Obama: “With or Without Congress”… Mmmmm.

Obama: “With or Without Congress”… Mmmmm.

Okay if this doesn’t bother you, you are not an American.

Obama has gone around congress several times already. He’s picked and chosen which laws he’s going to follow and which he will ignore. He’s took our boys to war without congress (A not war, or “kinetic military action” ) When he had TOTAL control of congress he signed a bill that is keeping our economy at anorexic levels.

Now he says “He’s not waiting for Congress to act.” He’s going to pander to the OWS crowd by forgiving or “restructuring” student loans… WOW.

So since DEMOCRATS in the senate haven’t passed a budget in like 900 days, they killed the jobs bill (3 democrats voted with 100% of the republicans) because the JOBS BILL SUCKED! it’s their fault… Oh Not the Democrats, the Republicans….WOW

Obama the SCFOAMF is either inept, or purposely trying to start a civil war in America. He’s got a lot of young folks buying his bullshit. He’s got the support of 90% of blacks because of course Obama is BLACK. He’s lost everyone else.

In 2012 we have one chance to fix this nation and start on the path to TRUE RECOVERY. Not the “Recovery” of debt ridden lies we’ve been told by the SCFOAMF and his cronies.

Lets hope the Republicans don’t step on their johnson again.

Trainwreck Avoidence…Conservatism can save us.

Trainwreck Avoidence…Conservatism can save us.

You ever had a dream that was so vivid you woke up in a cold sweat screaming? It kind of feels like that is our world now. I feel like I’m watching a trainwreck about to happen and feel totally powerless to help…

Special note to liberal/progressive readers: IF you think all things are perfect and it’s only going to get better, you may as well click off and go visit the Daily KO’s or something…

I am seeing a train headed for a wall at a very high speed, packed with women and children, old and young, feeble and healthy, of all races and political ideologies. I see three men, two of them are really large guys and one is a rather small puny man. They are standing by a track switch gear handle that would switch tracks for the train and allow the train to miss the wall although the turn will cause a lot of damage to the train. If one of them would just pull the switch it would save 95% of the passengers on the train. I see the train coming closer and closer. I then see all of the men by the switch wrestling on the ground, punching and choking each other, I see one hand on the switch, as the train passes by the track directional rail and smashes head on to the wall killing all on board…. Then I see the three guys stop wrestling, long enough to point fingers of blame toward one another.

This scenario is reality to the USA. We the People are on that train and we’re seeing it play out from coast. We have gangs running over entire city’s, we have politicians using the economic collapse and human suffering as political tools. We have fraud and abuse of systems that would provide a hand up to those who tried and failed. We have people in our nation who hate our nation. We have an education system that is rewarding those who don’t try and fail while ignoring those who succeed and thrive. We have a political structure that sends men to war for others humanity while neglecting our own. We have so many things that could be fixed by some very simple means but nobody will pull the switch.

We the People are also near the switch. We’re the puny man between two huge guys with bad attitudes.

IF one person pulls that switch it’s going to inflict a lot of pain. It will hurt a lot of people in the short term. Those that have been dependent on Government will find themselves having to learn to work hard, maybe learn a new trade, maybe take jobs beneath their dignity…We may have to rely on churches and private organizations to feed the hungry and house the homeless.. We may have to suffer a little now to save the future of our nation. Are you willing?

Are you willing? If all of the bitching we do about the governments involvement and inaction got fixed and it hurts YOU are you willing to support that? Are you willing to put in the effort and time to save the passengers on the train?

There’s an underlying thing going on in our time and it’s the biggest challenge our nation has faced since the civil war. It’s the battle of our very survival. We have a chance to save OURSELVES by putting in power, a true conservatives who will inflict pain on us. Who by their very values and ideology, will cut services to the needy, reform medicare, medicaid and Social Security, they will reform how our welfare and education system works.

IF a person was to tell you that under their leadership you will go through some hard times, some tough decisions will be made and it will affect everyone will you support them? OR will you support the one that says: “All is good, I’m going to make it better by spending more, borrowing more, growing programs and continuing to do things as we always have.” Are you willing to see where the train is headed?

What is required is that YOU WE realize that all of these campaign promises you hear from either side mean NOTHING and have NO CHANCE of becoming reality… Unless they are promising to inflict pain upon us. I swear to all might GOD that if ONE of them was to take to the podium and say “IF you vote for me, you are voting to fix what is broken. You are voting for me so that WE can start  to fix what is broken and unsustainable. You are voting to inflict a large amount of pain in your life by cutting or reforming government spending, entitlements, education, welfare and the exact OPPOSITE of what you’ve seen over the last 10 years” I’d support that candidate with all my heart and every penny I could afford.

Are you willing to help the small guy pull the switch?

 

 

 

 

DNC Chair blames Tea Party..

DNC Chair blames Tea Party..

As always all fingers must point away from the truth.

DNC chairwoman blames Tea Party ‘tyrants’ for US credit rating downgrade

The head of the Democratic National Committee joined Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) on Monday in casting blame for the U.S. credit downgrade on the Tea Party movement.

Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) quoted Kerry’s comments made Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” and noted, “Truer words never spoken.”

HA, man I love this. This shows the fear that the democrats have of the Tea Party. You damn well better fear us. We the PEOPLE have had enough. We’re making changes, we’re changing the “Ruling elite class” back to “We the people” and if you don’t like it QUIT ya bitch.

I’ll take every bit of the blame, You’re damn right I said STOP SPENDING MONEY, WE”RE FKN BROKE! Here’s something else you may want to blame. How about your party who ran our debt up to this point? Well that can’t be right…

How ridiculous is this… there’s 535 members of Congress, the VP and POTUS in the ruling body. There’s approximately 20 Solidly TEA PARTY BACKED MEMBERS…. And those 20 held the rest hostage?… Whew, that’s the extreme example of “Victimization”… Who are the democrats? Perpetual victims…Yep.

Tea Party Downgrade… Um NO.

Tea Party Downgrade… Um NO.

After listening to the Sunday morning show recaps, it appears the liberal/progressives have their talking point memo well in hand.

John Kerry (D-umbass) Said “This is a tea party Downgrade”.. David Axelron (Ex-Obama adviser) said it, DNC Chair Debbie Whatshername Shmuck said it, it’s a concerted effort to paint “ANYONE ELSE” as the blame for reality… Never will you hear “Yeah, I guess our policies have not worked” or “Yes, I think trying to tax rather than cut was a bad idea” or “Yeah over regulation of businesses, and making the people that HIRE people the enemy may have been a bad decision”… No that can’t be it…

Blaming the Tea party:

The tea party according to ALL the lefty polls they keep trotting out to the media, are only supported by between 15 and 30 percent of Americans. The tea party according to lefty’s is a “Fringe” element that really has no sway in politics… The Tea party according to lefty’s are just racist white old rich people who are terrorists….

The Tea party is NOT an organization that can be attacked as a whole. The looser left can’t get a handle on the groundswell of Tea party activists. They can’t pin point any leader (Other than Sarah Palin or Michelle Bachmann) and they are losing their minds trying.

Thoughts on the Downgrade

Thoughts on the Downgrade

The S&P cites REPUBLICAN opposition as a reason? Heard it on FOX this morning… Mmmm, the plot thickens…

According to one commentator on FOX this will give Obama a tool to “Blame” the Republicans in the fall. Well, I’m good with that.

The blame game recap:

1. GWB drove the car in the ditch (Obama parted the car out and sold the parts to China)

2. Democrats took control of congress in 2006, since then unemployment has been steadily bad. Going on 3 years of 9% or better.

3. Republicans took control of one 1/3 of Government in 2010. They finally stood up to the idiocy (Although they didn’t do real well at it) and said stop the spending.. Downgraded by S&P 7 months later.

4. It was all GWB’s fault that we got in this mess. AND the reason we are still in this mess is because of natural disasters oh AND the Republicans. (Do you believe if the economy turned around they would credit the Republicans in the house equally?)

5. Obama says “We have saved or created millions of jobs” Now “Hey Government doesn’t create jobs, it fosters policies that help businesses grow”…. Mmmm, sounds like what we’ve been saying for 3 years.

Add to these throughout the weekend, because the Democrats will be blaming everything under the sun for this downgrade. Well, except themselves, you know that can’t be their fault can it?

One last thought. IS it possible that Boehner is a masterful chess player? The first bill the HOUSE sent to the senate would have resulted in NO DOWNGRADE. The second bill was weaker, the third one was the signed bill and the weakest of all.. The POTUS signed it.

SO to recap, Boehner had a bi-partisan bill sent to the senate that was CC&B that never got a vote. Who is to blame for that? Just sayin.

 

It’s the ECONOMY STUPID!

It’s the ECONOMY STUPID!

The Dow is falling faster than Anthony Wiener’s political career did after Wienergate… Unemployment rate is currently at 9.2% actual is closer to 12% Obama is partying and fundraising… Fiddler while Rome is burning.

Good thing Obama and his MAJORITY Congress critters passed the stimulus that didn’t stimulate, the ObamaCare package that would create “Thousands of jobs the minute it passed” according to Nancy Pelosi (D-ipshit)

Fact is, according to most leading economist and what we were told in 09, is the unemployment rate would skyrocket to 11% if we didn’t bailout/stimulate/regulate at that time without a second to delay…. So if you average 3 years of 9.7, 9.6 and 9.2 % you get around 9.4% percent unemployment. Which means LESS Revenue for the Government…

IF you didn’t do anything (Which is what MANY of us wanted to do) we would have had 11% one year and it would have steadily came down (Without OBAMACARE) if you use history as the measurement; Let’s figure 11% in 09, 9% in 2010 and by now most economy guru’s would say 5-6-7%% average that and get around 7-8-9% unemployment. Without spending 4trillion in failed policy… WITHOUT a crippling healthcare policy that will have dire effects for a long time….

Many said: Let the free markets fix the mess, lets take the pain now help where we can and let the markets work. That’s not the socialist way. That’s the capitalist way and its a PROVEN way. Instead of doing nothing and allowing AMERICANS to be AMERICANS and rub a little dirt on it and walk it off, the nannies had to intervene. This is the choice we have. Failed NANNY’S or proven Self reliance. Confidence in your nation to dust off the pain and learn from it, or the belief that you’re not capable and only the government can do it.

Choose wisely.

Jobs under Democrat rule…

Jobs under Democrat rule…

Since Obama is “Re-focusing” on Jobs for the 7th time in 3 years…. Lets look at some hard facts:

Unemployment rates throughout the years…

Lets start in 2000 because that’s the liberal cry of Bush killed the economy:

Source ANYWHERE Google “Unemployment rate throughout the years” and you can get the same data as I use here. Not debatable these are FACTS.

2000-4.0 (Bush takes office, Republicans in control of all three power seats in DC, House Senate and WH)
2001-4.7
2002-5.8
2003-6.0
2004-5.5
2005-5-1
2006-4.6 (Democrats take over House of Reps and Senate majority)
2007-4.6
2008-5.8 (Democrat elected to WH-Obama. All three power seats controlled by Democrats- House, Senate and WH)
2009-9.3 (Recession hits between 08 and 09)
2010-9.6
2011-9.2 (Expected to rise, 3 years at over 9%. Republicans take over house of reps failed to gain senate majority and Democrat in WH OBAMA.)

So let’s ask the real questions about jobs. From 2000 to to 2003 the unemployment rate rose, and then fell after 2003. It continued to fall until 2006-2007 it stayed put. The very next year we saw a rise again. Then in 2009 we saw a JUMP. (Debatable as to why, Fanny Freddie, wall street, whatever the reason the fact is it jumped and has not came down due to policies of leadership)

Obama has been in office since day 1 09, he’s been focused on Jobs since day one according to him, however he and his party shoved job killing legislation down our throats and drove companies to shut down or move.

California is a the goal for Democrats and if you can’t see that you are the problem.

US House of Reps pass Debt Deal bill..

US House of Reps pass Debt Deal bill..

Then leave.. Kind of like a teenage boy after prom.. He Just wrecked the chick and is bailing out of the limo!!!!

As I look at the no’s and yea votes I can’t help but feel the knife twist in my back a bit. I understand the vote, I understand the need to “Save us from disaster” But I’m sure getting sick of it.

Tarp was framed in “Disaster is coming”…The healthcare debates were framed  “A disaster is coming” The stimulus was painted in “Economic disaster if it doesn’t pass”…. Seems like the only way democrats can govern is in crisis.

IS there maybe a chance we can just maybe pass something before it’s a crisis? You know a little “Foresight” instead of “hindsight?”

In business it’s very important to be proactive rather than reactive. A reactive company will be closing it’s doors if it doesn’t predict market changes… Our government can only govern if it frames everything around “For the children, old people, retards, cripples, grandma, grandpa, poor, rich, minority, religion etc etc”…

Why does Washington believe that the only way we’ll support something is if the alternative is “Disaster” Why not come out before hand and say look this is the direction we’re headed and we need to alter course? Why not come out and tell the people the truth? Because as Colonel Jessup said in “A few Good Men” WE CAN’T HANDLE THE TRUTH.. I guess.

I find it totally disgusting and repulsive that “Shamnesy” Graham is the lone voice of reason in the senate. He spoke on Greta today saying that “This bill puts our nation at risk, we are under enormous threats that I can’t even tell you about right now” Um.. like an invasion from the south? Um.. maybe? Um just maybe there Lyndsey it was you who put us at risk?…

All in all I’d say this vote wasn’t terrible for America. It wasn’t the best possible, but it was the best we could get I guess. The alternative was what? “Economic disaster” which I was okay with too…. Personally had we got “Economic disaster” I’d be pushing harder in support for every candidates NO vote cast. Now, not so sure. I’ll see how it goes in September.

The reality is we only controlled 1/3 of government. Not enough power to affect much more change than what we got… Kudos to those who were ready to take it to the wall. Kudos to those who felt compromise was the way to go. Defend your vote in the next election either way.
