This is bipartisan politics at work?

Just what the hell are the politicians thinking? I can not believe what is going on in Washington.

Watch this video: Hat tip Freedom Thinker

 

This is enough to bring tears to your eyes. My wife and I have lost 500 K in equity in our home, my oldest daughter has lost 400 K, we are not begging for a bailout. My wife’s 401 has lost 45 K. That happened so fast there was nothing to prevent it. Mine was safe since when I retired I moved the entire 401 into asset protection funds, in fact when everyone else was losing their asses, I actually made money.

0bama and his administration did not read up on the great depression, or they did and think they have a better plan. They are repeating the mistakes made in 1939 just on a much bigger scale

My personal opinion is that at this moment 0bama is on the fast track to turning our country into a Hugo Chavez style country. He hates and ignores The Constitution, one of his cabinet members I think it was Emanuel described it as just an old piece of paper. It may be old but it has made and kept this country on the top of the heap for all these years. They seem hell  bent on destroying it all.

God help us and our country.

Tax day TEA PARTIES

9:35 am in Economy, Freedom, Media, National, Obama, Peacfull, Politics, Protests, Taxes, Tea Parties by skyzot63

All across this country there are Tea Parties springing up today, Tax Day. Over three hundred of them in all fifty states.

They are being largely ignored by the Old press. The White House says they don’t know if pres. zero is aware of the protests. Of course he is unaware, he pays no attention to the American people. This administration is so blindly obsessed with installing all of the socialist agendas that occupies 99% of pres. zero’s mind, that none of them see what is going on in this country.

Unlike the very frequent left wing protests we see in San Francisco and other cities, these will be peaceful and civil protests. No window breaking, cars burning, public fornication, defecating, urinating or any of the other disgusting things seen at the SF protests. No Code Pink hags to be seen, no disgustingly ugly Boobs not Bombs hags.

These are just people who are fed up with Uncle Government sticking his hand into our pockets time and time again. For this we will be classified as “Right Wing Extremists”. Dangerous people we are, just like the Vets who are coming home.

I thought the department of Homeland Security was formed to protect us not attack us. With Napolitano at the helm, doing pres. zero’s bidding and Holder at the Justice Dept and wanting to dis-arm all Americans, who knows where this administration is going to go next.

I can not wait for 2010 since there are going to be a hell of a lot of Democrats joining these Tea Parties. Many of them are beginning to regret drinking the Kool-Aid these tax hikes are hitting them too. Just wait until the cap and trade scam goes into effect. Today will not end the protests, they are just beginning.

When you put the clowns in charge, don’t be surprised when a circus breaks out. (Unknown but correct)

 

Don’t Shut Up.

12:52 pm in Conservatives, Constitution, Liberals, National, Obama, Politics by skyzot63

PJ TV has an excellent piece. Andrew Klavan demolishes the left’s argument that dissent is hate. I will not shut up.

With the 0bama Homeland Security secretary and 0bama declaring anyone who disagrees with them and the outrageous policies they are pushing, as radical extremists who must be avoided and kept an eye on.

I got news for you Mr. Zero and Homeland Security you are the extremists, This tactic of demonizing anyone who disagrees, or is a veteran owns guns, believes in the Second Amendment or just in general thinks you are all a bunch of  useless assholes, will not fly for long.

Look at the calendar 2010 is next year. You may be in for a surprise.  There could be a big surprise in 2012 you one termer.

Did we surrender?

8:27 am in Constitution, Democrats, Freedom, Liberals, Media, National, Obama, Politics, Saudi King, Super Power, The Bow by skyzot63

I was taught that a head of state only bows to another head of state when he surrenders. Of course, I was schooled when they taught history and civics and we were required to read the Constitution. This video is very, very troubling.

 

His administration is claiming that it was not a bow. The Lamestream Media is covering and/or ignoring the incident. They can deny it all they want, but anyone who sees the video knows exactly what it was.

Some are saying that this is proof that Obama is a Muslim showing deference to a Muslim King. I don’t know, I just did not like what I saw. The video will not be seen by those who depend on the MSM for their news.

Obama seems hell bent on destroying our Nations position as the main super power of the world. That comes as no surprise since the Demoncrats have been trying to do that for decades.

I do not trust this man who is posing as President of the United States. God help us all.

 

The Real Meaning of Earth Hour

I for one will be turning every light in the house and yard ON for this hour, I may just leave them on all night. The Greenies want to control and rule our lives. I will not drink the Gorebot’s KoolAid.

The Real Meaning of Earth Hour

By Keith Lockitch (March 23, 2009)

On Saturday, March 28, cities around the world will turn off their lights to observe “Earth Hour.” Iconic landmarks from the Sydney Opera House to Manhattan’s skyscrapers will be darkened to encourage reduced energy use and signal a commitment to fighting climate change.

While a one-hour blackout will admittedly have little effect on carbon emissions, what matters, organizers say, is the event’s symbolic meaning. That’s true, but not in the way organizers intend.

We hear constantly that the debate is over on climate change–that man-made greenhouse gases are indisputably causing a planetary emergency. But there is ample scientific evidence to reject the claims of climate catastrophe. And what’s never mentioned? The fact that reducing greenhouse gases to the degree sought by climate activists would, itself, cause significant harm.

Politicians and environmentalists, including those behind Earth Hour, are not calling on people just to change a few light bulbs, they are calling for a truly massive reduction in carbon emissions–as much as 80 percent below 1990 levels. Because our energy is overwhelmingly carbon-based (fossil fuels provide more than 80 percent of world energy), and because the claims of abundant “green energy” from breezes and sunbeams are a myth–this necessarily means a massive reduction in our energy use.

People don’t have a clear view of what this would mean in practice. We, in the industrialized world, take our abundant energy for granted and don’t consider just how much we benefit from its use in every minute of every day. Driving our cars to work and school, sitting in our lighted, heated homes and offices, powering our computers and countless other labor-saving appliances, we count on the indispensable values that industrial energy makes possible: hospitals and grocery stores, factories and farms, international travel and global telecommunications. It is hard for us to project the degree of sacrifice and harm that proposed climate policies would force upon us.

This blindness to the vital importance of energy is precisely what Earth Hour exploits. It sends the comforting-but-false message: Cutting off fossil fuels would be easy and even fun! People spend the hour stargazing and holding torch-lit beach parties; restaurants offer special candle-lit dinners. Earth Hour makes the renunciation of energy seem like a big party.

I am so tired of the Obama smoke and mirrors

U.S. Seeks Expanded Power to Seize Firms

I watched the circus on Capitol Hill last week. All those congress critters taking turns bloviating about the bonuses the AIG people recieved. It is all smoke and mirrors to draw attention away from the destruction that they, along with that Idiot Moron Obama, are bringing down on this country. Now this from WAPO:

Washington Post Staff Writers
Tuesday, March 24, 2009; Page A01

The Obama administration is considering asking Congress to give the Treasury secretary unprecedented powers to initiate the seizure of non-bank financial companies, such as large insurers, investment firms and hedge funds, whose collapse would damage the broader economy, according to an administration document.

The government at present has the authority to seize only banks.

Giving the Treasury secretary authority over a broader range of companies would mark a significant shift from the existing model of financial regulation, which relies on independent agencies that are shielded from the political process. The Treasury secretary, a member of the president’s Cabinet, would exercise the new powers in consultation with the White House, the Federal Reserve and other regulators, according to the document.

So as it is the government (Obama) can seize banks, now they (Obama) is taking the power to seize more financial firms. To top it off Turbo-Tax-Timmy is going to be in charge. This administration is never dull. They pass the bill which included the authorization for the bonuses. I got a bonus each and every one of the thirty five years that I worked for the company I retired from, I hope they don’t decide to come after them. There is some new Bullshit every day, Obama is breaking all the speed limits to take this country to third world status.

The administration’s proposal contains two pieces. First, it would empower a government agency to take on the new role of systemic risk regulator with broad oversight of any and all financial firms whose failure could disrupt the broader economy. The Federal Reserve is widely considered to be the leading candidate for this assignment. But some critics warn that this could conflict with the Fed’s other responsibilities, particularly its control over monetary policy.

The government also would assume the authority to seize such firms if they totter toward failure.

Besides seizing a company outright, the document states, the Treasury Secretary could use a range of tools to prevent its collapse, such as guaranteeing losses, buying assets or taking a partial ownership stake. Such authority also would allow the government to break contracts, such as the agreements to pay $165 million in bonuses to employees of AIG’s most troubled unit.

The Treasury secretary could act only after consulting with the president and getting a recommendation from two-thirds of the Federal Reserve Board, according to the plan.

So now they want the authority to take partial ownership of these companies. That sounds much like the auto companies. The government dictates that the car companies produce those stupid death trap “Green Cars” that no one wants to drive. Of course there are those here in California who have bought into the green (Al Gorebot) scam. I pity them if they are in an accident.

"We’re very late in doing this, but we’ve got to move quickly to try and do this because, again, it’s a necessary thing for any government to have a broader range of tools for dealing with these kinds of things, so you can protect the economy from the kind of risks posed by institutions that get to the point where they’re systemic," Geithner said last night at a forum held by the Wall Street Journal.

The powers would parallel the government’s existing authority over banks, which are exercised by banking regulatory agencies in conjunction with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. Geithner has cited that structure as the model for the government’s plans.

It is about time for Americans to take a look behind the curtain. We need to know who the puppet master is. Is George Soros pulling the strings? Is it Hugo Chavez? How about Putin or Amadinnerjacket? My money goes on Soros, he ges his fingers into everything related to the Democrat party. Someone is pulling the strings on this puppet that is temporarily residing, free of rent, in our HOUSE.

Time For A Good Rant

2:39 pm in California, Conservatives, Democrats, Economy, House of Represtatives, John McCain, Jonathan Kron, Liberals, National, Opinion, Politics, Republicans, Sarah Palin, Senate by skyzot63

I am sick of the Political system we have in this country. We have Democrats and Republicans, the two major players in the political process. There is almost no difference in them these days. The Democrats have become so radically liberal as to become dangerous to the survival of this country. The party just needs to become the Liberal Party. That way they could go ahead and absorb the Communist Party,The Green Party, Atheist Party and any other fringe party since the platforms are so similar.  With that change we would all know what and who we are dealing with, after all those who call themselves “Moderate Democrats” only want to raise your tax rates by 40% instead of 90%. The overall view of the party has become the mantra of bi-partisanship, which in liberal speak for “Do it our way now sit down and shut up”

Now we get to the Republican Party, the Grand Old Party. It has become a gaggle of weak sister compromising weenies. They have thrown the Conservative values of Ronald Reagan out the window. They now want to “Cross The aisle”  and cooperate  and “Get Along”. That is why I think The Republican Party should become The Conservative Party. Sweep away all the RINOS, yepper I’m talkin’ about you Specter, Collins, Snowe and you John McCain. My patience with moderate Republican’s has grown very short. GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE WAY!!!!

The Conservative Party needs to be built around people who have the values of people like Sarah Palin, Bobby Jindal and the future great Jonathan Krohn at CPAC. When a fourteen year old can get it, why the fuck can’t adults get it? In my book, the only time a conservative should cross the aisle, is to Bitch Slap a liberal for being either stupid or a liberal, they both work for me.

My days on this earth are approaching a close much sooner than I would have wished. If in the next few years it takes pitch forks and torches to take back our government, I have my pitch fork at the ready and I can make a torch in about five minutes. In my book, it is time to clean house in Washington, Sacramento and just about any other state capitol you would care to name. There are a few good Governors around, but they are Conservative before they are Republicans.

I don’t have a bucket of shit’s worth of respect for any of the politicians in power, either side of the aisle. We have needed Term Limits for a very long time. One stipulation on the term limits, let’s include all the entrenched beaurocrats also. The Government has been run by these non-elected fat cats for far too long. Clear them out, for decades they have continued their same agendas no matter who is in the White House. If you don’t believe it take a look at the State Department, the DoD, or any other department in Washington, there are people there who have been there for thirty of more years. Some of them most likely don’t even remember what job they are doing.

One of the biggest mistakes made in this country was allowing government employees to Unionize. Firemen, Police Officers, Air Traffic Controllers and all other government employees should not be allowed to go on strike. They should be well compensated for the work they do and the dangers they face. In my book school teachers are not paid enough, I’m talking about the teachers in the classroom the ones teaching our future generations. Not the fat cat administrators who sit in their big offices and set te curriculum for the classroom. They are the ones that are destroying the future of this country. They are changing history, if it is taught at all. Classroom teachers are restricted to the curriculum, it is based on the advancement tests, “teach to the tests” they are told. Our children and grandchildren are being indoctrinated in the liberal manor by the curriculum, the teachers have no choice if they want to keep their jobs. Oh wait, I forgot the TEACHER’S UNION another good reason to keep government employees from unionizing.

I think I have ranted enough today.

UW-Milwaukee Study Could Realign Climate Change Theory

Scientists Claim Earth Is Undergoing Natural Climate Shift

I am sure that the Gorebot and the part time employee at NASA Mr. Hansen will soon come out to refute this study. How dare some real scientists say such things, and look they have a better computer model than we do. Gorebot to Hansen “I told you to keep that software up to date, I mean this is the reason I invented the Internet.”

"Imagine that you have four synchronized swimmers and they are not holding hands and they do their program and everything is fine; now, if they begin to hold hands and hold hands tightly, most likely a slight error will destroy the synchronization. Well, we applied the same analogy to climate," researcher Dr. Anastasios Tsonis said.

See that was Gorebot’s mistake, he let Teddy the Swimmer Kennedy into the global warming cabal.

"In climate, when this happens, the climate state changes. You go from a cooling regime to a warming regime or a warming regime to a cooling regime. This way we were able to explain all the fluctuations in the global temperature trend in the past century," Tsonis said. "The research team has found the warming trend of the past 30 years has stopped and in fact global temperatures have leveled off since 2001."

 

I think that may explain why I have been wearing thermals all winter and my pepper plants being so late to produce last year. Right now I could use a little global warming here in San Jose. fifty degrees at noon is nasty cold. The most recent climate shift probably occurred at about the year 2000.  Is there any and/or how much influence does human activity have?

"But if we don’t understand what is natural, I don’t think we can say much about what the humans are doing. So our interest is to understand — first the natural variability of climate — and then take it from there. So we were very excited when we realized a lot of changes in the past century from warmer to cooler and then back to warmer were all natural," Tsonis said.

It is amusing to watch the global warming scam slowly fall apart when confronted with real scientific truth. Pretty much like it is going to be with Obama. I just hope this country can survive and reject the take over and destructive policies of the Socialist Wing, (Read Obama) of the democrat party.
