Obama Concedes Public Healthcare Option! But, As You Guessed, Liberals Are Unhappy

This is no less than amazing to me. Never did I think that the gangsters we now have in Washington would dare concede to public interest.

I'd like to thank all the brave men and women who showed up the at the protests and made their voices heard. You are the true voices of America, representing the Democracy that your forefathers fought and died for. Tell Pelosi to kiss it, YOU are the real Americans!

I'd also like to thank the "Blue Dog" Democrats; liberals with a bit of sense. Old-school liberals, I've always called you; ones who realize that the haughty, high-handed, self-important Bolsheviks in office now have completely lost it.

Again, a huge thank you to all involved. Tis but a small step, but a major highway is built a few feet at a time.

Nancy Pelosi - Freedom Of Speech "Un-American", Apparently

Nazi, err...Nancy Pelosi, is the epitome of ironic idiocy. When duly concerned American citizens spoke out against the shoddy, broken healthcare reform bill, a clear exhibition of free speech, Nancy Pelosi referred to the dissenters as "Un-American".

Ho hum. I don't even think Democrats care what the hell Nancy Pelosi thinks or says anymore, much less a bunch of Americans that are genuinely interested in how their futures may (or may not) pan out in the long run.

We believe it is healthy for such a historic effort to be subject to so much scrutiny and debate," Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Hoyer (D-Md.) wrote in a USA Today opinion piece published today.

Riiiight. These are the same people that would accuse you of being a Nazi or racist if you dared speak against anything the Holy One attempted to put into action.

"However, it is now evident that an ugly campaign is underway not merely to misrepresent the health insurance reform legislation, but to disrupt public meetings and prevent members of Congress and constituents from conducting a civil dialogue," the two leaders wrote. "These disruptions are occurring because opponents are afraid not just of differing views -- but of the facts themselves. Drowning out opposing views is simply un-American."

Nothing but classic double-talk from everyone's favorite Speaker Of The House. In case you haven't noticed, Pelosi, there is no such thing as "civil dialogue" in your current administration, which is one reason these people are so pissed off. As for the facts, the administration has barely even presented facts in a cogent fashion. Until then, people have every damned right to be mad, and mad they are. I won't even begin to go into your little comment concerning "opposing views being Un-American", you fascist witch.

Pelosi and Hoyer, calling the enactment of health insurance reform "a defining moment in our nation's history," point to plans that have passed through three House committees. Based on this work, they say, they will "produce one strong piece of legislation that the House will approve in September.

Pelosi is right, this truly is a "defining moment in history". When any dissenters are referred to Un-American Nazis, we've delved into a form of government tyranny the likes never seen before. We've never been misinformed and downright lied to as we've been lately. The health plan includes the coverage of illegal aliens, not that they didn't have gold-plated medical care already.

You're right, Pelosi. This is truly a defining moment in American history.,0,5370363.story

RINOs Confirm Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor

And people are surprised? You'd have to be very naive to think that there was any chance in hell she WASN'T going to be appointed. It's the same claptrap as always - Democrats push in a largely unknown constituent with a shady background, "Republicans" pretend to care and oppose the nomination, Democrats accuse "Republicans" of being racist, "Republicans" give in and take it up the back end.

The Senate confirmed Sonia Sotomayor Thursday as the first Hispanic justice on the Supreme Court The vote was 68-31 for Sotomayor, President Barack Obama's first high court nominee. She becomes the 111th justice and just the third woman to serve.



She replaces retiring Justice David Souter, liberal named by a Republican president, and she is not expected to alter the court's ideological split.

Letter From The Boss

I wish I knew who to credit; it's circulating around the internet but I can't find a cited source. If you know who wrote this, please let me know and I will give credit where credit is due.

Letter from THE BOSS



So, this is what I did. I walked through our parking lot and found six 'Obama' bumper stickers on our employees' cars and have decided these folks will be the ones to let go.. I can't think of a more fair way to approach this problem. They voted for change, I gave it to them.

Birthers, We Have Bigger Fish To Fry

The post I'm about to make may very well have me regarded as a heretic in the conservative community. Screw it.

Due to Obama completely ignoring the controversy surrounding his birthplace and making no attempt whatsoever to rectify the situation, I think it's a foregone conclusion that he was not born in Hawaii.

However, ladies and gentlemen, this is the least of our worries. It pains me to see so many people wasting their time with the whole long-form birth certificate ordeal when we have a full-blown Marxist administration running the country. Before our very eyes, we've seen the majority of the large industries nationalized, and many more are on the way very soon.

Who cares about a birth certificate? IF the real certificate proves he was born in Kenya, what does that really mean? There are two outcomes - 1. The Constitution is upheld and Obama is kicked out of office, or, 2. The Constitution is amended and Obama is allowed to stay in office. Hey, it worked for Arnold Schwarzenegger, why can't it work for Obama?

Moreover, if this really comes to fruition and Obama is made to resign, what happens next? Is everyone else forced to resign, as well? No. We will still have the very same adminstration in power. You think Obama controls everything? You thought wrong, and he's far from the most dangerous person in government. He's a hood ornament, a display piece. He has very little power in the grand scheme of things and making him step down will frankly mean screw-all.

We must channel our efforts into other things - National health care, amnesty for illegals, the nationalization of the car industries, cap and trade, the list goes on. These are the things we need to be worried about, not some silly birth certificate. I frankly don't care if Obama was born on the Moon, it means nothing.

Just some food for thought.

On Cash for Clunkers and Keeping Up With The Jones's

Cash for clunkers, or should I said, Dough for Dummies, is seemingly the victim of bipartisan opposition this week; nearly threatening to filibuster the government's new little cash cow. Obama has never run so much as a lemonade stand, I seriously doubt he'll be a successful car salesman. Thankfully, a few folks in the Senate seem to understand that.

In case you've been living in your bomb shelter for the past few weeks, which I wouldn't blame you for, Cash For Clunkers is another government/corporate backscratching scheme that allows drivers to trade in perfectly good automobiles in exchange for a voucher to buy a brand new, overpriced vehicle that gets a little better gas mileage. The vouchers range in value from $3500-$4500 depending upon how much of an increase it is from your old car in terms of fuel efficiency.

This is a very foreign concept to me, then again, I'm a huge cheapskate and am very conservative with money. Why. In. The. Hell would you trade in a perfectly functionable automobile, a few minor repairs notwithstanding, for an ObamaCo voucher from the government to buy a brand new car? Why are people so obsessed with new and shiny things that they're willing to go into debt to have them? Why is ego-stroking a number one priority over common sense for so many people?

You see, this is a very, very big reason why this country is in the financial shape it's in now. Both people and the government seem to have forgotten the meaning of money. Thanks to ridiculously low interest rates and Adjustable Rate Mortgages, in the past eight years, far too many people have been trying to live far above their means. This whole fiasco is what created the credit/real estate/housing bubble, and it was the very same faulty system that caused it to burst. People still don't seem to understand the concept of, "If you don't have it, don't spend it". They must have taken the same economics course Obama did - Can't afford it? Print/borrow/credit more money.

I'm fully aware that I'm going off on a tangent here and I mean to. I am so sick of ordinary people attempting to be extraordinary spenders. What is the point? Does money mean so much to you that you'd rather go into debt buying a brand new car than sending your kids to college? Would you rather buy a boat than put food on the table? Who is going to pay for all of this if you all of a sudden passed away? Your kids? Your wife? Are you that selfish and inconsiderate? You sit back and you complain about the greedy Wall Street brokers and the bankers when YOU'RE the very ones enabling them to do what they do. They screw around with YOUR money because you let them; hell, you basically tell them to! By no means am I talking about everyone here, but there are a very large number of people whose parents apparently didn't tell them, "Little Johnny, money doesn't grow on trees, son!".

OK. Whatever, back on topic. Sort of. You think they're finished with the housing foreclosures? You think they're finished kicking people out of their apartments? What happens when these very same idiots that decide to go into debt buying a new car, because their old one had a dent and the air filter needed replacing, need to decide between the car and and a roof over their heads? What do you think they're going to choose; if they have an IQ higher than a residential speed limit, that is. A colleague of mine brough this up to me, and it certainly is worth mentioning.

This little cash cow, simply put, is yet another Government/Corporate backscratching gig; same one that's been going on for the better part of a century. Do you think they're doing this in YOUR best interest? This little plan is to trick more gullible keeping-up-with-the-Jones's type folks into accruing more debt so that the car companies can pay back those enormous loans of YOUR money that the government used to bail them out. The entire process is self-defeating, but is in perfect sync with the Federal machine; screw people over and take their money.

Win/win for them. Lose/lose for you. Put your money back in your damned pocket.
