The Day Of Reckoning

Those who understand the damage done by the New Deal and the Great Society had better buckle themselves in because the “New Kids on the Block” are going to create a “Progressive Potemkin Village” to beat the band..

Using Lousy Judgement

The Savior has again spoken but as always, his hollow words are still filled with hallucinogenic helium.

A Self Sustaining Entity

The liberals insist in over involving themselves in anything and everything. Acknowledging that the “liberal definitional inversion” is deeply embedded within each their moronic mantras is of paramount importance in order to dissect their demagoguery with surgical precision. For example, the “equality of opportunity” in their dirty hands morphs into the “equality of outcome”. Since the left demands an “equality of outcome” as opposed to an “equality of opportunity”, they have to immerse themselves to an illogical degree in the “day to day operations” of everything that they “selflessly” impose themselves upon. Combining their nonsensical nomenclature with the instinctively intrusive idea of “government”, unfortunately creates the progressive “perfect storm”..

Frank Conversations

Smack dab in the middle of “Black History Month”, after our first “actual” black President (Actually, part black..) (Lilly white, red nose pinko Bill Clinton does not count.) has been elected and after our first minority (black) attorney general (Bush’s Alberto Gonzalez doesn’t count either, not minority enough..) has taken office, attorney general Eric Holder has struck a chord that won’t play well with the tone deaf liberals.

First, lets set the backdrop for attorney general Eric Holder. Holder was immersed in the Marc Rich/Bill Clinton “Pardongate” which involved the whirlwind “pardon party” of 177 convicts that took place as the Clinton administration, also known as the “Clinton Keggers”, busied themselves trashing the White House as they skulked out in 2001. Holder was also involved in the reduction of the sentences of the sixteen members of the Boricua Popular Army, an FBI identified terrorist organization, a move endorsed by Clinton. In 2004, Illinois Governor Rod “Show me the money” Blagojevich, hired Holder’s law firm, Covington & Burling, to “investigate” the Illinois Gaming Board. (My guess is that Blago didn’t think that he was being “compensated” fairly enough..) One of Covington & Burling’s finest examples of “pro bono” work is their representation of seventeen terrorists “detained” at Guantanamo Bay.. Let’s look at the bright side, at least the attorney general appears to know how to do his taxes!

Holder, while speaking at the Justice Department, said, “Though this nation has proudly thought of itself as an ethnic melting pot, in things racial we have always been and I believe continue to be, in too many ways, essentially a nation of cowards..” He continued on, “..we must feel comfortable enough with one another and tolerant enough of each other to have frank conversations about the racial matters that continue to divide us.”

 

First off, let me say that it is hard to take this type of an invitation seriously from a political party headed by a man who for twenty years, sat in the front row of the Trinity United Church of Christ wearing his “WWJD?” (What Would Jeremiah Do?) shirt, raptly listening to the bombastic bile of a clearly unhinged racist “Pastor”.

Michael Meyers, executive director of the New York Civil (snivel) Rights Coalition, identified as a “multi-racial network of organizations that try to promote racial harmony and oppose all forms of bigotry” (except the liberal kind..) said, “I don’t think Barack Obama believes that or would say that..” I agree. No Democrat would EVER consider “having frank conversations” about race and racism because the inherent and reflexive racism of the liberals themselves would have to be “addressed”.. The idea of “frankly” discussing racism with a liberal, whether he or she be an elected official or from any snivel rights group, would be about as well received as the idea of discussing a twelve-step program with Joe Biden or the idea of discussing gastric bypass surgery with Al Gore..

Meyers said that “Holder’s speech signals to him that this attorney general is profoundly left in the dark and in the past about race..” Meyers meant to say, “Any speech about race has to be about the past.. and the stuff about the Democrats and their habitual racism, keep that in the dark..”

In an article entitled, “Attorney General’s Remarks Ignite Debate Over Race Relations”, Barack Obama is mentioned giving “a major speech on race” where he said that “mutual racial resentments remain over the legacy of slavery and affirmative action”.. “Mutual”? The “resentment” rests upon the side of those who must appear appropriately aggrieved in order to expedite their requests for remuneration. There was an old saying that went, “Love means never having to say you’re sorry..” With the “racist resenters” like $harpton and Jack$on, “race” means “always having to say you’re sorry for something that you had nothing whatsoever to do with..”

 

What “mutual” resentment is there about the discriminatory practice of “affirmative action”? (Liberal Definitional Inversion: “affirmative” means discriminatory..) The ” real victims” of affirmative action “resent” the obvious discrimination and the “bogus beneficiaries” of the affirmative action should but don’t resent the condescension of the liberals and their “you are helpless/you can’t make it without us” handout mentality.

“Frank discussions” about “race and affirmative action”? Obama said that he urged the nation to “break a stalemate we’ve been stuck in for years” and he “bemoaned” the “chasm of misunderstanding that exists between the races”. Race racketeers like $harpton and Jack$on have too much to lose if the “stalemate” is broken. Blacks who try to break such “stalemates” are usually branded as “Uncle Toms” or “Oreos”.. For example, presenting the proof that the liberals and their “affirmative action”, as well as their putrid public schools, are actually the perpetual purveyors of racist ideology gets you the resounding two hundred decibel reminder that you are in “denial”..

Whenever anyone from the left says they want to have a “frank conversation”, what that means is they expect you to admit to some alleged wrongdoing that they themselves are actually responsible for and they demand that you apologize profusely.

Just recently, the loyal opposition wanted to have “frank discussions” about the nearly one trillion dollar “economic stimulus package” with the Democrats. They were all but locked out during a stimulus bill conference on February 10^th, the President responded with, “I won” and the Speaker of the House called the Republicans “acrimonious” and called any disagreement with their bloated bill, “extraneous process arguments”..

Holder called America “a nation of cowards”. I agree. The blacks who have allowed themselves to be victimized by the Democrats, who stand idly by as the disgrace of black on black crime escalates and who accept the ignominious liberal racism without a word of disagreement or outrage would all fit rather nicely into that category.

Holder is right. However, I will say that he is right for all the wrong reasons because he and the members of the collectivist caliphate are not prepared to have “frank conversations” about anything, let alone anything remotely resembling an honest discussion of the relations between the races.

If they claim that they are “prepared” and if they are willing to make the first move in the spirit of “good faith”, then I would suggest that they turn their backs upon the historically racist liberal lice..

Is that “frank” enough for you?

A Very Broad Agenda

At long last, the “Diplomacy from a Distance” style of our Secretary of “Statist” has come to an end. This “green” (in more ways than one..) administration’s concern with the potential “carbon footprint” of a Secretary of State that “actually travels” to conduct diplomacy has led them to believe that a hefty long distance bill is better for the environment than the padding of her frequent flier miles. Then again for some strange reason, her agenda on this romp has little to do with diplomacy and a lot to do with the exaggerated threats to the “environment”..

Rodham, identified as “”President Barack Obama’s chief diplomat” (Name the scarier segment: “chief diplomat Rodham” or “President Obama” Six to five and pick ‘em..) winged her way to Tokyo and then it’s off to China, South Korea and Indonesia. An article (“Clinton warns North Korea during Tokyo visit”) said that this was “her first trip abroad”. Judging by her imaginary “resume” of “thirty five years of experience”, that should actually read, “it’s the broad’s first trip”..

Rodham wasted no time in revealing the inherent gullibility that the progressives are unfortunately known for. In that frigid librarian tone, she “warned North Korea to live up to its commitments to dismantle its nuclear programs”. Here we have a Secretary of State who doesn’t even have the ability to make her husband “live up to his commitments” to her and she is “warning” the North Koreans.

“Warnings” need to have a bit of substance behind them other than the mere amperage of hollow progressive rhetoric. The “substance” behind the Obama administration “warnings” up to this point have been the closing of Guantanamo Bay, the decision to cut defense spending, the dropping of charges against foreign terrorists/murderers and the ordering of all overseas CIA interrogation centers closed. “Dear Leader” must be quivering in his teeny weenie widdle boots..

Rodham dove right into the world of international diplomacy by barking that “the main issues on her agenda included climate change, clean energy and nuclear proliferation..” Later she said, “The administration’s goal is to push climate change and the global financial crisis to or near the top of the agenda..” In China, “Clinton’s agenda will encompass the full sweep of the economic crisis, global warming, clean energy, North Korea and health issues..”

It would appear that the Secretary of State is more concerned with the environment than matters of State. If you look WAY, WAY down the executive ladder within the Department of State, you will find the “Under Secretary of State for Democracy and Global Affairs”. This typically redundant governmental spot was created by Bill “Mr. Big Government” Clinton to “manage diplomatic efforts on emerging world wide issues such as the environment..”

Since the Secretary of State needs to concern herself with the duties of a much lower level cabinet post’s responsibilities, I will assume that the Obama administration has run into problems trying to locate yet another liberal tax cheat to fill this spot. If they are in a bind, they could call the last Under Secretary, Paula J. Dobiansky, who filled the post admirably during the Bush administration. The only glitch that I would see with this is she actually HAS experience, unlike everyone else in the Obama administration and she seems to understand her obligations on April 15^th..

At about 30,000 feet, Rodham said, “the North Koreans have already agreed to dismantling, we expect them to fulfill the obligations that they entered into..” The naivete of the progressives is at once childishly charming as well as definitively dangerous. If they aren’t “talking” about something, they are always ready to “sign” something. Then it is time to dole out the hugs.. Once the flash bulbs pop, the liberal “New age Nevilles” actually believe that their (our) adversaries are going to “fulfill their obligations” because they “said they would”..

Korean kook Kim Jong Il (ill) says he is doing “peaceful scientific research” and “space development”, so there is nothing for anyone to worry about.. The empty and idle threats and the inherent cowardice of the liberal administration towards these kinds of simians will put America right where the left wants us to be, completely vulnerable, totally susceptible.

In order for “negotiations” to be effective, they have to be based upon the premise that retaliation for noncompliance is inevitable, that there might be actual negative consequences for disregarding or violating any agreement that is made. Those who are weak always want to “negotiate first”. The liberals need to understand that the only thing that takes place from a position of weakness is concession. Those who are weak or vulnerable are generally attacked, not bargained with. Those who are weak want to “bargain” before the fight begins.. All of this liberal talk of “talk” emboldens our enemies, it doesn’t paralyze them with fear.

That is the reason that the “U.N. resolution” is irrelevant, there is nothing behind it. The only possible detriment relative to one of these useless reams is the potential for an infection from a paper cut. You have to wonder which is more frightening, the dreaded “U.N. weapons inspector” or a column of powder blue helmets marching towards you..

Here liberal “Peace in our time” inspired “talks” lead to “resolutions” or “treaties” and then eventually, when the liberals emasculate the military to the point where the balance of power shifts, camels are grazing on the White House lawn..

Here we have the United States “chief diplomat” on her first diplomatic mission and she wants to “talk” about the “environment” and “global warming” to countries concerned with and surrounded by the militaristic mind set of North Korea. (and China for that matter..) It is the equivalent of being in Kuwait in July of 1990 and talking about bowling and boysenberries.

Rodham says, “we have a very broad agenda”. I am more concerned with “this broad’s agenda” and the “agenda” of an administration that sends a Secretary of State on a field trip to talk about the weather.. It does seem like a “very broad agenda”, it sounds as though it was prepared by the broads at the Lifetime Channel..

The infantile notion that the enemies to freedom will not do anything “bad” based only on “talks” and “treaties” as opposed to force and can only be found within the communist craniums of the liberal left. The liberals are just dying to believe. Soon, with the Obama imbeciles “talking” to Iran, North Korea and Russia (again..), Americans will be dying BECAUSE the liberals believed..

One Thing Is Missing

Right out of the “some things will never die” category, we find the most recent machinations from Bill Clinton. (There are two things about liberal ex-Presidents, they never shut up and the liberal press always manages to find them when they want to yap. Please note that Republican ex-Presidents can only be found pictured on the milk cartons at your neighborhood store..)

In chatting with radio host Mario Solis Marich, Bill said, “well you either ought to have the Fairness Doctrine or we ought to have more balance on the other side.. because essentially there’s always been a lot of big money to support the right wing talk shows and lets face it, you know, Rush Limbaugh is fairly entertaining even when he is saying things that I think are ridiculous..” He continued on, “..more balance in the programs or have some opportunity for people to offer countervailing opinions..”

Remember that with “liberal definitional inversion”, words that are used by the left usually have diametrical definitions when they are practically applied. “Fairness” when bandied about by the left, never is “fair”.. “Fairness” is just the liberal’s phonetic fascism, perfumed for full effect and salted to distaste. The “Fairness Doctrine”, like the “economic stimulus package” is nothing more than “Democratic Definitional Diversion/Inversion”.

Since Bill Clinton refuses to be silent like his wife, (AKA: the employed Clinton, starring as the “Invisible Woman” in the Obama progressive pantheon..) we need to properly dissect his discourse..

If the lairs of the left are to be believed, the “Fairness Doctrine” IS “more balance on the other side”. The ridiculous redundancy aside, it is MANDATORY balance as opposed to the “balance” of the free market.

As with all liberals, Bill has no understanding of the free market when he says, “..there’s always been a lot of big money to support the right wing talk shows..” (Ignore the fact that liberals like Mark Green put up “big money” for the failed “Scare America” radio channel.) This “big money” comes from one vital component that the socialist screamers will never have.. an audience. This “big money” comes from advertisers who want to present their products to the biggest market that they can. The reason radio loser/comedian Franken ran for the Senate was so that he could expand the audience of people who recognize him in public into the double digits for the first time.. (Liberal dichotomy factor: Franken wasn’t funny as a comedian, now that he is a “politician”, he is hilarious..)

Bill tried to stumble into something remotely resembling the truth when he said, “..lets face it, you know, Rush Limbaugh is fairly entertaining even when he says things that I think are ridiculous..” He has located the missing element, “entertaining”. The morose morons of the brown shirt brigade are so humorless and uninformative that they can’t even “entertain” each other. The liberal audience is always available, it’s not like they are busy with things like work, so if they could at least present a palatable product for consumption, this “Rush” to censorship wouldn’t be necessary..

I always found Bill Clinton to be most “entertaining” while he was saying things that I KNEW (not “think”) were “ridiculous”.. Isn’t it “ridiculous” when someone who routinely says such “ridiculous” things as “it depends what the definition of ‘is’ is..” has the audacity (of hope) to say that anyone else says “ridiculous” things?

The “Fairness Doctrine” isn’t likely to disappear anytime soon. The liberals have enough collectivists in office to either surreptitiously or overtly slide this stinker onto the front burners. Within the past two years, a number of liberal luminaries have been pounding the progressive drums and sending up the socialist smoke signals in hopes of resurrecting this censorship.

Richard (call me “Dick”) “Turban” Durbin (L-IL.) in June of 2007 said, “It’s time to reinstitute the Fairness Doctrine”. His opinion on this matter was shared at the time by John Kerry (L-MA) who said that he would unquestionably vote for the Fairness Doctrine before he votes against..

On June 24, 2008, “Nuremberg” Nancy Pelosi (L-CA) told reporters that her fellow Democratic representatives did not want to forbid the reintroduction of the Fairness Doctrine because “the interest in my caucus is the reverse..” When asked specifically by reporter John Gizzi, “Do you personally support revival of the Fairness Doctrine?”, the “Princess of the Porcelain Puss” said, “Yes.”

On October 22, 2008, Jeff “Bolshevik” Bingaman (L-NM) said, “all stations should present a balanced perspective and different points of view.” He added, “..discussion was at a higher level and more intelligent in those days than it has become since.” As someone who looks too much like John Kerry (Think: Easter Island..) and as a carrier of the flaming flambeau of today’s liberal regressive-ism, he firmly places himself within the “since” category.

On February 4,2009, Debbie “Socialist” Stabenow (L-MI) said to liberal Bill Press (who apparently has unfettered access to the airwaves unlike so many of his Marxist contemporaries..) that “..it was time to bring back the Doctrine.” And “..it’s time to be bringing accountability to the airwaves.”

Stabenow’s “expertise” in the area of the Fairness Doctrine comes from being a former social worker before becoming part of the Finance Committee and the Budget Committee. (Note how well she has performed relative to the “budget and financial” mess that the “economic stimulus package” is allegedly “addressing”..) She also is part of the Agricultural Nutritional and Forestry Committee. This irrelevant body of “work” leads me to wonder if there is any “conflict of interest” relative to (I wish I was Eugene) Deb’s diatribes since her significant other is one Thomas Athans. Athans founded and was the CEO of uber-liberal “Democracy Radio” (Remember, definitional inversion.) who later became the Executive Vice President for programming at Scare America.. (Talk about a job where making “busy work” is important..) Sounds to me as if her ox (and bank account) is being “AlGored” by the competition.

On Febrary 11, 2009, Tom Harkin, better known as Howard Dean’s idiotic on stage cheerleader during his “primary primal scream” back in January of 2004, said to Bill Press (STILL an oppressed liberal minority in the media..) “..we gotta get the Fairness Doctrine back into law again.”

Which brings us back to the February 13, 2009 chin wagging of Billy Bob Clinton..

In all of this progressive pother disguised as “fairness” there is one thing missing.. Why aren’t the liberals demanding “fairness” from the ridiculously liberally biased major television networks? (Not to mention the “impartial” print media..) I have yet to hear a demand from Durban for “fairness” from ABC. No puling from Pelosi for “fairness” from CBS. No bawling from Bingaman for “fairness” from NBC. No screeds from Stabenow for “fairness” from CNN. No howls from Harkin for “fairness” from MSNBC..

Until the left, the progressive paragons of the First Amendment and “free speech” until you disagree with them, finally decides to address the one thing missing from their “fictitious façade of fairness”, the rest of us will see their posturing as yet another attempt to disguise the goosestepping that they demand with a perverted progressive pride..

The New Enlightenment

The ink is almost dry upon the parchment, the dastardly deed is just about done. Without the help of “Axis Sally” Snowe, “Tokyo Rose” Collins (affectionately known as “Maine’s Morons”) and Arlen “Judas” Specter, (Keep in mind that Judas was the Apostle in charge of the “money bag” until he betrayed Jesus and then bumped himself off. Foreshadowing, Arlen?..) this “economic stimulus package” would have probably suffered a justifiable third trimester abortion. It will be interesting to take a deeper glance into what “rewards” have been sinisterly interlarded into this bulbous bill which will now be diverted to the great states of Maine and Pennsylvania due their elected “Republican” servants who voluntarily drove the get away car during this heist..

Let’s take a look at one of the prizes that will be bestowed upon the constituents of Nancy Pelosi. A thirty million dollar part of the “economic stimulus package” will be heading to San Francisco in order to “protect the endangered salt marsh harvest mouse.” I will just consider that to be the proof to those of you who weren’t convinced that the liberals in San Francisco are rodents..

Multiple hundreds of billions of dollars, allegedly designated as “economic stimulators” will be assigned to combat sexually transmitted diseases, (most of which will be justifiably heading to the Denver Colorado area in order to combat the “sudden outbreaks” of same in the area due to the August 2008 Democratic Hajj..) smoking prevention, “low income” handouts for Medicaid, home insulation (somewhat redundant, the liberals have been insulating the lowest class for fifty years.) student loans, public school payoffs and too many other “benefits” for societies leeches, siphons and balls and chains.

Hidden in plain sight is $650,000,000.00 for the “digital television converter box” coupons. The liberals have to keep the lowest class both entertained and informed. Access to not only the Democratic “American Idol” but also the idiotic singing one, as well as the dissemination of the socialist talking points via CNN and CBS are of paramount importance. How about $300,000,000.00 for hybrid and electric golf carts for federal workers? I know that these kinds of things are mandatory for the likes of Jerry Nadler and Al Gore, but must we have to pay for them?

“Senate leaders have said that the total stimulus package will sustain some 3.5 million jobs..” I suppose that it is of no consequence that that is the number of jobs necessary to properly disseminate the “benefits” that have to be redistributed (stolen) from the middle class and magnanimously “gifted” to the liberal base who “stimulate the economy” in the same manner that Keith Olbermann stimulates memberships to Mensa International..

Have no fear, the “economic stimulus package will be offering nearly thirteen dollars a week in extra “take home pay” as part of the Obama “Making Work Pay” tax credit for the “middle class”.. This “economic stimulus package” should have to be renamed “Making Workers Pay”. In case you were worried that that hefty thirteen dollars a week might place you into a higher tax bracket, do not worry because next year that amount will be dropping to eight dollars a week..

The liberal “number crunchers” have been applying the “new math” to this bill with all of the necessary non-specifics needed to hood wink the hypnotized. “For every one billion dollars the federal government spends (note: not “invests”) on infrastructure projects translates to 35,000 jobs. ..at $150 billion dollars, do the math and that translates to more than five million jobs, based on the highway administration’s assumptions..” Here the idea of a liberal “Bridge to Nowhere”, based on “assumptions” (where has the liberal obsession with “time tables” and “exit plans” disappeared to?) is now a good thing.

When it comes to the economy and this bill’s effect upon it please consider the following: “..a major expansion of an existing tax break for homebuyers, approved by the Senate last week would likely be jettisoned. There was also pressure to scale back a Senate passed tax break for new car buyers..” Let see, the housing market is in a free fall, the car manufacturers are following suit and tax breaks directed at those who would consume these big ticket items are “jettisoned” in favor of liberal special interest leeches.

If we could have figured out how to give Maine and their two simpleminded Senators to the Canadians, we wouldn’t have this progressive punishment, this altruistic albatross, to contend with. The Canadians are far too intelligent to fall for such a stunt, so what other options would be available? It is time for “The New Enlightenment.”

The Enlightenment came about in order to move away from “The Divine Right of Kings”. A simple (in more ways than one..) majority has apparently elected a “King” who unquestionably believes that he is “Divine” so, so far, so good. The Enlightenment was essentially envisioned to bring about an age of rational discourse, (Name a rational liberal, then attempt to discuss something “rationally”..) personal judgement (Not available under the liberal caliphate, they know what is best for you.) and to bring about the end of the censorship of ideas (The Fairness Doctrine..) and the end of absolute state authority. (The Obama administration and the liberal lemmings in Congress.) It also relied upon the theories of liberty, reason, common sense and the principles of deism. (All of which are the equivalent of garlic, a cross with elbows locked and a wooden stake to the liberals..)

The Enlightenment was the source of critical ideas. For example, freedom, democracy and religious tolerance. (the only religion that the liberals “tolerate” other than liberalism, is Islam.) It also stressed the “scientific method” which “gathered observable, empirical and measurable evidence.. specific reasoning.” (You will note that the liberals have tried to utilize their own version of the “scientific method”, providing us with the predictably humorous results of Darwinism and global warming, to name a few..)

Immanuel Kant called the Enlightenment, “the freedom to use one’s own intelligence.” There is nothing more frightening to today’s leftists than the thought of anyone using their own intelligence.. de Tocqueville said, “In the French Revolution there were two opposite tendencies which must not be confused, one favored freedom , the other favored despotism..” It is not hard to figure out who is who when we apply this to today’s liberals.

Thus it appears that is time to begin the “New Enlightenment”. The elements are all in place as they were hundreds of years ago. In a story titled, “Economic Stimulus Deal, Some Winners, Some Losers”, we find, “..”Obama’s legacy will be defined by this package. If it fails, Obama himself admits there will be a new President four years from now..”

For the sake of what was once our proud country, I hope that the “New Enlightenment” will be the vehicle that brings that bit of clairvoyance to fruition..

Waiting For Us To Lead

After reading the transcript of the first press conference from America’s newly elected super hero, I have decided that I will first supply the quote by the Democratic deity, followed by the logical answer based upon conservatism and capitalism. You will note that these answers are diametrically opposed to the liberalism and Marxism that precedes each..

“In fact, local television stations have started running public service announcements to tell people where to find food banks, even as the food banks don’t have enough to meet the demand..” The “food banks” would certainly “have enough to meet demand” if the liberals hadn’t successfully indoctrinated and enslaved a huge Democratic voter base addicted to the mendicant mentality of the left. Due to the “lumpenproletariats” of the left, the nation’s food banks haven’t “had enough” for almost fifty years..

“..Our economy lost 598,000 jobs, which is nearly the equivalent of losing every single job in the state of Maine..” After hearing about the latest RINO/”maverick” viragos from Maine and their votes in “support” of the Obama imbecility, I can certainly hope that at least TWO jobs from Maine end up being lost..

“..I suggest speaking to one of the millions of Americans whose lives have been turned upside-down because they don’t know where their next paycheck is coming from..” In Obama-land, they will just join the multiple millions of Democratic voters who get their paychecks from the government the first Monday of every month. The left is willing to compensate you for life as long as you agree to be a docile, benign and permanent part of societies lowest echelon..

“..we can’t depend on government alone to create jobs or economic growth.. that is and must be the role of the private sector.. the federal government is the only entity left with the resources to jolt our economy back to life..” The obvious communist concentric circles of liberal “thought” aside, if the private sector has the role of creating jobs and economic growth, then why is it that the liberals purposefully and congenitally target these entities with penalties and exorbitant taxation? Because that way the “federal government is the only entity left with the resources to jolt our economy back to life..”

“It is only the government that can break the vicious cycle..” With the left, it is all about the creation and the perpetuation of “vicious cycles”. For example, the “vicious cycles” of welfare and government dependency have been their platforms for creating the proletariat society that they have dreamed of lording over since their first erection after reading the Communist Manifesto..

“..a $2,500.00 tax credit to pay for the costs of their college tuition and $1,000.00 worth of badly needed tax relief to working and middle class families..” Wow, where to start.. Of course we must keep the “liberal indoctrination stations” known as the campus or the madrassa, up and running. Certainly, that will help the economy.. One thousand dollars? Out of a trillion dollars, the left has parsed out a grand for “working” and “middle class” “families”.. “Working”? To the left, standing in line for free cheese and free needles is the equivalent of “working”. The liberal loafers (legal and illegal alike.) will be nabbing a grand as a payoff for their votes in November. “Middle class”? Remember the “Clintonian flexibility factor” when it comes to the left and their definition of the “middle class”? Keep in mind that these geniuses have trouble with the 1040A, (the “Short Form”) so their mathematical instability or inability puts their use of numbers constantly into question and becomes the justification for their fluctuation.. “Families”? Since when has the left done anything for “families”? Their “benefits” penalize “families” and reward the “single parent family” and that is before we even begin to discuss their “family planning”..

“..it only helped lead us to the crisis we face right now..” Here Barack O’Carter is referring to the “tax cuts that are targeted to the wealthiest few Americans”. Let’s move beyond the obvious point that the wealthiest Americans if unencumbered by the licentious liberals, already pay the overwhelming majority of the nations taxes and the liberal base, which the progressives constantly reimburse, pays almost none. No, what “helped lead us to the crisis we face now” is the Democratic majorities in both the House and Senate for the last two years who do the SPENDING and who have done the OVERLOOKING.. (Sub prime mess.)

“..direct investment in health care, (Medicaid) energy, (windmills) education (public schools) and infrastructure (liberal pork)..” Still trying to figure out how these “investments” help with credit, home ownership and stock prices.. You know, things that actually do have an effect on the “economy”.. He also mentioned (paid off) “..greater unemployment benefits and continued health care coverage..” Nothing spells economic recovery like unemployment “benefits”..

“..repairing our dangerously deficient dams and levees so that we don’t face another Katrina”.. A “disaster” that moved at five miles an hour for well over four days whose death toll was completely avoidable. Avoidable, if the generations that have voluntarily saddled themselves with the liberal’s “government will save me” mentality had put up any reasonable intellectual resistance. Then again, this HAD to be the federal governments problem, the liberal Democratic governments of Ray Nagin and Kathleen Blanco, the ones who left those hundreds of school buses parked outside of the ninth ward, as just one example, could not have been to blame..

“They’ll be jobs in building the wind turbines and solar panels and fuel efficient cars..” The “greening” of government.. Sure hope those wind turbines don’t end up anywhere near Nantucket Sound which is within eyesight of the Kennedy compound.. If the rest of us need fuel-efficient cars, why don’t the same standards apply to the liberal caliphate and Obama’s newly christened “Air Farce One”? Shouldn’t Obama take a page from our apparently “green” Secretary of State who never goes anywhere or does anything other than collect taxpayer “green”?

“..must be big enough and bold enough”.. Here the intellectually “hung like a fruit fly” leftists really start believing that size really matters. If the bill were half the size that it is at this moment, (wait……it just grew by another billion…..oops, there goes another billion..) but it effectively dealt with the economy and not “health care records” or “21^st century class rooms” (taught by members of the NEA..) that would be different. Size never matters to the liberals when it comes to the tossing about of other people’s money. It is always important to remember that the left never wants to solve a “problem”, their existence is based upon the “problem” mysteriously compounding and their empathetic (pathetic) desire to redistribute the wealth of others, regardless of the results, as their “final solution”..

“..my administration inherited a deficit of over one trillion dollars..because we also inherited the most profound economic emergency since the Great Depression..” Barack “inherited” all of this from Joe Biden. Barney Frank. Harry Reid. Nancy Pelosi. He always forgets to mention that while he sprays the air with his communist cologne of confusion..

“..a failure to act will only deepen this crisis, as well as the pain felt by millions..” Uh ohh, we have another liberal who “feels our pain”.. Next thing that you know, he will be embellishing the outfits of enthusiastic interns and his wife will turn into an insufferable shrew.. I am not so sure about that intern part, but..

“..find a way to set aside smaller differences in service of a greater purpose..” These “smaller differences” are the “details” or “progressive pork payoffs” caught by the opposition. The “greater purpose” is the “idealism over materialism”, “dreams over reality” and “emotion over evidence’ that fuels the collectivist Obama administration.

“..all countries are watching and waiting for us to lead..” Never mind that we are being led into the abyss and expected to follow as lemmings. Here we have America’s answer to Captain Edward John Smith and we are being tightly packed into today’s Titanic.. Believe me, everyone is watching and waiting out of fear, not confidence.

This “economic stimulus package” is the proof that the October Revolution of 1917 became the November Revolution of 2008 for the progressive post- Marxists..

The Need For Speed

The Democrats favorite “Botox Bimbo” (No, not Cher..) Nancy Pelosi, has come out firing on behalf of all of the rest of the liberal Liliputs relative to the “economic stimulus package”, or “Pelosi’s Pork”, whichever you prefer..

Those moon eyed moments of the “good feelings of bipartisanship” that the “Not so Dark Knight” brayed about during his $200,000,000.00 Communist conclave are apparently as few and far between as the Polyfibre plugs on Biden’s hollow melon these days. The Democratic equivalent of Joan Rivers, (in more ways than one.. not only because of the Botox but both broads are very funny.) “dismissed” calls for bipartisanship as “process arguments extraneous to passing a stimulus bill”.. As always, the left wants nothing more than to stimulate the government and if you question them relative to their redistributionist racket, you are greeted with the usual buckets of Bolshevik bile.

These are the same sanctimonious Socialists who were all about “extraneous process arguments” just a short time ago.. Things like “exit strategies” and “time tables” were the “slogans du jour” when they were slavishly following the prevailing pacifist winds pertaining to the War when a Republican was in office. These are the kinds of weasels that get away with “voting for the war before they voted against it”..

As a point of procedure, allow me to report that the Congressional Research Service in late 2008 placed the financial costs of both the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts at “around $550,000,000.00″. That is for both fronts and from 2003 onward.

Suddenly, the “Devils in the details” Democrats of the last five years who want to SPEND (not invest) nearly TWICE that amount in a vastly shorter amount of time consider logical debate over their whimsical wastefulness as “acrimonious” or “extraneous process arguments”..

Pelosi spoke to reporters at her “House Democrats retreat” at a Williamburg Virginia golf resort and country club. She stressed the “need for speed” relative to this “spend-a-thon”. “We must have a bill.. Washington seems consumed in the process argument of bipartisanship, when the rest of the country says they need this bill”.. Allow me to read between the lies by rearranging and coloring the California communist’s remarks.. “We abhor the process arguments of bipartisanship, the rest of this country club and its special interests need this bill.” Pelosi also “warned” Senate Democrats who might cut the educational spending (remember: this is an “economic stimulus package”..) earmarked within this bill. The “need for speed”? This comes from the fact that as little as a cursory glance at this bill will cause one to ask for details, and lots of them.. The left won’t abide such attention to detail anymore, that is just being disputatious..

Right on cue, one of the left’s “special interests” made its feelings known to the liberal caliphate. The NEA, the National Education Association (the Nationalist Euthanasia Abattoir..) sent a letter to Senate Democrats “threatening to lower their rating with the group”.. First of all, who else are the plebian public schools siphons going to vote for? Secondly, this is no idle threat, as the NEA understands full well the concept of lower ratings. These disgusting Democrats have lowered the rating of the American public schools with great success, so this something that they have first hand knowledge of and tangible experience in..

“These cuts are very damaging- (the House bill) was put together very carefully”.. That is what is frightening, that it was “put together very carefully”. So the “care” that was taken by the House should be sufficient, no one else needs to “care” because the liberals “care” enough for everyone. Again, the liberals know what is best for you and this time they want to give it to you with both barrels. Just don’t ask any questions, don’t look too deeply and don’t you dare disagree..

The Democrats have made some cuts within this bill that will effect the economy. At the request (demand) of the Democratic House dominatrix, the tax cuts within the package were slashed by $50,000,000.00. This will certainly have an effect on the economy, the effect that the liberals have been working towards since the Caligula/Gore years.

Pelosi has apparently been “cautioning that the next 72 hours will be critical to turn the tide of public opinion for or against the package”.. “Public opinion” has been against this package from its inception, the left has just chosen to ignore the opinions of those who differ. Nancy “Let Them Eat Cake” Pelosi has been living in denial for so long, she has to carry a passport from Egypt.

Obama himself chimed in again, “it would be inexcusable for Congress to get bogged down in distraction, delay or politics as usual..” This didn’t stop the liberals from following that exact plan of attack upon America while the last administration was at war and troops were in harms way. They “care for the troops” (in their own perverted way) and if you giggle at that statement you are “questioning their patriotism”. (Yes we are, actually..) We, who have the nerve to disagree with the bloated Bolshevik (no I am not talking about Al Gore.) Behemoth which has so very little to do with the economy, which has been forwarded by the collectivists, are “acrimonious” and we “argue extraneously”..

Even an imbecile like Joe Biden can see that the liberals will “face political repercussions in 2010″ for encouraging this economical euthanasia. However, it is hard to consider the opinion of someone who a few moments later said, “If we do everything right, if we do it with absolute certainty, there is still a 30% chance we’re going to get it wrong”.. This laughable liberal logic chopper is the Vice President of the United States of America. Let’s try to think this one through, if you “get everything right”, isn’t the chance that you’re going to get it wrong at 0%? If “everything is right”, isn’t nothing wrong? Relative to his “repercussions” remark, I suppose that we have to take into consideration that a blind squirrel will find a nut every once and a while..

Then again, a few moments later he said, “when it works, as I am absolutely convinced it will, I’m absolutely convinced..” Hold on, isn’t this the same Joe Biden who was just 70% convinced a little while back??

Biden stumbled on, “the consequences are too great for the country to allow politics to prevent action”.. Politics could prevent catastrophe. The country and some responsible legislators are concerned about the consequences of this action.. It is always important to remember that “results” are insignificant to the left. It is always about “the movement, man..” “Action” is all that matters, the resultant carnage is never applicable to the leftists.

Biden seemed almost upset, saying, “you’re going to be nailed in ads” (in 2010).. If Biden is so concerned about the Democrats who support this bill being “nailed in ads” in 2010, then why doesn’t he and the left engage in the dialogue that others in his party have termed “acrimonious” or “extraneous arguments”? If he knows that they are going to be “nailed”, isn’t he acknowledging that there is too much within this bill that needs some serious reconsideration?

Biden, the first Vice President who having stuck his foot in his mouth with such frequency, suffers from “Athlete’s tongue” said, “the only thing we can get wrong (is) demonstrating to the American people that we’re thinking small and politically.. you (House Democrats) have not, you’ve thought big..” That is the problem that the left refuses to acknowledge, they are thinking too big and more importantly, too far away from the point of an “economic stimulus package”.

Again, the liberals that accused the last administration of “rushing in” firmly insists that “rushing in” now is the thing to do. Biden as well, doesn’t pick up on the fact that it is the “thinking big” portions of this bill put in place by the Democrats, which has the nation cringing. Remember Joe, that whole 30% thing that you talked about a few moments ago? Enjoy your nut, you were right for once..

 

Rewarded For Failure

Even at this early stage of the “Great Obama Experiment”, an experiment that certainly calls for a postpartum abortion, the President has to be exhausted. Simultaneously he has been throwing tantrums and dancing the “Socialist Samba” over his “economic stimulus package” which is beginning to smell more like Dahmer’s refrigerator with each passing moment..

The latest publicity stunt from a man whose political career is nothing more than a publicity stunt, is his collectivist command that these “bailout” firms should cap their executives pay at a half a million dollars a year.

“This is America, we don’t disparage wealth..” Obama intoned. Allow me to finish the sentence for O’Carter: “but as a reprobate redistributionist, I damned well DO disparage the wealth of others..”

Obama, the progressive paladin, continued on, “What gets people upset is executives being rewarded for failure.. especially where those rewards are subsidized by U.S. taxpayers..”

A few thought spring to mind. Will Obama have the same outlook about rewarding failure as he cashes his first Presidential paycheck? Obama and his liberal cohorts can’t be serious about suddenly being so concerned over “rewarding failures that are subsidized by U.S. taxpayers” when they have personally ushered in trillions of dollars in wasted taxpayers subsidies with their “War On Poverty”.. On that note and since the left is so fond of surrender, can we please sign some treaty or pass another useless U.N. resolution in order to end this “War”? If not, I still await the liberal “exit strategy” for a peaceful end to this liberal hostility directed at the middle class tax payers for the last fifty years..

Obama continued on, “For top executives to award themselves is not only in bad taste, it’s bad strategy..” How odd that this is coming from a “top executive” who is still recovering from the hangover from his $200,000,000.00 communist coronation.. Even at this earliest of stages, it is safe to say that Obama definitely knows what he is talking about when he chastises anyone about “bad strategy”..

The obvious Democratic double standard of course must apply to everyone else except for the grandiose grandstanders of the left. If you limit your example to Obama alone, his “legal” taxpayer provided salary falls just short of this “cap” for those who are in the private sector. The “freebies”, the “swag bags” and all of the “glad handing” that he has already gotten is completely unaccounted for, but the standards that the left demands of others is never applicable to themselves.

These histrionics shouldn’t be a surprise to the capitalists who have actually, as Mike Pence said, invited “the 800 pound gorilla of government into your boardroom”. They asked for it and now they are getting it.. The remedy for all of this “accountability” that is being bandied about by the progressives is quite simple.

Quit.

Quit and become a liberal politician. (Or a liberal “entertainer”. No one cares how much you make as long as you repeat the proper Marxist mantras..) Then quit again and become a “consultant” or a “lobbyist”. Then you must start giving speeches and taking all sorts of bribes and payoffs knowing that the guys who would “investigate” you are the guys who will themselves be lobbyists and/or consultants in a few years or so..

First become a liberal politician. Let’s take the liberal leader as an example. The guy who “turned down Wall Street” in order to become a “community activist”, while as a lowly Senator managed to land, with the help of a felonious friend Tony Rezko, a stately mansion in an exclusive part of town for the paltry sum of nearly two million dollars. The Obama tax returns from 2006 claimed one million dollars in income. The 2007 returns? Try four million two hundred thousand dollars of income.. Not too bad for 143 days of “work” and by work I mean “voting present”..

Next you can start towards the rewarding and completely unscrutinized world of “consulting”. Here our liberal politicians learn the art of “multi-tasking” as every one of them simultaneously “consult” while they sit on couple of dozen bogus “boards”, while hitting the “dinner and speech” circuit. This is when your off shore bank accounts star to swell to the size of a typical Al Gore breakfast..

For the sake of argument, we will allow that you have been following the headlines of late, so the exploits of Rangel, Blagojevich, Richardson, Geithner and Daschle should still be somewhat fresh. (With all of these monetary liberal hi jinks by so many of the Socialists, it almost makes one pine for the halcyon days when the last liberal embarrassment in the White House concerned himself with little else other than playing “Hide The Willy”. Almost, but not quite..) (That’s not even taking into account the subpoenas senior Obama advisors have already received..) So, let’s look back at the “career” of the next beginner who is probably going to be in charge of the CIA, former Clinton crony Leon Panetta.

Since the beginning of 2008 ALONE, Panetta has earned more than $700,000.00 in “speaking and consulting fees”. Not to be outdone by the other liberal Obama nominees, he took these payoffs from “troubled financial firms and from a firm that invests in contractors for federal security agencies.”

In breaking Panetta’s payoffs down, we find $56,000.00 from Merrill Lynch, $28,000.00 from Wachovia and most interestingly, a $28,000.00 “honorarium” from the Carlyle Group which holds “a majority stake in the government consulting arm of Booz Allen-Hamilton Inc., which works for the CIA and other agencies..” Panetta also netted $60,000.00 in “governmental advisor fees” from the Pacific Maritime Association.

If anyone questions anything remotely resembling a “conflict of interest” or any other potential encumbrance, you can just repeat after Panetta. He was “unaware”. Or as Geithner said, “..should have known better.” Or as Daschle said, “Damn, you caught me..” Or as Clinton said, “it depends what the definition of ‘is’ is..” Take your pick, they all seem to have worked in the past..

Panetta, as busy as he apparently was, still managed to land $130,000.00 in “director’s fees” from the public affairs and lobbying group Fleishman Hillard. Panetta had a “questionable relationship” to a “non profit” (stop laughing..) firm named “EduCap, Inc.” Seems that the IRS is interested in EduCap Inc who, along with a “sister group”, donated $50,000.00 to Panetta’s “non profit” (I mean it, stop laughing..) group the “Leon and Sylvia Panetta Institute for Public Policy”. Places like the “Leon and Sylvia Panetta Institute for Public Policy” for the sake of honesty should have to be renamed “Another liberal money laundering-mat”. EduCap Inc is doing well enough to have at least one corporate jet which provided flights to Tom Daschle and others.. Are you beginning to get the picture?

With a Panetta or a Geithner as your example, you needn’t sweat it anyway even if you had the steeple peeking out from your behind. You would end up answering to the “Office of Government Ethics” or the “Senate Intelligence Committee”..

So that is my recommendation for you. Give up on the idea of creating wealth, become a sanctimonious liberal politician like Obama, etc., and begin taking and redistributing the wealth of others that way you can properly be “rewarded for failure”..
