This one certainly is a dumbass

Watch this video of the leader from ACORN. The entitlement mentality is alive and well. I wonder if beating this woman with a belt is covered by the Constitution since it will give me happiness.

Check out this VIDEO

This is just another example of how the government is creating a dependent state. And, remember, this organization was just given billions by the Obama stimulus package.

The revolution nears.

Another day...

The nice part about the nomination process for cabinet positions is that we get to see how corrupt the powerful truly are.  It is something that we all know about.  Yet, the process that nominees go through, especially Cabinet members, unearths a host of activities which were covered up.  This go around is no different.  Now, we have the Tom Daschle revealing that he did not pay all his taxes.

This is the second go around for Obama in dealing with tax cheats.  He had this issue with his Treasury secretary.  For whatever reason, these guys seem to think they are exempt from the rules the rest of us operate under.  That is the mindset of the powerful.

When Geithner owned up to cheating the government, everyone jumped to his aid saying it was a mistake.  Are they going to do the same thing for Daschle?  According to this report, Daschle paid $140,000 in back taxes.  Is anyone going to claim this was an error in bookkeeping?  I can see $50 being considered a mistake, but $140,000 is not. 

The truth of the matter is that Daschle tried to get away with cheating the government.  This is something that I can't blame him for since I know they are only going to waste the money.  Yet Daschle is one of those who feels the government is better to run our lives then we are.  Also, he got caught.  If you are going to try to cheat on your taxes, you deal with the consequences when you are caught.  The fact that he showed himself to be unrustworthy should shoot down his nomination for office.  He is not qualified.

Corruption is something that is spread throughout our government.  These people are not fit to be our leaders.  They do not represent the vast majority of people.  For whatever reason, there is a mindset which tells these people that they are exempt for the same laws that we operate under.  Ted Stavens is a prime example.  He is going to jail (or should be) for taking what amounts to payoffs.  The same with the Governor of Illinois.  Both situations, while extreme, reveal the basic mindset of the corrupt.  They feel they are above the law.

And to Mr. Daschle I say, "better luck next time".  You do not belong in public service since you are an umntrustworthy liar.  Go screw someone else over.  Leave the American people alone.

Long Term Recession

I just finished watching the talking heads on t.v. covering what the politicians are doing to stimulate the economy. After listening to these yoyos, I can only conclude that we are going to feel the pains of this recession for a long time. Nothing these morons is proposing is going to make a bit of difference. The stimulus package is more political nonsense designed to fulfill campaign promises.

Certainly this is going to seem like an attack on the Democrats. Well, get use to it. This is their game. Presently, there is barely a Republican to be found in Washington. That is what happens when your party gets destroyed in an election. Now, the Democrats have a shot to fix things. Alas, like most political figures, they are going to fail miserably.

Obama said we are going to spend our way out of this situation. That is the craziest notion ever proposed. When things are going bad, is that the time to spend? Take a business. If sales slow, does that company go on a spending spree (only if you receive bailout money)? Of course not. How about if you are an individual? If you lose your job, is that the time to spend recklessly? Again, the answer is no. Then why does the government think that we should spend our way out of a recession? Because our leaders have no clue what makes the economy go.

Obviously, I have no faith in the government. It is a corrupt institution that is destined to fail. Presently, the American people are overtaxed to keep up with the excessive spending of the Federal government. Now, we are seeing the largest expansion in spending this country has ever seen. I only hope they can print the money fast enough to keep up.

Prepare yourself for double digit inflation. This will stifle an chance at rapid recovery.

Presidential Crookedness?

I wrote the other day about the crooked politician, Ted Stevens. I felt this story epitomizes one of the major things wrong with our political system. For the most part, the crooks are free to roam as they see fit. This is the basic premise behind the new revolution. Somehow we, the American people, need to take back control.

Ted Stevens shows how corrupt some can be. Nevertheless, there now appears to be another example of the corruption and it comes from one of our Presidential nominees. It seems there is a report that his aunt, who is living in a Boston public housing complex, is here in the United States illegally. Are you kidding me? A member of the family of a sitting U.S. Senator is illegally in the country. That is astonishing to me.

Many will say what is the big deal? I am certain this factoid will get little press while doing little to change anyone's mind. Most Americans are blind to what is important anyway. They are like sheep being led to slaughter. Look at the poor's overwhelming support of more government handouts. They fail to realize that it is the government which is keeping them down.

Anyway, what does an illegal aunt have to do with Obama's ability to hold the Office of President? First, to me, it shows how he has no regard for the laws of this nation. He feels that it is okay for his family to break the immigration laws of this country. Secondly, if he is not willing to uphold this standard within his own family, how can we believe that he will do it for the country? Obviously, he condones this type of behavior.

Is one black woman from Africa here in the United States illegally when there are 15 million others who fit into the same category a big story? Yes, when the nephew of that woman is running for President. This shows a great deal about his belief in the importance of laws.

One final thought that crossed my mind: if one receives $4 million from the profits of a book, why does he have an aunt on public assistance? I guess redistributing the wealth does not pertain to his money.

Is this really happening?

This election is really starting to scare me. The recent events of the government were enough to make me realize that our society is going in the wrong direction. However, nothing is comparing to what I am witnessing now.

Obama's true colors are really starting to show through. There was an audio uncovered that he recorded on PBS a number of years ago. It seems that he feels the Supreme Court never properly addresses the issue of wealth redistribution during the civil rights movement. Are you kidding me? Who is this guy to question what the Founding Fathers put together.

It appears some feel the Constitution is limited and there are some who are excluded by it. This is such a bunch of crap. This document was created for all Americans regardless of ethnic makeup. The fact that it does not give preferential treatment to anyone is upsetting to some. Well, I have a perfect solution for you. Get the hell out!!!

It is time that we took our government back from these type of people. If we wanted a socialistic system, we would move to France. The fact that we are here shows our belief in capitalism.

The government seems to think it is alright to take your money. Anyone who tries to do that in the private sector is guilty of theft. Yet the government can do it legally. And the bastards (bitches so as not to be sexist) have no problem digging deeper into your pockets at will. If they need money, they take it.

Now, Obama proclaimed himself to be the best steward for society. What a bunch of crap that is. Where does he get off thinking that he ought to take money from anyone to give it to another? That is not public service; that is thievery. It is time we call it like it is.

Anyone who thinks the government is your friend is a fool. I only hope America wakes up before it is too late. If not, there is always Mexico.

The Advantage of the Economy

I am grateful that the economy is the major issue of this election cycle. It is horrible that people have to suffer because of the ineptitude of others. Our leaders let us down at every level. Sure, they all claim they saw it coming while trying to warn others. Both McCain and Obama stated they proposed legislation to reel in Freddie and Fannie. If they knew it was such a problem, why weren't they standing on President Bush's head until he listened? Well, that is a matter for another post.

The economy is front and center. It is the sole topic that made everything else secondary. The reason I am grateful for that is the religious right is finally negated. At the moment, nobody gives a crap what the Bible thumpers think. I, for one, am ecstatic to have an election without gay marriage being a subject. Really, who cares? How does this affect anyone other than the gays and the nosy religious freaks who want to push their morality down our throats? The truth is that it does not.

How about abortion? This is another one that is a favorite of these same people. They tried to bring it in with the nomination of Palin. Fortunately, other than stating what her stance is, there is little mentioned of it. Here is a clue people. The Supreme Court has so far legitimized the procedure. Get over it.

I always commend people for being passionate about their views and following them. Frankly, I could care less if someone wants to spend his/her time promoting the criminalization of abortion. What I take exception to is the constant ramming of it down our throats like anyone is going to change their mind. This is an issue that people are resilient in their beliefs. People on both sides of the equation are solid in their choices.

Those who want to instill their morality upon me need to be slapped. I have read the Bible enough to know that religion twists the initial meaning. They use fear to control the general population. Someone once said that "religion is the opiate of the masses". Nobody proves this better than the present day religious right. They want to legislate all the moral choices you make. To them I say, mind your own damn business.

The bottom line is there is always a silver lining. Our country is going to crap but at least the religious nuts are quiet. To me, it is almost worth the trade-off.

The Talking Heads Are At It

How stupid can some people be? It amazes me how ideology makes total fools out of seemingly intelligent people. Here is a news flash: there will be no tax breaks for anyone in the coming years regardless of who wins. The best that might occur is that McCain holds the existing tax cuts in place (if he wins). Most likely, since the Congress will be overwhelmingly Democrat, he will be pushed into a tax increase.

The government bailout screwed all of us since we spent so much money. Yet all the pundits believe the talking points of the campaigns. Get real. We blew threw $1.45 trillion in the last month. There are only a few choices left: raise taxes, increase the deficit, or go back on campaign promises. Which will they choose? My guess is a combination of the above.

It makes me want to puke when these morons on t.v. and the radio believe the outright lies of the candidates. I understand how the politicians delude themselves. Sadly, they think they are going to do what they say. In reality, they do not. This is a fact of politics.

So what are you voting for? It comes down to who is lying to you least. The pathetic part is that the people in the media believe the talking points. This is sad since there are so many intelligent people who cover these elections. Yet their ideology cannot allow them to see the truth.

The bottom line is that we are all being lied to. Our fearless government led us down a path of destruction. It promised us lots of handouts that we are now having to pay for. Recent estimates have the debt at $500,000+ per family in the country. Does anyone believe this amount can be made up? Of course not. It is impossible for us to pay back $10-$12 trillion.

Perhaps it is best if we start all over. Throw everyone who is responsible for this mess out of office (and into jail) while wiping the slate clean. This is what happens during a revolution. We are rapidly moving towards some drastic action.
