Oops: Sorry About That Camapign Pledge

The United States is quickly learning what a liar Barack Hussein Obama really is. If there is anyone who still believes a word that comes out of this man's mouth, you are a total idiot. Ron White likes to say "you cant fix stupid". Well, that certainly is true and sadly, 50% of the United States is totally ignorant.

Here is Obama list of credentials as a professional liar. First, he is a politician. Therefore, the truth is not in the equation. Secondly, he is from the Chicago political scene; the most corrupt in the country. Finally, he is already going back on everything he said.

Remember all that campaign bull crap about only raising taxes on people making over $250,000 a year. Well, yesterday saw that myth dispelled. Obama hit his first target with a tax increase and as you will see, it affects the poor more then the wealthy.

According to this AP article, a new cigarette tax took place yesterday. It raises the tax on a pack of cigarettes 62 cents. This is up from the 39 cents previously charged. Thus, a carton of cigarettes just went up by $6.20. But feel comfort in knowing this went to pay for Obama health initiatives.

While I am no defender of smokers, this tax hits home with those Obama professes to protect. As the article shows, the lower income brackets have a higher percentage of smokers. It starts at 34% for those earning less than $12,000 per year. Now, do you think these people can realistically afford as well as those making greater than $100,000? Of course not. Yet, Obama promised no tax increases on these people.

Of course, this is the first of many to come. Pay attention to that cap and trade crap that Obama is professing we need to prevent man-made global warming. This will raise utility bills by 6% while increasing a gallon of gas by 13 cents. Again, who do you think these taxes hurt the most. Naturally the lower income brackets suffer the greatest brunt of it. They are already spending 100% of what they earn.

Obama is quickly showing himself to be the grand liar. Nothing out of his mouth can be believed. Trust me, the cigarette tax is not the last campaign promise he will break. In the end, he will screw the same people he vowed to help. Typical politician.

Another Crooked Politician

Click here to read the story.

What a surprise. We have another crooked politician on our hands. This one, however, was caught with his hand in the cookie jar. He took "improper" gifts. To me, that is a nice term for "payoff" (kickback or bribe also works). This is an example of the corruption at it's worst.

So what does this say about the people in our government? Some will try to proclaim this was only a "bad apple" among many fine individuals who adhere to the rules. What a bunch of crap that is. If you do not believe that all our fine leaders are on the take, then answer how those same people can enter office with modest wealth and exit rich. This on a salary of $130,000-$170,000. The answer is they cannot.

A politician convicted of 7 felonies fails to surprise us. It is interesting to note that this guy was in the Senate since 1968. We had a crook running our country for the past 40 years. My question is if he was convicted of these 7 counts, what else did he do that we missed? I am certain, in the course of his distinguished career, he received many more "gifts". Chalk it all up to politics.

In my view, this individual betrayed the public's trust. For that he ought to receive double penalty. It is like when a police officer turns crooked and betrays the people of the community. That individual ought to be jailed in the general population. Maybe that would deter the next one.

So what do we do with the esteemed Senator Stevens? Make his life living hell. Take everything that he owns and leave him (and his family) completely broke. We know his wealth was build off ill-gotten gains so we should remove it. Then, we ought to put him in maximum security until he dies. Since he is 84, that will not be too long. Let's make an example of this criminal. Nothing is too harsh for him.

America has tolerated the behavior of crooked politicians for too long. It is time that we tell those in charge that we will not accept this anymore. Perhaps it is time to form a good ole fashioned posse. The time is getting close.
