No Such Thing As Treason

It does seem like there is no such thing as treason any more. One web site releases 96,000 pieces of classified information they stole (or had somebody else steal) from a badly protected government web site. They released the documents to, guess who? The New York Times, Of course. NYT LOVES to release classified documents that may cause people to be imprisoned or killed. The government simply says “these are nothing new; everybody knows most of this” and takes no action against this web site owner. What does it take for this government to take action against this treason? They’re quick enough to take action against people who disagree with them. Maybe it’s because these people DO agree with them. They MAY “take action” against this man, but I’d bet it is wimpy action and won’t mean much. (New York Magazine)

Rangel Making A Deal?

He says he's not. I don't believe him because he lies. The Democrats control the prosecution process, so don’t look for much to happen to tax cheat/tax law writer Charlie Rangel. “Embattled Democratic Rep. Charles Rangel was meeting with the head of the House ethics committee and other top Democrats amid rumors he may try to work out a deal rather than face a full vetting of the charges he is now facing.” And it will probably work, because the Democrats don’t want a Democrat to be “found wanting” just before the 2010 elections, while they’re trying hard to avoid being “swept” out of office for the crimes they have all been a part of in the last year or more.

Soon, You Won't Hava A Choice

Where in the Constitution does it say the Congress has the authority to dictate what kind of light bulbs we can use? Nowhere. My own SON has bought many of these dangerous (mercury gas ifr dropped) bulbs because they DO save him money. He can’t understand why I oppose the use of these dangerous bulbs. He doesn’t realize that if he breaks one he has created a BIOHAZARD that could cost him THOUSANDS of dollars to clean up and maybe hurt somebody, maybe in his own family. But that’s not the point. The point is, Congress does not have the power to MAKE such laws, but they do. SOMEBODY has to oppose them, and I’m it. I may be one of the few people who DO recognize the danger and know that this law is unconstitutional. I will continue to use incandescent bulbs if I have to have them illicitly imported (if I live that long). (Speak Truth to Power)

It's A Con

The whole electric car thing is a con. The most recent incarnation if the con is a car that is completely electric and costs you $40.000.00. They’re giving you a federal discount to get you to buy it. Then it will get only 40 miles before needing to be plugged into your house power for several hours. Think about what that’s going to do to your electric bill. And what will happen to your house power when Obama keeps his promise to bankrupt the coal industry, which the power companies NEED to produce electricity? The whole thing is a “dog and pony show” to make you THINK electric cars are going to solve the imaginary energy crisis. But then, this is just ONE of Obama’s cons, being run on the American people. When are we (not me) going to wake up and realize everything he DOES is a con? (Just common sense)

He Hates "Rich People"

Ted Turner is well known to be a “hater of rich people.” I guess he hates himself, as well as most of his friends, because they’re ALL rich. Turner is one of the richest of the bunch, with his landholdings being compared to STATES. What a hypocrite! I guess he just hates people who have EARNED their riches, rather than those who have inherited it or made it by “clipping coupons.” People like Bill Gates, who started his business in his garage, and used his own abilities and those of people he PAID for their work and expertise to make his riches. What troubles me is that liberals see no “disconnect” in their hatred of “the rich,” while most of them are rich, themselves, mostly by doing the things they impute to the “rich” they hate. (MSN)

"An Absolutely Illegal Execution"

Iran is about to murder an innocent woman who is ACCUSED of “adultery while married” after the death of her husband. They SAY she had a sexual relationship with TWO men. The story doesn’t say if it was or was not rape, just that it happened. There is NO “forensic evidence” of her “crime” She was convicted on a judges “evidence” that he thought it did happen. Nothing is said about any punishment for the men. Their names are not even mentioned. She has already spent FIVE YEARS in prison and been given 99 lashes in front of her children. The case was recently reopened and she was sentenced to “death by stoning” in addition to that. This is how women (only) are treated under “Sharia law.” Even under Sharia Law there must be “forensic evidence” to warrant a death sentence, But in this case alone, the judge’s “knowledge” of the “crime” was enough. “Double jeopardy? That doesn’t exist under Sharia Law. They can reopen ANY case, at any time, and add punishment that was not given in the original trial. Some people want to bring this abomination of law here. What do YOU say? (MSNBC)

Just Call Them Racists

That’s what the liberal “Journolist” members are doing. They can’t answer our charges by arguing the issues, so they just call us names. “Journolist” (now defunct--they couldn't stand the light of day) posters were liberal newspeople, many of whose names you know, because they are in the quote “mainstream media” unquote. Journolist is where they get their “marching orders by their liberal masters at Washington Post, who are the people who OWN Journolist. Calling conservatives “racist” is a thinly-disguised scam designed to “marginalize” conservatives. But it’s not working any more. People are “onto” them and dismiss what they say, therefore marginalizing THEM. (Ann Coulter)

Killing Private Enterprise

America has abandoned 27,000 oil wells while we’re allowing the Cubans and many others to drill for oil in the neighborhood of 200 miles offshore in the Gulf of Mexico while we’re NOT. We have a “moratorium” on drilling there. The Supreme Court struck it down, but the Obama administration is using it as an excuse NOT to drill while allowing other countries to drill in areas WE should be drilling in. That’s so they can sell US the oil at inflated prices. Is Obama STUPID? Yes; we’ve had the answer to that question many times, and in many places. So why haven’t we impeached this idiot for stupidity?

Many People think Obama is very “crafty.” They’re right. But it’s “crafty” fed by stupidity. The things he’s doing are STUPID, but he’s “crafty” in the way he does them, and in the REASONS why he says he’s doing them. He’s TRYING to kill the private enterprise system that has made this the greatest country in the history of the world so he can create a socialist society (which has eventually failed every time it has been tried). What he's doing is NOT stupid if that's what he's trying to do. This is how a communist society was created in Russia, and many other countries. (Lansing State Journal)

Palin--Once the Darling of Democrats

That was back when she was just a "backwater governor" and wasn’t a dire threat to their power. That was after she took the governorship away from a Republican, put many of the notorious “Corrupt Bastards Club (many of whom were Republicans)" in prison and the rest in the unemployment line. The Democrats “danced in the streets." Then she made Alaskans rich by making the oil companies share their profits with Alaskans instead of with the politicians. She told the pork demanders to go to hell, fired the state-paid-for cook, and her security (not mentioning that she was probably “packing heat” herself). She got rid of the governor’s limousine AND the state airplane, saying they were too extravagant.

She got the Alaskan Pipeline built, a project which was one of the biggest projects ever, and came up with a plan for Alaska to be 50% renewable energy by 2025, and they are halfway there now. She resigned as governor to save the state the cost of defending all the phony “ethics charges” liberals were filing against her, and to be able to make enough money to allow a run for president in her own right in 2012, without the limitations placed on her by the liberal-leaning John McCain, which was the reason they lost in 2008. Name me ONE other governor who has done so much. I dare you. Thanks to Barry Cooper for sending this. (The Pocomoke Public Eye)

"Ending Poverty"

That’s the stated goal of many of our former presidents and most of our liberal politicians. They’ve enacted many “programs” to do so, but have never been able to do so. What they HAVE been able to do is create “the plantation” for both whites and blacks. What it does is maintain people at the poverty level and teaches them to “tug their forelocks” to “massa” to keep the money (such as it is) coming. It has created a PERMANENT “welfare class” the politicians can exploit while claiming that the people who CREATE JOBS are the exploiters.

If the author of this piece were white, they’d waste no time in calling her a “racist.” But she is black, and she LIVED under successive “ending poverty” programs for years before she was able to escape. Now she “tells it like it is,” something liberals have an innate inability to do. At the end of the article she makes a very important observation: “The trouble with socialism is you eventually run out of other people’s money.” Thanks to my sister Patti and Barry Cooper for this.

Obama's Scheme to Socialize America

This is a "must read" for all intelligent Americans, particularly those who "pay no attention to politics. It will "bring them up to speed" on the Obama scam to socialize America. Wayne Allyn root has it right. The scheme to overwhelm the system, causing systemic failure that he will blame on capitalism itself by burdening it with countless entitlements is well under way. He has already made promises to Americans that cost more money than there IS, while printing money apace, soon to precipitate inflation like you’ve never seen before and making the money you now have WORTHLESS. Every day your money is worth less. The upshot will be the failure of the system, not because it is no good, but because Obama has overburdened it and MADE it fail. Of course, he will blame capitalism itself, even though it was his own scheming actions that caused its collapse. Wayne describes it well in this article. “Read it and weep,” says Barry Cooper, who sent it to me. I'm sorry it took me so long to get to this. I have so much to read and I'm so old and tired I just can't read it all right away. I have no staff. Whatever gets done, I do it (Wayne Allyn Root)

Are We Dumb? Or What?

Dumb, apparently. According to a Marist poll, 26% of us don’t even know from whom we declared independence! That’s tragic! I can understand people being more interested in making a living and living their lives than knowing who is president and what’s he up to, but not knowing such a basic thing as from whom we declared independence? That’s criminal negligence! What ELSE don’t people know while their government screws them over? Thanks to "Thought You Should Know" (TYSK) for sending me this. (New York Daily News)

Who Owns the "Journolist?"

The “Journolist” is an Internet “mailing list” composed of liberal pretend journalists, most of whose names you would know if you watch the liberal media on a regular basis. People are now asking, “Who OWNS Journolist?” The answer is simple: The Washington Post,” one of the most liberal newspapers in the country. Its members are not only Post employees. They are liberal “journalists” working in ALL media. This list is where they “get their orders” from the elite liberal “ruling class” and discuss, among themselves, how to destroy people who disagree with the “community knowledge” they want to feed to “the masses.” I would never be allowed to be on this list because I am not a liberal. (American Thinker)

NO "Fleeting Association" With the Klan

He was a top officer, and that is no “fleeting association.” Clinton says he “joined the Klan to get elected,” which is something Clinton would have done. He’s as crooked as they come and if Byrd did that, so is he. Strom Thurmond was a racist, too. And the Democrats ran a top politician out of town on a rail for saying something nice about him after he died. Of course, doing the same thing for a Democrat won’t get anybody punished. There’s nothing bad a Democrat can do that will get them punished by their party. If they get caught, the party “circles the wagons.” If it’s a Republican, they are outraged. (Rush Limbaugh)

A Real "DUH!"

“In a bid to stem taxpayer losses for bad loans guaranteed by federal housing agencies Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac, Senator Bob Corker (R-Tenn) proposed that borrowers be required to make a 5% down payment in order to qualify. His proposal was rejected 57-42 on a party-line vote because, as Senator Chris Dodd (D-Conn) explained, ‘passage of such a requirement would restrict home ownership to only those who can afford it’.“ If they CAN’T afford it, how can they ever pay it back? How can anybody be so STUPID and still be a ”respected member of Congress?” Maybe because a majority of congresspeople are just as stupid. Thanks to Barry Cooper for this. (Just common sense)

Getting Around the Supreme Court

If the Supreme Court declares a law unconstitutional, just pass another new law that says the same, with maybe ONE small change, but which can do the same thing as the original law and enforce it until someone can come up with enough money to mount a new constitutional challenge and get it seen by the court. That can take YEARS. Meanwhile the law is enforced. This is an indication of a lawless government. But the feds are doing it right now, and so is the City of Chicago as they replace the anti-gun law that was struck down with a new one. Meanwhile people in Chicago and elsewhere are dying at the hands of criminals who have ILLEGAL guns because they are prevented from having their own guns with which to defend themselves. This blood is on the hands of these anti-gun zealots who have wormed their way into positions of power, many of whom have their own armed bodyguards. (Just common sense)

Should We Profile?

In 1968 Bobby Kennedy was shot and killed—by a Muslim extremist; in 1097 at the Munich Olympics, athletes were kidnapped and killed by—Muslim extremists; in 1978 the U. S. Embassy in Iran was taken over by—Muslim extremists; during the 1980s a number of Americans were kidnapped in Lebanon by—Muslim extremists; in 1983 the U. S. Marine barracks in Beirut was blown up by—Muslim extremists; in 1985 the cruise ship Achille Lauro was taken over and a 70-year-old man in a wheelchair was brutally murdered by—Muslim extremists; in 1985, TWA Flight 847 was hijacked at Athens and a U. S. Navy diver trying to rescue people was murdered—by Muslim extremists; in 1988 Pan Am Flight 103 was bombed by—Muslim extremists; in 1993 the World Trade Center was bombed the first time by—Muslim extremists; in 1988 the U. S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania were bombed by—Muslim extremists; on September 11, 2001, four airliners were hijacked and used to murder up to 3,000 innocent people (again) at the World Trade Center, causing those buildings to collapse. This was done by—Muslim extremists; in 2002 reporter Daniel Pearl was kidnapped and beheaded by—Muslim extremists. At Ft. Hood, Texas, a Muslim extremist murdered 13 people and wounded another 30. Our erstwhile Muslim president says it was "an isolated incident." Do you believe this lie? Do you see a pattern here? I certainly do. Yet airport security screeners are required to waste their time searching 80-year-old women, airline pilots with proper identification, 87-year-old congressmen, medal of honor recipient and former governor Joe Foss and sometimes 6-year-old CHILDREN, while Muslims slip by unnoticed, lest they be accused of profiling. I believe the proper kind of profiling is simply common sense and a good tool. Thanks to Barry Cooper for sending this information. (Just common sense)

Most Boring TV Event

Lots of folks thought it was the soccer championship. It wasn’t, even though that was “right up there.” It was the Kagan hearings. You know, that “dog and pony show” they put on to make Americans think there was a question about whether or not she would be confirmed, so as to maintain the liberal stranglehold on the Supreme Court for another thirty years. If just one more justice retires or dies, there will be a court that is not able to make a decision. Most cases will be a tie (or the liberals will win). Guaranteed. Hopefully that does not happen before we can get rid of Obama. (Ann Coulter/Human Events)

Barney and Cris "Fixing" What They Caused

Barney Frank and Chris Dodd forced through the law (The “Citizen’s Reinvestment Act of 1976”) that FORCED lenders to loan money to people who could not ever repay it (a recipe for financial disaster), that Bill Clinton made worse during his “reign” by THREATENING those lenders with costly investigations if they didn’t. Now Obama has announced an “investigation” into HOW this economic disaster happened, headed by whom? Why, Barney Frank and Chris Dodd, of course! Who better to “investigate” the economic disaster and find NOTHING PROSECUTABLE about politicians than the very people who were its architects? I tried to find stories about this in the media but could not. (The New THOMA$ REPORT 4/24)

Where Best to Be Poor

If I were to be condemned to be “poor,” I’d rather be poor in America than in any other country in the world. People who consider themselves “poor” in America would be considered “rich” in most other countries. They did a television special on “the poor” in New York a few years ago that flopped because the pictures they took through the tenement windows showed the flickering of color television sets. Poor people don’t own color television sets. Neither do they have cars, nor their own homes. I remember a time when my own daughter told me we were “poor” because of what she had learned at school.

At the time I had three cars, color TV, an expensive model railroad layout in the basement, and many other things “poor people” do not have, including a five bedroom house where she had her own room. This is what our kids are being taught in school today. She was not “starving” in any way. It strikes me as funny that many “poor people” are fat. How could they be fat if they’re “starving?” there’s nothing wrong with being overweight, except for the health factor. But “starving people” are NOT overweight. (Walter E. Williams/Town Hall)

al Qaida is Racist

That’s what Obama is now saying. Not because they treat their women badly; not because they KILL people, just for not believing the same way they do. Not because in countries run by Muslims, other religions cannot exist (with few exceptions). In some Muslim countries, just possessing a Bible gets you a prison sentence. And it’s worse on you if you try and recruit a Muslim to your religion. And you’d better not pray unless it is to Allah. (Jonathan Turley)

Michelle "Out of Touch"

She has ALWAYS been out of touch with America and its problems. Nobody who is IN touch would show up in the Gulf wearing a “designer dress” with what looks like oil splotches all over it. She says “there are beaches not spoiled by oil, completely ignoring the fact that it is only a matter of time until they are, mostly because Obama (her husband) refused help in the early days and knows nothing about how to stop the leak while claiming (falsely) to have been “on it from day one.” Both she and her husband CLAIM to have never heard Rev. Jeremiah Wright utter an “anti-white racist remark” in the 20 years they sat ion his church and listened to him rant. I don’t believe that lie, and you shouldn’t either. (Press-Register)

George Steinbrunner Is Dead

That’s it. That’s all I’m going to say about it while the media (including Fox News) talks about it for a week, until we get tired of it. The media (including Fox) obsesses over things on a regular basis. Yes. His death is important because he was an important man. But it doesn’t require a WEEK of stories about every little thing they can uncover about his life. We’re not interested in how many times he went to the bathroom in his life, or many other trifles they will come up with to fill time. He’s dead. He was 80 years old. That’s it. That’s all that’s important. When I die (and I’m 73 years old this year) it won’t even merit a mention on the news. My family will probably even have to PAY to have my obituary appear in the newspaper (If they want it). The difference? A few billion dollars in net worth, I suppose, and the fact that I don’t own a major league baseball team. But I don’t mind. They obsess over many things. This is just the one they’re obsessing over today. This is the last thing I will say about it. (MSN)

It's Not About Race!

“This is not about race; it's about facts. Use a few of these facts the next time somebody wants to engage you in discussion about the border. Tell him you learned these things from somebody who can see Mexico from his front porch.” This article is written by a former military officer who goes armed in his own home because of all the illegal aliens coming through, some of whom will not hesitate to kill ANYBODY who gets in their way (and have). Yes, most of the illegals who come over HAPPEN to be Mexican. But Islamic terrorists use this route, too. They’re here to KILL us, no matter WHAT nationality they are. Obama wants to paint this as being “about race,” as he does everything else where people disagree with him. But it is NOT “about race.” It’s about the safety, not only of Arizona residents, but residents of the rest of the country, too. Thanks to Barry Cooper for sending this. (American Thinker/T. J. Woodard)

"I Hate all Whites! Kill Their Babies!"

That was said by a black man, a member of the "New Black Panthers," and the media doesn't care, nor cover it. What do you think would happen if Glenn Beck said that about black people? He'd be "run out of town on a rail" after being tarred and feathered. Fox would fire him. Liberals and angry black racists would scream that "that’s how ALL whites think." But meanwhile they’re criticizing US for talking about this patent black racism in an organization that has SHOWN their racism in their actions over the years. “There’s no way in hades Beck, or you, or I could say that stupid crap and walk away from it without a 5-10 year sentence. The hate crime cops would be all over us—and justly so.

But it appears that blacks can get away with it when it is directed at white devils while BHO is in da [White -RT] House.” Yes, they call themselves “The NEW Black Panthers,” suggesting the idea that the people running it are “new.” But they’re not. The PEOPLE may be “new,” but their IDEAS and PREJUDICES are NOT. Just like the people running Russia SAY they’re not communists any more. I’d say they’re not communists any LESS. Somebody needs to “rein these people in” before they hurt more people. If I had had my way into a voting place blocked by such as that Shabazz jerk (Panthers are all named Shabazz), I’d have walked right over him while holding his jewels in my fist. If he’d have touched me, he’d have gone to prison for a long time for a felony. Assault on an “at risk adult.” Unless it doesn’t count if a black man assaults an old WHITE man. (Doug Giles/Town Hall)

Imposing Justice

When Israel boarded that ("supply") ship heading for Gaza, all they wanted to do was inspect it to be sure it was not carrying weapons or troops to be used in attacking them as the Palestinians are known to do. They were brutally attacked and they retaliated, killing nine of the Palestinians who attacked them. The United Nations condemned them for defending themselves and Obama’s administration joined the vote to do so. Which tells me Obama and his administration are as stupid as I always thought they were. The United Nations is COMPOSED of dictators and kings who do the same things as the Palestinians do. So to me, they have NO right to condemn Israel for defending itself. Barney Frank says he is “ashamed to be a Jew” because of it. Does he think Israel should not have to right to defend itself? That just tells me he’s stupid. But I already knew that, so what else is new? (Breitbart)

America Rising

America is “rising up” and the first thing America will do is vote everybody who has supported Obama’s travesties of law out of office in November, 2010. then they will vote Obama himself out of iffice in November, 2012 (if they can't impeach him sooner), replacing him with (hopefully) Sarah Palin or Bobby Jindal, or both. The video this link leads to (today) details Obama’s crimes, except for one. His “minions” successfully got this video removed from YouTube, but it is still up on the “Power Line” blog (at least, as this is written, but I wouldn’t count on it being even there long since Obama’s censors are pretty resourceful). If you try to go there and find it gone, let me know. Thanks to Barry Cooper for sending me this. (Power Line)

Obama's "Leftward Lurch?"

Somebody’s been kidding Dick Morris if he thinks it’s a “leftward lurch.” Left is what Obama IS, and so are his accomplices. Anybody with a modicum of intelligence can see that if they’re paying attention. He speaks of “redistribution of wealth” and that is PURE socialism, no matter how much they deny reality. He has many times expressed hatred of private enterprise, and THAT is pure socialism. The liberals try to deny they are pushing socialism, but it’s becoming more and more obvious that’s what they ARE pushing. If we allow him to continue what he’s doing by not getting rid of his voting majority in the Congress, at the very first opportunity, that’s what we’re going to get. We ALREADY have a lot of it in the measures he has ALREADY passed. And he promises even more of it. (News Max)

Does N. Korea Exist?

Except for the current fight about them gaining nuclear weapons and the world fearing what they’ll do once they get them (they don’t know why), nothing much has been said about Korea in the sixty years since we fought them and China to a standstill they STILL call a win. They couldn’t beat us, and we couldn’t beat our own liberal “wimpy” politicians—something we’re facing now in Afghanistan and Iraq. In this article, Mark Holzer wonders why, and asks many good questions about it: “As of last week, sixty years have gone by since the commencement of the Korean War. However, one can find nary a mention of this landmark date anywhere in the media. Why the silence?” Why, indeed? Especially since we are facing the same thing in Iraq and Afghanistan. Will we make the same mistakes we made with regard to Korea? The same kind of people (liberal wimps) are currently in charge, so I think we will. (Henry Mark Holzer/Atlasphere)

Medicare Czar "Loves" British System

“President Obama will soon name Dr. Donald M. Berwick, an iconoclastic scholar (sic) of health policy, to run Medicare and Medicaid, the programs that serve nearly one-third of all Americans, administration officials said Saturday.” This guy has SAID he “loves” the British system that allows “old people” to die rather than spend what it would take to keep them alive. This man is about as STUPID as they come, yet Obama thinks he’s the best man to run the medical business in this country. How stupid is OBAMA? We need to get rid of this man (Obama) before he (or his subordinates, otherwise known as his accomplices) make rules that kill us all. Obama has already made rules that have killed a lot of people. The longer he is in that office, the more blood will be on his hands. Obama blames the MINORITY Republicans for his "interim appointment" (bypassing Congress) of this man, which is a LOAD of stinky brown stuff. (The Trentonian)

Jailed for Preaching Jesus to Muslims

Talk about a reversal! Try to preach ANY other religion in an Islamic-controlled country and you will be at the very least jailed for along time, or put to death—depending on which Muslim-controlled country it is. And if Christians try to preach Jesus to MUSLIMS, in the United States, THEY are jailed. Because “preaching Jesus” to Muslims might “offend” them. Frankly, this offends ME! Even though I’m not big on organized religion of ANY kind. I believe in a “superior intelligence” that orders this complicated universe, but I have no idea what form it takes. I don’t pretend to know the answers, but I don’t think jailing those who think they do is right, on either side. (Western Journalism)

I Hate All Black People!

Boy, would I be in trouble if I ever said anything like that! But this “King Samir Shabazz” guy says the same thing about white people and everybody tries to minimize it, saying it was just the act of “youthful indiscretion.” He also says we need to “kill a lot of crackers,” his word to mean white people. This is the guy who was standing in front of a polling place carrying a nightstick, intimidating voters—and which Obama’s Department of Justice will NOT prosecute because they were there in SUPPORT of Obama.

This is the kind of thing a con man like Obama thinks he can get away with. Does he really think we are that STUPID that we can’t understand what’s going on? The DOJ says “No more cases against blacks.” Soon, the jails will empty out because MOST crimes are COMMITTED by blacks. That’s not racism, that’s common sense and truth and is borne out by the figures. This is another stupid thing being done by people in Obama’s administration. (Soda Head)

Obama's "Stimulus" Has Failed

Mostly because there was NO WAY it could succeed (at least, by OUR standards)! Using tax dollars (taken from American citizens) to “stimulate” the economy doesn’t work because that does not create NEW wealth. It takes EXISTING money and redistributes it (that’s collectivism). ONLY new wealth created by the PRIVATE SECTOR can make the economy better. New wealth is created by entrepreneurs who take their own (earned) money and INVEST it in projects that both CREATE JOBS and PROFITS without taking money forcefully from others.

Of course, Obama is now trying to get a NEW “stimulus bill” passed under a new name. There have been SEVERAL “stimulus bills” passed under several different names, and NONE of them have helped a whit. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over while expecting a different outcome. That’s what Obama and his accomplices are doing. All it does is create “slush funds” he can use to give money to his friends, who have already given much money to his campaign fund. (Financial Planning)

Typical Environmentalist Fools

They can’t prove it. But they assert it. Then they say, “What if I’m right?” then say we should do some stupid things right away to “fend off” the effects of the things they can’t prove will happen, “just in case” it does. How stupid ARE these people? How stupid do they think WE are? The holes in their story are many, but they still get other fools to send them money to promote their silly theories, while others DO the stupid things they suggest. My own SON has many of those silly “compact flourscent” light bulbs and he swears by them, forgetting entirely that if he breaks ONE of them he needs to call in a “haz-mat team” for an expensive cleanup. Of course, he won’t, and might even suffer from it. I can’t prove that, but maybe he should stop using them, even if their use IS the law, “just in case.” Yes, use of incandescent bulbs HAS been banned in a few years. Just on the “off-chance” they’re bad. That’s what politicians DO: ban things THEY THINK might be “bad for us,” whether we like it or not, and whether or not they can prove it. (Common Sense/Paul Jacob)

Obama INSISTS on Doing the Wrong Thing

A judge overturned Obama’s moratorium on drilling, which was brought on by the Gulf oil spill. Obama apparently thinks ONE spill will cause a lot of others, to the extent that he must cost thousands of oil drilling workers their jobs and millions of stockholders in BP to do likewise. Look at your own retirement plan. I’d be willing to BET that YOU hold BP stock in your portfolio. Obama has pledged to “appeal” the rejection of his stupidity. Gad, I can’t WAIT until we can get rid of this ignorant jerk! (World News Vine)

Four Justices Can't Read

The Supreme court just affirmed the right of Americans to “keep and bear arms” but four justices think this does not include HANDguns. Where, in that short, very clear Amendment to the United States Constitution does it say “only long guns are covered?” They’ve tried the “militia” scam and that didn’t work. Now they’re trying to say the government CAN ban HANDGUNS. And predictably, the four LIBERAL justices agreed. So the argument continues over what KIND of guns can be carried while criminals continue to kill innocent people with the guns they carry ILLEGALLY and stupid politicians think we can defend ourselves by DISARMING ourselves. (Jacob Sullum/Town Hall)

"From Day One"

That has been Obama’s mantra about his response to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, and likewise the mantra of all his mouthpieces. There’s one problem: it isn’t true. It’s a typical Obama lie, told to cover the fact that it was more than FIFTY DAYS before he made a meaningful trip down there to see things first-hand. It’s yet another example of the liberal use of Goebbel’s (Hitler’s PR man) system: “Tell a lie. Tell it often to as many people as will listen. Soon it will become truth, and those who believe it will fight you if you try and set them straight.” You should remember that every time you hear the “from day one” lie. And you will hear it, often, from Obama and everybody who wishes to fool you into believing Obama has been “on top of this” since the beginning. The truth is, he waited, hoping it would “go away.” It didn’t. So he found it necessary to convince the world he was “right on it” from the beginning. (Fox News)

"From Day One"

Those are the “code words” Obama and all his accomplices are chanting to make you think they were in the Gulf of Mexico right away when BP’s well exploded. They weren’t. Not in any HELPFUL way. All they’ve done is get in the way. Thirteen countries have offered help (proven help) and have been rebuffed because of a 1920s law made to protect union members in this country. A law that is easily “set aside” in an emergency, and has been in the past (Bush did it in 4 days after Katrina and it toiiok Obama 70 days after the Gulf spill). Now they’re using the term in other ways, and are lying every time they use it. They refused to use things that were right here in this country and things Governor Bobby Jindal wanted to use. He also was rebuffed. They SAY they know how to stop the leak, but they don’t. And they won’t allow anybody else to stop it, either. Especially if that person is a Republican, as is Jindal. (Just common sense)

Capitalism Made Us Great

Does anybody wonder why in less than 300 years this country has outstripped civilizations that have been in existence for THOUSANDS of years? It’s CAPITALISM; that “terrible system” liberals hate so much. The system they’re continually trying to undermine and replace with collectivism (socialism, communism, fascism, progressivism, or whatever other name they come up with to confuse us), a failed system that DEPENDS on the profits made by capitalists to have any money and property out there to steal and “redistribute.” Russian communism, their first “showcase” in the recent world, collapsed under its own weight after 70 some years, while the communist dictator of the time told his friends not to worry, that the collapse of communism is “just a ploy” to fool those capitalist idiots.

Meanwhile, countries under capitalism flourished until the socialists in our own government succeeded in subverting it with the "Citizen's Reinvestment Act of 1976." Yes, Russia IS “no longer” a communist country, but it IS still a SOCIALIST country, ruled and run by the SAME PEOPLE, who just SAY they’re “not communists any more.” But the only difference between communism and socialism is “cosmetic.” They think we don’t know that; and, for the most part, they’re right. Those who “pay no attention to politics” don’t know that. Those of us who DO, know it. (John Stossel/Human Events)
