Another Stimulus "Swindle" Coming

Joe (Biden) has let the cat out of the bag. He says the economy was “much worse than we thought we had inherited,” completely ignoring it was CREATED by his Democrat friends in order to get Obama and lots of other democrats elected, so as to do a bloodless (I think) coup to take over the United states government. It might be true that it IS “worse than expected.” They may well have miscalculated just how bad to make it, thinking they could easily “solve” the problem. But their Keynesian approach has just made it worse, and they won’t admit it. They think they can do “more of the same” and make things better. Brace yourselves; it’s only going to get worse unless they start thinking and abandon their Keynesian approach, lower taxes (a proven method) and let the “private sector” do it (something they’ll never do). "Those who pushed through this year's $787 billion fiscal 'stimulus' [swindle -RT] seem to be counting on the American people's short memory. Wasn't it just last year that we were told, repeatedly and with stark emphasis, that this economy was the "worst" since the Great Depression? That was the pretense for not only the stimulus, but for the federal takeover of the U.S. auto industry and the quasi-takeover of the U.S. financial industry. It's also the underlying premise for both nationalized health care and massive new taxes to cut CO2 emissions. If the stimulus passed, the White House vowed, unemployment would peak at 8%. Today, it's 9.5% — and rising."  (IBD Editorials)

No Lobbyists; Riiight!

They held a fund-raiser one night where lobbyists were not invited. “Due to Barack Obama's ban on donations from lobbyists, there were no lobbyist contributors at a Thursday night fundraising dinner for congressional Democrats headlined by the president. But Friday morning was a different story. Democrats organized a $5,000-per-person Friday morning Issues Conference at the same Washington, D.C., hotel where the previous night's dinner was held, and let lobbyists know that their presence — and their contributions — would be warmly welcomed.” How they got around that is that Obama did not speak at the morning meeting. This is the kind of “Chicago thug” politics we can expect for at least the next four years. (News Max)

ACORN To Run Census

“Iowa Republican Rep. Steve King introduced an amendment that would bar the Census Bureau from disbursing taxpayer funds to the activist group ACORN — but Democrats immediately squelched the measure, King disclosed.”  (News Max) ACORN is under indictment for election fraud and other kinds of corruption (and I’m talking abut their TOP officers, not just “low-level employees”), but that (as usual) makes no difference to Democrats. for my part, if an ACORN rep comes to my door he/she isn't going to get in, for ANY reason.  (Just common sense)

Newspapers Failing

And they can’t figure out why, mostly because they are “in denial.” My nephew told me the “Indianapolis News” was gone, while the "Rocky Mountain News" is likewise gone. I well remember the failure of the “Indianapolis Times,” one of the early victims. Old "Rocky" employees are (again) starting a paid web site as a means of still being able to use their writing skills to make a living. I wish them well, although their idea of why their newspaper failed is wrong. People are just getting tired of the same old liberal claptrap in their pages and the same fate will likely befall their web site, as it did their first one last year if they don’t change that. It's not just the "Rocky Mountain News" and the "Indianapolis News." It's newspapers all over the world. The "Seattle Post-Intelligencer" is also closing, as are several San Francisco papers. The "New York Times" is "bleeding cash" and may not last another year. The "Los Angeles Times" is also in trouble. Many other papers in the U. S. as well as other countries, whose demise doesn't make nearly as much noise when they fail, are going "down the tubes."

The entire newspaper industry is the "buggy whip industry" of today as "time moves on." They are failing partly because of the Internet, where you can get news directly from both local and news sources in other countries without the Associated Press as a “middle man,” but mostly because of the liberal CONTENT. They just don’t recognize that. There is liberal content on the Internet today, too. But you aren’t forced to read it as you are when your only choice is your local newspaper (which is liberal-leaning) and the (likewise liberal-leaning) national news media on “over-the-air” television. That is also changing, as Fox News (the only cable network today that tells both sides) creeps up on them. They’re (rightly) frightened of Fox, for the same reason liberal politicians “wet their pants” at the mention of Sarah Palin’s name. They (and she) tell the TRUTH about what’s happening today unashamedly—and they can’t stand that. (Just common sense)

Pesticides Are Bad!

That's what they say. But isn’t that the whole idea? If they weren’t bad for pests, what GOOD are they? So they’re bad for humans, too. So don’t use them on humans. Use them carefully and keep them away from humans. They banned DDT in most of the world to save a few lives lost by its careless use (rather than stop its careless use). So MILLIONS of people died of Malaria, which DDT had all but eradicated. Malaria is again a major problem because, while we DO have an effective pesticide that DID almost eradicate it, we refuse to use it. Stupid! (Just common sense)

Nuking Korea?

Maybe. Then maybe it’s only a contingency plan to use if that pot-bellied dictator carries out his irrational threat to “go to war” with the United States (and the world) if we stop and search ONE of his ships. If he does, he’s a dead man and his entire country will be a steaming pile of something else than the steaming pile of “brown stuff” it is now. This man is completely insane if he thinks he has ANY chance of winning a war with the United States. Not even a nuclear war. What does he have? One or two nuclear devices he has just now figured out how to deliver (maybe) to a target? Compared to the thousands of nuclear devices we have, coupled with our proven ability to deliver them to targets? I’d hate to be living in N. Korea today. (Just common sense)
