline in the stock market speaks volumes.

    This was not my idea. I visited the sites of the ‘New American Tea Party’ and an online survey showed over 90% of thousands said they would send the teabag on April 1. Why, April 1?? We want them to reach Washington by April 15. Will you do it? I will.

    Why not send an actual TEABAG? Because it more than likely will not be opened or simply tossed in the trash.

    Send it to:
    Barack Obama
    1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
    Washington, D.C. 20500

    Attention: Teabag Protest

    Spread the word.
    I would encourage everyone to go ahead and get the envelope ready to mail, and just drop it in the mail April 1. Can’t guarantee what the postage will be by then, it is going up as we speak, but have your envelope ready. What will this cost you? It will cost a little time, a teabag, and a 40 something cent stamp.


    Who has a right to know you have a license to carry a firearm?

    March 14, 2009
    Posted by clinicalthinker @ 20:18 PM

    I ran across this today and was stunned. There are some pretty stupid people out there but this for all of the obvious reasons is one of the more stupid ideas I have yet to run across.

    I took the time to visit the Commercial-Appeal website … find their contact form and send them the comment posted at the bottom of this article.
    You might want to do the same HERE.

    The mainstream media wants us to believe that your Right-to-Carry license should be public information, printed and published online for all the world to see. The latest paper to do this is the Commercial-Appeal in Memphis, but they’re not the first and I doubt they’ll be the last. Why on earth reporters and editors want to do something so shameful, so irresponsible and so hateful is beyond me.

    You know, normal people don’t get up in the morning and say, “I wonder if my doctor has a Right-to-Carry license?” They don’t wonder, “Is my accountant a Right-to-Carry holder?” They don’t ask because they don’t think about it. The point of legally carrying a concealed firearm is to conceal that. Not because we’re ashamed or afraid, but because it’s nobody’s business.

    More and more states are cutting off the media’s access to this information. Virginia sent a bill to Governor Kaine that would bar the media from getting access to the information from the State Police. Arkansas is doing the same thing. And I’m happy to report that Tennessee’s legislature is also considering a bill that would prevent the Commercial-Appeal or any other paper from gaining access to the names of Right-to-Carry holders.

    The newspaper standard used to be “all the news that’s fit to print.” Being a Right-to-Carry holder is no more newsworthy than having a driver’s license. If the newspapers really wanted to perform a public service, they’d worry less about the law-abiding and start printing the full criminal record of every person arrested for a violent crime.

    Consider joining the NRA.

    Comment to Commercial-Appeal:

    Your idea of posting the names, addresses etc. of people who are licensed to carry firearms is not only despicable it is downright stupid.

    Perhaps we bloggers need to get the personal information for all executives at your firm and post it on the internet for the world to see along with your policy on this matter.


    Tiger Woods a man apart.

    tiger-woods

    On 18 January 2009, golfer Tiger Woods gave the speech quoted below at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. during the HBO-televised “We Are One” event held as part of the lead-up to Barack Obama’s presidential inauguration two days later. The PGA Tour web site displays the full text of Tiger Woods’ speech, as does Woods’ own web site (look for the 18 January item in the News Archive).

    Tiger Woods received a special invitation to speak at the inauguration. His inviters were stunned, when he did not deliver the message they expected. You will see why the media swept it under the rug with no further ado. Below is the text of his speech, entitled:

    “You’ll Never Walk Alone,” as posted on his Web site:

    “I grew up in a military family – and my role models in life were my Mom and Dad, Lt. Colonel Earl Woods. My dad was a Special Forces operator and many nights friends would visit our home. They represented every branch of the service, and every rank.

    “In my Dad, and in those guests, I saw first hand the dedication and commitment of those who serve. They come from every walk of life. From every part of our country. Time and again, across generations, they have defended our safety in the dark of night and far from home.

    “Each day — and particularly on this historic day — we honor the men and women in uniform who serve our country and protect our freedom. They travel to the dangerous corners of the world, and we must remember that for every person who is in uniform, there are families who wait for them to come home safely.

    “I am honored that the military is such an important part, not just of my personal life, but of my professional one as well. The golf tournament we do each year here in Washington is a testament to those unsung heroes.

    “I am the son of a man who dedicated his life to his country, family and the military, and I am a better person for it.

    “In the summer of 1864, Abraham Lincoln, the man at whose memorial we stand, spoke to the 164th Ohio Regiment and said: ‘I am greatly obliged to you, and to all who have come forward at the call of their country.’

    “Just as they have stood tall for our country – we must always stand by and support the men and women in uniform and their families.

    “Thank you, and it is now my pleasure to introduce the US Naval Glee Club.”

    FOOTNOTE:
    I have never been more proud of Tiger Woods than when I heard his 2-minute tribute to the military at the Inaugural Celebration in Washington DC . You know he was greatly pressured to be there. Liberals have been mad at him for a decade for not joining their ranks. You know he didn’t want to be there. So instead of paying homage to Obama, he
    paid tribute to our soldiers. Not one time did Tiger mention Obama, the inauguration or the new administration. He knew beforehand that his love for America, and appreciation for our military men & women would anger them further. But Tiger is his own man; his father taught him to be his own man.

    Somewhere over that cold, gray Washington sky, old Earl Woods was smiling down on his beloved son. And there will be one more crying hug waiting for Tiger when he passes through the Pearly Gates into God’s arms.

    The clod in the Whitehouse.

    March 11, 2009
    Posted by clinicalthinker @ 9:01 AM

    Apparently peace as I know it is over.
    After all these years of getting up in the morning to face a sunshiny day and do the fun things in life I am faced with 100 equally “nationally destructive” reports out of Washington.

    In my mind there are only 2 reasons.
    1. The current President is totally daffed.
    2. The main stream media was a miserable flop (all reporters need to get a pink slip immediately) in reporting the TRUTH.

    Well I suppose it could be a combination of both.
    Why do I have this perpetual image of Obama slumping in a striped wing back chair like Raggedy Andy while being interviewed?
    Why does he stutter and stammer during live questioning.
    What happened to the eloquent genius?
    Holy smoke was all of that fake too?

    Now the clod in the Whitehouse has been foolish enough to give 25 DVDs as a return gift to an English dignitary? What was he thinking? Oh I know … he was not!
    What was the argument against Sarah Palin? She was not prepared?
    Well at least we get to see the definition of ill prepared first hand now.
    Hopefully the nation will survive.

    If all of this was not so serious for our country it honestly would be drop dead funny.

    baye

    It is still my belief that there are a few good politicians left in Washington. Finally a few of the good Democrats are beginning to surface.

    Evan Bayh of Indiana is one of them.

    Here is what he has to say about the situation.


    Wikipedia truth or lie?

    March 10, 2009
    Posted by clinicalthinker @ 17:15 PM

    It seems with the advent of online information at our fingertips and the great browsers being offered knowledge abounds. It use to be if you wanted information you went to school, the library or Encyclopedia. Those of us who have lived long enough have wondered JUST HOW is our history being rewritten. Are there even history books used for grade and high school any longer? And if so written by who and with what personal spin. More than that have any of these writers even been around long enough to know the truth and what are they using as reference to write?

    On the internet scene springs Wikipedia. For those of you not familiar it is a collective of subject matter. ANYONE can become a member and write about anyone or anything. So how accurate and reliable is the information? Not very. Who gets to post what? I wanted to add information to Wiki so I signed up as a member. What I wrote apparently was not acceptable even though it was my own information and was in the format they requested.

    Of late Wiki is deleting ANY information entered about the true history of Barack Obama. Apparently the powers that be at Wiki are not really interested in the whole truth nothing but the truth.

    You can get more information about the Obama matter HERE

    I have known for a while there were problems with Wiki and it was reinforced the other day when I bumped into a young radical who pointed the forum toward Wiki to support his “libertarian socialist” agenda. During this debate between the 2 of us it was clear these young students are being indoctrinated by the hard left liberals promoting anarchy.

    It is fortunate that most “young whites” really do not have the true stomach to pick up a weapon and fight for much of anything. They prefer to leap on a soapbox and snivel and whine about the unjust circumstances of the world. Unjust circumstance that is CAUSED BY CAPITALISM according to those who lead them astray.

    I had not heard the names Chomsky or Bookchin in a very long time so I ran a youtube search and found a debate between Buckley an Chomsky. It does give you an idea of why the young might be drawn to Utopia. It also gives a mature mind the reasons why Utopia simply does not work. Apparently the logic of “If you stand for nothing the result is NOTHING” does not compute for the young and those who wish to control them. Unfortunately the result of hundreds and thousands of dollars worth of education results in a large percent of R2D2s floating around campuses.

    Glen Beck is Wrong About Economist

    March 9, 2009
    Posted by Economics9698 @ 19:52 PM

    glenn-beckRadio and now television personality Glen Beck has recently grown fond of ridiculing economist who in recent years have made some really dumb predictions. The type of economist Beck likes to lampoon generally comes from government such as the Securities and Exchange Commission or private corporations or associations like the housing industry. Beck quotes one of the bought and paid for economist from say 2005 predicting the housing boom will last forever then smears all economist as dumb worthless boneheads. Well I guess it’s my time to come to the defense of economist so here goes.

    Economists are like any business degree. Economics is one of a group of business degrees that include accounting, finance, marketing and so forth. Economist want the nice cushy job with the fat spending account just like anyone. So when Mr. Pump up housing prices association man offers young bright economist from proper university a sweet job Mr. Young Economist will search and search his massive educational and mathematical knowledge to give the boss what the boss wants. No surprise there. But if economists are trained in the “truth” then how do they get so far away from it?

    The first little dirty secret is justifying economic distortions and sometimes outright robbery with the Pareto efficiency, or Pareto optimality. This little concept is an important concept used by millions of economist to justify social engineering. It is used in economics with broad applications in game theory, engineering and the social sciences.
    Given a set of alternative allocations of, say, goods or income for a set of individuals, a change from one allocation to another that can make at least one individual better off without making any other individual worse off is called a Pareto improvement. And there you have it. The magical gateway drug economist the world over to justify some special treatment for their industry or political point of view. Similar to congressmen and women justifying their special pork projects as beneficial and hey it’s only a few million here and there. Of course the problem is a few million here and there, a few million special programs here and there, then a few tax breaks here and there and pretty soon add up into a huge headache and is anything but a Pareto improvement. More like a Pareto pain in the ass and drag on the wallet.

    office-spaceThis concept is captured quite accurately in the movie Office Space where the disgruntled workers Peter Gibbons, Michael Bolton, Joanna and Samir devise a scheme to only take fractions of pennies from corporate accounts on the assumption that no one will notice and no one will get hurt while they get rich. Here is some commentary from the hilarious movie:

    samir-and-michael-bolton bill-lumbergh peter

    Peter Gibbons explaining the corporate account skimming as equivalent to: “Um, the 7-Eleven, right? You take a penny from the tray.”

    Joanna: From the crippled children?

    Peter Gibbons: No, that’s the jar. I’m talking about the tray, the pennies for everybody.

    Eventually the scam ends up into an enormous very obvious corporate swindle forcing the mastermind Peter Gibbons to admit “You know, corporate accounting is sure as hell gonna notice $305,326.13, Michael!”

    The Pareto effect put to use in the movie Office Space with hilarious consequences. Unfortunately in the real world we all pay for these little improvements in the form of higher taxes, higher consumer prices, and distorting income tax corporate and personal laws that do not allocate resources efficiently. In other words Mr. Beck its hogwash designed to sooth the minds of economist justifying the very types of abuses they were taught not to inflict on other humans.

    What do economists know? The best tax is a simple flat or fair tax. Corporate taxes are nothing more than a tax on people, investment or dividends. Corporate taxes are a complete waste of time and resources if for no other reason than people end up paying the tax in one form or another. Capital gains taxes are a waste of time and money. Do we really want to tax capital formation? Pretty illogical when you think about it. I personally want my employer to raise and invest capital. It means higher productivity and higher wages.

    So if I were advising Obama and I wanted energy cap and trade, socialized medicine, social security, Medicaid, Medicare, welfare and all the rest of the goodies? I would tell him is unrealistic but if he was hell bent on pursuing the madness the cut corporate and capital gains taxes to zero, raise personal taxes for those making over $1 million to 50% and cut tariffs to zero. Simplify the tax code to a progressive flat tax and eliminate payroll taxes. This flies in the face of his communist upbringing and education. Clearly it would strengthen segments of private industry. So Obama would reject it.

    So what does Obama really want Mr. Beck? The bail outs are designed to reward friends and inflate the currency making huge segments of the population dependent on the federal government. Inflation wipes out seniors and the middle class first then works it was up. The idea is to have just a very few very wealthy capitalist at the top that will cow tow to the whims of the federal government much the same as in fascist Germany from 1933 to 1945. Same old same old to an economist.
    Obama is a communist by upbringing and education. He clearly believed in Marxism and all its tenets. If he had the power he would implement communism overnight. His problem is the capitalist are to strong in America. Everyday the Dow Jones drops is another day people become agitated with his brainless economic policies. He is rapidly running out of good will. 10% unemployment is just around the corner and as more people lose their jobs pride in the messiah will turn to anger and contempt. People cursed Jesus and they will curse Obama. The magic carpet ride will soon crash.

    Obama knows it. His communist brain boy David Axelrod knows it. And the deals with the capitalist pigs like GE will be made. And the legacy of the communist Obama someday will be as a fascist. Just like Hitler and Mercedes Benz. How ironic that for all these years Democrats have been accusing Republicans of being fascist and our first true fascist government will have been consummated by none other than an affirmative action half Negro communist. How appropriate.
    So Mr. Beck we economist do know economics. We know more than you do what is going on and how it is being accomplished. Some of us are communist like former Nobel Prize winners Leonid Vitaliyevich Kantorovich and Tjalling C. Koopmans. Some are fascist like Nobel Prize winning economist Paul Krugman of the New York Times and some are libertarians like Milton Freidman.

    What truly astonishes most of us is the utter ignorance the American public has of even the most basic concepts of what is in their best interest. We see year after year, decade after decade politicians exploit people ignorance on a wide rage of issues like school choice, social security, Medicaid and Medicare, welfare, work rules. Some of us year after year try to inform people of why and how this or that works for or against them and year after year we are ignored or worse made pariahs in the business community. I mean what farmers organization is going to hire an economist who argues against farm subsidies? And there you have it. We try to inform people but are shut out by politicians and the media who don’t want to listen. And we need to feed our families. So we compromise and do what we have to do.

    I would ask you Mr. Beck to invite Senior Fellow at the CATO Institute Dan Mitchell to your show as often as you can to explain economics. Mr. Mitchell is a wonderful man who is very honest in his economic analysis. And if you pressed him really hard I bet he would give you some very accurate predictions of what will happen in the future to our country if Obama’s economic policies are implemented.

    So Mr. Beck lighten up on the economist. We are just guys and gals like you trying to make a living fighting the ignorance and dogma of the day just like you. Show us some love once in awhile dude.


    The Obama’s party while Rome burns?

    March 8, 2009
    Posted by clinicalthinker @ 22:13 PM

    We all saw the lavish inauguration to the tune of about 170 million dollars. That seemed to be fine with all of the liberals who bellyached for months over the pittance in comparison for the Bush bash.

    Apparently the beat goes on.
    Only now the government is on the verge of bankruptcy.
    People are losing jobs in record numbers.
    The stock market tanks daily.
    Home foreclosures are skyrocketing faster than record keepers can track.

    At the Whitehouse they certainly do not want to miss a party opportunity … is that something like we do not want to waste a good crisis? All of this on the back of the taxpayer under the guise of governmental business? Still Obama takes every opportunity to leap on his soapbox and castigate others for wasteful spending.

    No wonder Obama is looking a little haggard.
    Apparently it is not only the business of the day but the party, party of the nights as well.

    White House nightlife under investigation
    ‘This party atmosphere sends the wrong message’

    supserbowlBy Bob Unruh

    An organization that serves as a watchdog on the U.S. government for American taxpayers has launched a campaign to uncover exactly how much tax money is being spent on parties at the Obama White House.

    The president has shown a penchant for lavish galas, such as the huge assembly orchestrated in Denver when he accepted his party’s nomination for president – an outdoor gathering for some 75,000 featuring a stage with Greek columns. He also held a multimillion-dollar victory celebration in Chicago, and his fancy inauguration cost an estimated $170 million, according to ABC News.

    Now, Larry Klayman, founder of Freedom Watch, told WND today he’s seeking information about the partying in the White House since the Obamas moved in.

    “Barack and Michelle Obama have been throwing taxpayer funded parties nearly every night with their ‘friends’ and supporters, with Michelle Obama even exhorting them not to ‘break’ White House property,” Klayman’s announcement said.

    “This party atmosphere sends the wrong message to the American people. As the Obama-Clinton crowd party on, the American people are suffering greatly,” Klayman said.

    “It was right to criticize corporate execs for using taxpayer bailout money on bonuses and corporate junkets. In the face of this criticism, it is an outrage for Barack and Michelle Obama to party on, as Rome burns. It’s like throwing a party at a funeral,” he said.

    the rest of the story …


    Has the Reigning Ruler lost his reins?

    March 7, 2009
    Posted by clinicalthinker @ 21:32 PM

    Has the Reigning Ruler lost his reins or better yet his mind?

    You can tell the Washington powers that be are on the verge of havoc. When the latest tactic is to try and throw a monkey wrench into the middle of a growing conservative interest (Rush Limbaugh) in order to distract from the failing business at hand (the ECONOMY) it is a sure sign there is trouble in the magic kingdom.

    What?
    How can this be … they scream, cuss and whine?
    There are those in the public more than willing to foist the total blame on Reid and Pelosi but the truth is our brand new esteemed leader could have put a real stop to all of this early on. He CHOSE NOT!

    Barack Obama has made a real place in history which is … he is the WORST PRESIDENT … in our written history to take office yet. He can boast like no other that so far EVERY TIME he takes to the media podium the stock market takes a further dive like a stone plunged into a deep dark well. If he continues to speak (eloquent as he might be) we will no doubt see the market struggling at 3300 shortly.

    NOOOOOOOOO! You all yell?
    What exactly do you expect?
    Certainly I am not the sharpest pencil around but common sense tells me one thing. Any sane person is not willing to plunk their dwindling life savings into a market fraught with business that is turning out to be corrupt to the core along with the politicians on the take to cover it all up.

    Who so far benefits from all of this bailout?
    You, me … anyone you know that is middle class?
    Are we fools to think someday SOMEONE is going to come through on a hollow promise?
    A promise anyone with more than 2 brain cells moving in tandem would know was a blatant lie out of the chute.

    I have noticed of late the arrogant narcissistic spring seems to have left the man who commands the Whitehouse today. Do you suppose it is beginning to dawn on him how quickly the tide can turn. It makes me laugh out loud to watch those who were screaming and yelling at GW Bush every nano second are now on the receiving end.

    I find it more than ironic to reflect on those who said Sarah Palin had no creds to help run a Whitehouse. HO HO HO … well clearly neither did Barack Obama. In fact I would be willing to bet the deed on my PAID FOR house she WOULD NEVER have done this bad. Unfortunate she was not running against Obama head to head we just might have seen a far different outcome to all of this.

    Confidence in our leaders is shot and the market shows it so fasten your seat belts people because it will be a long time for new business to crop up that makes investors confident enough to place their hard earned money into unknown hands. In the mean time … what does one do? BUY GOLD and SILVER comes to mind. If not that make sure you have an adequate pantry just in case.

    Then this week we see the infamous Ward Churchill is visiting Colorado University on a speaking engagement.
    I must admit I know little about him other than what I have heard on the MSM. I decided since the MSM has gone to pot in the last few months and shown themselves to be less than credible and more along the lines of lying through their teeth or to be kind ignorant of real fact. I wanted to see for myself what was up with the philosophical bent of this man.

    Do keep in mind I am a 100% advocate of free speech.
    No matter what this man has as a belief system I stand behind his right to leap on a soap box and spout it until the cows come home.

    You too now have an opportunity to listen and make up your own mind.
    Keep in mind we find ourselves in this situation today because we were swayed by someone else’s opinion. Were we simply to lazy to research for ourselves?

    Pay attention to the question from the interviewer to Russell Means (AIM member and Lawyer) and his answer to her about Ward Churchill’s questioned claims of being American Indian.

    Over the years I have found it astounding how quickly claimed tribe members have been culled from tribes when the divvy of Casino money becomes involved.

    Apparently who is a member and who is not IS NOT determined by blood but more like the US Government’s tactic of who you like and for whatever reason.


    Olbermann’s plastic ivy

    March 5, 2009
    Posted by clinicalthinker @ 20:10 PM

    I know how so many people rant and rave about Ann Coulter and how abrasive she can be. All of that is true. But personally I love her. She is bright, witty, but most of all NEVER succumbs to the crap foisted her way.

    I have long thought the Republicans who sat idle while the Democrats threw mud on EVERYONE for the slightest thing were cowards. It’s kind of like the bully beating up the little guy and everyone doing nothing. COWARDLY and STUPID are the words that pop into my mind.

    Onto the scene walks Ann Coulter picks up the gauntlet and starts firing back. OH MY the snivels, whines, shrieks and wails that arise in the wake of her presence.

    Her latest column on Keith Olbermanm caused me to roll on the floor laughing. I do not watch his network … the few times I caught him only a nano second passed when I realized he flat lies. One significant time he was telling his audience what someone had said while the words of that person were posted on a split screen. Since neither his words or meaning matched that of the person who said them … it was clear Olberman figured the mass failed reading 101 or maybe he simply thought no one but the hearing impaired read the screen at all.

    I came away with two thoughts.
    DOES HE CARE HE JUST EXPOSED HIMSELF AS A BLATANT LIAR?
    HOW STUPID IS THIS GUY?

    After reading the Coulter piece yesterday … apparently more stupid that he hopes the public will ever know.

    I could not resist posting it here for all of you to enjoy also.

    anncoulterFortunately, we have Keith Olbermann to point out that Rush Limbaugh did not accurately quote the Preamble to the Constitution in his CPAC speech last weekend. I’m not sure what scam Olbermann imagined Rush was trying to put over on the American people by saying conservatives believed in the “Preamble to the Constitution” and then quoting words from the Declaration of Independence – but Olbermann put an end to that cruel deception!

    These small-time opportunities to show off by correcting someone else’s teeny-tiny mistakes are the lifeblood of Olbermann’s MSNBC show, “Countdown.” Olbermann is no more capable of not correcting Rep. Charlie Rangel when he said “inferred,” but meant “implied,” than an obsessive compulsive could pass a sink without washing his hands.

    There is utterly no purpose to these lame “gotchas,” except that Olbermann is so desperately insecure that he is willing to waste valuable airtime to convince other status-conscious idiots that he is, like, scary-smart.

    Olbermann relentlessly attacked low-level Bush administration employee Monica Goodling for not going to a name-dropping college, saying – approximately 1 million times – that she got her law degree “by sending 100 box tops to Religious Lunatic University.”

    olbermannI would venture to say that the students at Goodling’s law school at Regent University are far more impressive than those at the Cornell agriculture school – the land-grant, non-Ivy League school Keith attended.

    I wouldn’t mention it, except that Olbermann savages anyone who didn’t go to an impressive college. As it happens, he didn’t go to an impressive college, either.

    If you’ve ever watched any three nights of his show, you know that Olbermann went to Cornell. But he always forgets to mention that he went to the school that offers classes in milking and bovine management.

    Indeed, Keith is constantly lying about his nonexistent “Ivy League” education, boasting to Playboy magazine, for example: “My Ivy League education taught me how to cut corners, skim books and take an idea and write 15 pages on it, and also how to work all day at the Cornell radio station and never actually go to class.”

    Except Keith didn’t go to the Ivy League Cornell; he went to the Old MacDonald Cornell.

    The real Cornell, the School of Arts and Sciences (average SAT: 1,325; acceptance rate: 1 in 6 applicants), is the only Ivy League school at Cornell and the only one that grants a bachelor of arts degree.

    cornell-llamaKeith went to an affiliated state college at Cornell, the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences (average SAT: about that of pulling guards at the University of South Carolina; acceptance rate: 1 of every 1.01 applicants).

    Olbermann’s incessant lying about having an “Ivy League education” when he went to the non-Ivy League ag school at Cornell would be like a graduate of the Yale locksmithing school boasting about being a “Yale man.”

    Among the graduates of the Ivy League Cornell are Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Thomas Pynchon, Paul Wolfowitz, E.B. White, Sanford I. Weill, Floyd Abrams, Kurt Vonnegut, Douglas Ginsburg, Janet Reno, Henry Heimlich and Harold Bloom.

    Graduates of the ag school include David LeNeveu of the Anaheim Ducks, Mitch Carefoot of the Phoenix RoadRunners, Darren Eliot, former professional hockey player and Joe Nieuwendyk, multiple Stanley Cup winner.

    One begins to understand why Harvard students threw a chicken on the ice during Cornell’s famous rout of Harvard at a 1973 hockey game.

    If you actually want to pursue a career related to agriculture, there is no better school than the Cornell ag school. I have nothing but admiration for the farmers and aspiring veterinarians at the ag school. They didn’t go there just to have “Cornell” on their resumes.

    In addition to the farmers, there are some smart kids who go to the ag school – as there are at all state universities. But most people who majored in “communications” at an ag school don’t act like Marshall Scholars or go around mocking graduates of Regent University Law School.

    The sort of insecurity that would force you to always say “trebled” instead of “tripled” could only come from a communications major with massive status anxiety, like Keith. Without even looking it up, I am confident that Harvard, Yale and Princeton do not offer degrees in “communications.” I know there is no “communications” major at the Ivy League Cornell.

    “Communications” is a major, along with “recreation science,” most commonly associated with linemen at USC. But at least the linemen can throw a football, which Keith cannot because his mother decided he was not physically robust enough to play outdoors as a child.

    It may seem cruel to reveal the true college of someone who already wakes up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat worried that he’s a fraud. But I believe that by pointing out that Olbermann actually is a fraud, I am liberating him.

    You may not realize it now, Keith, but you will look back on this day and say, “That was the best thing that ever happened to me!”

    Finally, you can stop pretending that you went to the hard-to-get-into Cornell.

    Now you won’t have to quickly change the subject whenever people idly remark that they didn’t know it was possible to major in “communications” at an Ivy League school.

    No longer will you have to aggressively bring up Cornell when it has nothing to do with the conversation.

    Relax, Keith. Now you can let people like you for you.


    The Tea Party Revolution for April 15th

    March 4, 2009
    Posted by clinicalthinker @ 17:48 PM

    Yesterday my husband walked by and said “hey have you heard what your friend Glenn Beck just said on a morning show?” My comment since I normally do not watch morning TV and he could clearly see me sitting at my laptop with no TV on was “NO what.”

    “He said everyone should SELL THEIR STOCKS and get out of the market because its on its way down further.”

    Yes I had heard that the day before on his show. No big surprise for any of us looking at the real world.
    “HE IS GOING TO CAUSE A PANIC” he says.
    GOING? There is sort of already a panic already going on wouldn’t ya say?

    Oh wait its gone up 150 today?
    Could the roller coaster ride be over?
    Unfortunately probably not.

    Now on the horizon there seem to be a few storm clouds brewing over the Obama camp. A number of Obama key supporters are beginning to fidget. Could it be due to self preservation like their own money is vanishing before their eyes? PITY! Could it be due to those taken to protest in the streets over impending bail out trickle down tax is getting Democrat attention?
    FEAR!
    GOOD OLD DEMOCRATIC FEAR OF BEING UNSEATED PERHAPS?

    We already see the GOP choking on their loss and scrambling as fast as they can to gain a BRAND NEW FOOTHOLD. Apparently that is not working well with Steele dissing Rush and then having to quickly back track for opening mouth and inserting foot down gullet before engaging brain.

    Take a look at the latest stock chart and consider your IRA or 401K.
    It is evident this re-distribution of wealth being foisted on the taxpayer is not working as well as expected.

    market-chart

    Obama, the Democrats as well as the Republicans have miscalculated THE REAL MEDIA.
    THE INTERNET. Its almost as fast as a speeding bullet and can circle the entire globe in under 8 minutes with a well placed network. That media source has been awakened and is beginning to shout … ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! I have to admit I am a little surprised that Obama would ignore that since it was so well used in his own campaign. It seems that the Obama narcissism is showing … like maybe he expected the conned would NEVER come to their senses and see things as they really are?
    OPPS!

    The real revolution has begun and the fools heading up our government today have yet to figure it out.

    I can only wonder how long it is going to take the REAL powers that be in Washington to latch on and enact the failsafe so far ignored to really bail us all out.

    Barack Obama has yet to release documents showing he is actually a “natural born citizen” which allows him to be POTUS.


    Turkey Season Comes to Perry, Florida

    turkeysThe Affirmative Action President gets an “F” in the real word but an “A” from his blind worshipers in the press and his party.

    As it becomes more and more clear to the rest of the nation that yes our president is a communist and yes he is pursuing communist domination of the United States my thoughts turn to the turkey hunting season approaching. As far as hunting goes ambushing turkey is very similar to getting the one up on an enemy platoon. Turkeys have been prey for thousands of years and the slightest color variation or movement will alert them and send them flying into the fields of brown and green never to be seen again. Patience and skill will always rule the day in the hunt for turkeys as well as enemies foreign and domestic.

    Turkey hunting is everywhere in Florida and excellent terrain can be found in all 67 counties. For those interested in the hunt but also wanting some REAL cultural diversity with an eye for a true look at the past and our traditions one has to get miles from the urban sprawl. Perry located 52 miles southeast of Tallahassee and 96 miles northwest of Gainesville, Florida. It is historic not so much because of the local governments poorly executed revitalizing efforts but because it gives us city dwellers glimpse of what America was like before economic segregation and political correctness gripped the land.

    Turkey hunting for most means to escape miles away from the screams of police and fire sirens the dull drudgery of the same parking lot with the same office and the same people day after boring day. Lay me off and start the revolution is what people really want to scream to the world but would never dare to do so in proper society. Pour some Crown Royal and drop that boss gobbler in the bed of the pick up you never know. It just may happen all across America.

    The only racial strife is in the local schools where the politically correct myrmidons drub the indoctrination lessons into the children day after day, year after year. In the world after the indoctrination years it comes down to those with a job and those without a job. There are no promotions based on skin color. Nobody can afford it. If you are a smart boy you get to be foreman it’s that simple. If you not so smart you make the beds or drive the trucks. A very simple system with very little politics. In the face of survival it all goes back to what works and getting rid of the stupidity.

    Residential deed restrictions don’t exist. If you have kids and they like yard toys then put the toys and anything else you want in the front, back, side yard. If you like to lift weights having a nice weight set on the side of the house saves room in the garage for other things like engines that need to be rebuilt. And why not put the DISH antenna next to the mailbox? It’s the best spot where there is no interference from the trees. It all so reminds me of the 70’s and where our economy is going, where we all will soon be and the rude shock millions are in store for. Words like taxation, socialism and confiscation will have new meaning for these folks.

    I look forward to talking about 10 gauge verses 12 gauge, 243’s, 270’s and so forth. The thoughts of escaping my madness to a far away place from another time will grip me and once again. Thousands of others will wait for March 21st to roll around and the beginning of our quest for that boss gobbler. Good luck to all the hunters out there. Practice hard and execute. We all need to get better at killing the gobblers and getting back to reality.
