THIS IS A MUST SEE MOVIE ON OUR NATIONAL SPENDING

 
I thought I had a fairly decent knowledge of the federal check kiting system known as our treasury department, but after seeing this... I now know how close I actually was... and how not close enough I was too. Give these guys a shout out for the fantastic job they have done helping educate the average citizen on what our system actually is and just how perilous our situation is.

Not For The Reality Shy: Where Obama's Spending Is Contrasted to Bush's

Photobucket
 
 
I was particularly disturbed one day recently listening to one of my regular talk radio programs when a guest speaker was on trying to battle with a Kool-Aid drinking progressive left-o-crat defending Obama's wealth spreading thus far, and wouldn't you know... it wasn't look long before point-the-finger games started reminding me of who we are dealing with fundamentally [ more mental than fun... trust me].

TARP came up as [of course] being blamed on Bush, which... he wasn't a strident defender of - he just saw it as a choice that had to be made then. But ultimately the truth is [as the speaker reminded the liberal] the sitting president gets blamed for what happens - good or bad. Then finally got to the real point of leverage - we have a liberal majority in both houses that are all for the expansion of government by any means necessary, this was the lead in to a perfect storm of unprecedented spending.

I think the article speaks for itself with out the spin... Even before the Omnibus[ted] spending bill spread like wildfire through the house and then onto the Senate, the CBO had mentioned it would be better for the economy to not have done anything at all than to engage the illusion of spending ourselves out of debt. If people cannot do it - How does the government think they can? Are they supernatural? I guess that is where progressive secularist faith lies - in largess. In less than 100 days this leftist has driven onto the books 2 generations of debt - completely contrary to what our founders laid out in the Federalist Papers about the management of the size of government, and not passing on our current debt to future generations - which may be a constitutional argument under equal protection; which would be a very valid argument at this point and time.

OBAMA: First 72 Hrs. Off And Spending!

Photobucket
-Washington DC
 
 

Well, it took no longer than the extra shine of His Majesty's inauguration [sorry] coronation to wear off the average American citizen before the not-so-cloak-and-dagger tactics start to shape up around President Hotlink's spending agenda, which to say the least is [well...] appallingly huge. I'll give him this... he is consistent when energized to do so, apparently to him largesse will accomplish two thing: bankrupt the nation so we have to come to the drawing board with a "new" solution b) show European's that Robin Hood can be a true story... even if foisted upon a people that know socialism by any stripe you can call it?

I have said this plenty in my blogs... government largesse must and cannot ever become the will and destiny of a people. Why is it liberals don't get basic math - you figured because their inherently secular minds obviously don't have spiritual matter weighing in they have more room for simple math, but it remains clear that a reduced tax base cannot support increased government spending. The Associated Press reported today that approximately $3-4 trillion [yes... trillion] will be needed to unvex our markets - what a foolish and dangerous trend we've staged here. Here... let's put this in perspective for you... The U.S. Government currently brings in about $3.3 tril. in gross tax revenues, just where is this money going to come from? The illusions that war time spending is is the problem is just Code Pink heated rhetoric, the reality it is a very small part of our GDP, less than 11% so bringing the troops home before the mission is accomplished is just mindless and reveals a glaring ignorance or war time tactics and policies.  Apparently liberals will don shoe polish to accessorize the boot that kicks them square in the rear when it comes to matters of enforcement of principle - all in the prusuit of pacifisity.
 
 

Americans it is never more apparent than it is now that we not only need to be vigilant, but assertive in our defense on known truth... justice, and righteousness. Because we just let the kennel doors wide open and those dogs are barking... loud.  Let's show them to the toothless ankle-biters they really are by batting down their leftist advances when they reveal themselves. The Bluffington Huffington Post had the unmitigated gall to take the attitude that conservatives just need to go somewhere and "shut up" because they won and we lost – [how incredibly naive and childish] like the election was supposed be the magic Jedi Mind trick that just disarms conservatives, and we go home the not-so-casual victims of an electoral drive-by lobotomy – Here… let me help you nutters with that… no, "we'll be back"... and God in Heaven help you when we do… because it won’t be pretty.

Santa Flawed: Bush Caves On Motor City Bail Out

Photobucket
 
 -Washington DC, today.
 
 
 

In what will probably go down as absolutely no surprise whatsoever, is President Bush's year end soirée for the jet-set Motor City Bon Vivant's in the form of their long awaited reparations for damage due to the unions, and citizens who were bigots and discriminated against their own national brands openly by flaunting their choices of better made cars by the German's and the Japanese... even once maligned Korean product is raising the skeptical eye. But no, the legacy of "kinder..." and "gentler" somehow has co-opted this role of big government accountability avoidance. Not only are there no take-away points from this entitlement oriented action from the Fed, but it truly wars against the most basic and fundamental values that set America apart from any other nation... we have rules here, and the ones we don't cross are the one's where someone else picks up the tab for someone else’s debauchery - we don't do that here. This is why republicans lost in November, with lowered expectations... you can't disappoint. So there is nothing to be surprised about when we hear nuttiness from the left, but from within our party allowing policies to go on that are antithetical to our values is intolerable.

Undecided "Kennedy Dems" May Hold Key To McCain/Palin Success

Washington, D.C. - In what may not be a complete stunner, the resilient Senator from Arizona John McCain and his uber-controversial running mate Sarah Palin have closed the gap on the Obama campaign considerable to the point that more partisan polls are forced to report more accurately. Zogby, Rasmussen. AP all show McCain well within the margin of error by either trailing one or two points or dead even. Either way you look at it - this is a statistical dead heat, now for all the millions the Obama camp is pulling in, you'd figure that would buy them some breathing room, not. For universal proof there is a living God that rules in the affairs of men ... if not for the stodgy obstinacy of McCain to not go after Obama for his tax plan being anything but a cut... along comes Joe the Plumber with a simple question that undoes the contrived exuberance of experience and knowledge of Barack Obama into a devolving, downward spiral of the gaffe machine he tends to be unscripted.
 
Last night on Fox Madam De Rothschild was interviewed by Greta Van Sustren regarding the growing trend by democrat women to give McCain.Palin a more objective look... and they are not only doing it... they are voting McCain/Palin - not because of the insidious lies spread by the MSM and their visceral bias toward anything principled, but [go figure] they make sense. Obama's tax plan is a drag net that will leave no household unmolested. If about 38% of the population pays no taxes at all, then he lowers the taxable threshold down to $250,000.00 tell me how many more fish can be caught in that dragnet? The socialist model used by today's deluxe moral reprobate in the form if the garden variety marxist economist fails [like evolution pseudo scientists do] to take the plainly evident [being our capitalist model actually in use] and then noit account for the mancy facets of contributions form the depth of our middle-class, mainly small business and hog tying it with excessive and unnecessary taxes... this can have only one outcome, a frozen economy. Joe the Plumber unwittingly has dumbfounded the nutter elite with simplicity. I seem to recall scripture making that point somewhere in Psalms... but I tell you, more dems will see the light before this is all over with.

Investigate ACORN As A Criminal Enterprise? Attorney General Is Asked Today

Washington- Today a ranking Member of the Senate Judiciary Committee John Corwyn [R-Texas] wrote U.S. Attorney General Michael Mulcasey to inquire into possibility of pursuing criminal charges against ACORN aka, Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now... or Another Case Of Radical Nuttiness [as we conservatives known plainly to be.]. In a scathing two page rebuke the Senator cites the case history of ACORN of being nothing short a group of liberal agitators looking to falsely leverage election results by openly tampering with registrations.  
 
 
 
With approximately three weeks left until the general election the Obama camp has yet to vet Barack Obama's full participation with the radical group. He was the organizations Chief Counsel and did pro bono work for them during that time.  He also authorized a payment to them for about $800,000.00 earlier in the campaign. I simply do no think the MSM can play hear no evil, speak no evil... see no evil on this one. McCain needs to attack this relationship as it is ACORN's complicity here that runs deep in this housing sham we are currently doing the wrong thing and bailing out. Note to the McCain camp: It is this simple - Make Obama explain his affiliation and why he stands to benefit in this election from their tampering - and why should the people ignore it as it goes to character.

Obama's Tax Plan Is State Sponsored Transfer Of Wealth

Have you seen them? You know... the ad artfully spun by the Obama camp to get your television to talk out of the sides its mouth, all considering it never had one to begin with. The very same ad claiming that 2008 Presidential candidate and republican hopeful John McCain. They misrepresent McCain's ads in typical slight-of-hand rhetoric by the left as shamelessly pandering to big oil and business interests, when makes it look like he is a super trooper for the little guy. The truth is Barack Obama's tax plan would essentially neutralize business growth to the point of seizure. If you look really closely at the most strident claims in his plan... he isn't exactly hiding the fact that it is a massive tax trawl.
 
You catch more fish with a bigger net...
 
The Obama folks must think people are real, real simple. Of course... wait a minute. What am I talking about? Of course they do.... they are liberal "elite's" - right? They expect you to simply just look the other way and ignore the tragic consequences of ideological substitutions for sound economical reasoning while:
 
  • Obama and a liberal majority in both houses lower the threshold of taxation to $250,000 - that is a much bigger net to trap more fish.
  • Fail to take into account that almost 30% of the population doesn't pay any tax at all - effectively nullifying any stimulus he put into effect.
  • Increase business taxes that are already the 2nd highest in the world - this would encourage the migration of business to right-to-work states at minimum... at worse, out of the country.
  • Telling us how more people paying more tax is good for anything more than tax and spend antics - tell me how is this an actual tax break?
Perhaps the boundary challenged mind of the garden variety coffeehouse socialist has no problem considering that a tax break, afterall... they never claimed to be the party of moral clarity. They morally equivocate all manner of indecency with that which is just, proper, ethical, decent and right. Why should I expect them to believe for one moment that lowering the taxable threshold to $250,000 per household to think it isn't a tax break?
 
Is Obama that stupid? No... He knows precisely what he is doing.
 
If you are going to enact a radical change in a short amount of time... you have to be prepared to move swiftly. That is why our focus just on his election of the president by itself is a bit of a misnomer. We need to see the bigger picture... trust me, they do. These nuts have a very yellow press in their back pocket and the momentum can swing their way.  What is the quickest way to paralyze the middle class? Reduce their income by over taxing them... which in turn reduces personal spending... which in turn depresses local spending. You see where this is going... Barack Obama knows why his tax plan is they way it is. Because he is another socialist that knows a healthy middle class stands in the way of their socialist agenda.  The only way he can make a deep enough cuts into the economy is to freeze personal spending... that is why his net is as big and deep as it is. Be eyes wide... drinking the Cool Aid here can cost us, and cost us big time.

Bail Out Part II: A Fix That Could Work And Work Big

In resuming the review of issues that were mitigating factors in the carnage we are seeing now even in the last 24 hours we've seen the Fed have to step in and eschew the collapse of Washington Mutual, by slipping at the 11th hour and selling it to Chase Group. I cannot emphasize this enough, an immediate common sense intervention needs to occur. In the first part of my discussion, I highlighted the value in the establishment of a system of credit checks and balances that govern banks behavior. Secondly, rerouting authority to liquidate REO inventories to the FDIC and make them directly responsible and accountable for the orderly, fair and equitable transfer of default housing stock piles from the non performing asset category to a position banks can now begin to receive an injection of liquidity from the Fed on. This we cannot allow to have happen here:
  • Foreign Banks investment in domestic restructuring, that is a flat out transfer of wealth.
  • Cannot have the Fed step in and pay for something the private sector could prosper and quickly and more effectively.
  • Continue with an out modded credit system that is woefully inadequate and does not meet the market quirks of today.
  • Allow banks to issue non-secured debt to high walk away credit risks while home loans stay by-in-large unaccessible for no real reason. 
While it is commonly understood that we do not have a right to own a home, as taxpayers [however] we do have a right to have access to make this happen. Our system at present is not accessible, because of continued outside idealogical tampering, many will never see the American Dream in their lifetimes. They will be beholden to landlords for the rest of their lives, and that is not right. Now bad judgment is one reason... and no legislative act should interfere with personal growth. But at the risk of sounding like a drum beater, I have to just be frank. There are many voices within our own government who simply do not care if you ever own a home, and some act with impunity so that doesn't happen. All you have to do is look at what so-called "solutions" they provide when a real situation comes about that you can put two and two together.  We are constantly under siege by people who are so well insulated, they cannot feel or ever relate to these extreme changes in market volatility.
 
One of the considerations not to be overlooked is the fact that this is non-homeowner taxpayer money being used here as well. Why should they get stuck with a tab they had no part in. Of course one of the first retorts there will be the system is going down and it will take them with it if nothing is done, which merits value.  However, do we disregard the strength of the argument it's not my fight so.... ? No, of course not. But that is an ever strong advocation for a plan that allows for access. If taxpayers had access, with reasonalbe system controls and oversight. Taxpayers would stir the maret with thier investment in the home and small business would be the first to see the benefit.
 
To effect a quick change the need to:
 
 
  • Restructure our credit and lending structure first to give clear guidelines for taxpayers and banks expecially to be guided by, with the emphasis on your income being the prime determining factor in your credibility and set up rules for how much unsecured debt you can have owning a home and not owning a home, and loow for the flexibility for that to change as your lifestyle does.
  • Turn the REO inventories over to the FDIC to allow them to liquidate without real estate lobby interventionism.
  • Institute an across the board 25% write-down on the stated value of the loan balance of homes in super soft markets, and 7%-10% on the rest. Then chuck the "comps" system for housing values equivalence. Go back 40 years to county assosor values and the avergae rate of appreciation and use that as the forward guide with algorythms that account for modest increases due to populations density and demand.
  • Ban HELOC's [home equity lines of crdit] for use with vanity spending, the one consistant argument one both sides of the political fense has been that folks were keeping up with the Jones'. Their equity should be for education, opening a small business or retirement purposes. Your disposable and investment income should go to vanity expenses. You want the new car, do it the old fashoned way, earn it.
  • Cap the incomes of all Publically owned company CEO's as well as their net benefit packages, if you want an uncapped income, stay private and let the venture capitalists provide a solution for your grown needs. Once you go public, stability should be of paramount concern.
  • Put the dollar back on the gold standard, our currency cannot be worth what we say it is simply because we say it is. It needs to be at least 60% vested in gold reserves. That will settle softness in inflated consumer goods prices and housing prices and ease our national deficit considerably.

 If we just start there, I strongly believe we will be well on the way to not only a stronger tomorrow, but a safer one as well. But the shifty eyed back room tactics right now are telling us anything we're ok, and more like this is business as unusual.

Bail Out Fix: A Plan That Could Work And Work Big

Amidst the huddles of partisan strategizing and even more public finger pointing, there hasn't been one suggestion to come from either camp until late yesterday that was even remotely feasible. I'll have to say this; the republicans have an advantage with Congressman Boehner leading the charge to ferret out those who still think nationalizing the mortgage industry bailout is even remotely practical. Chief wolf crier Barney Frank's stood up and had the unmitigated gall to even think he could try to blast senate republicans for being the instrument on amenity in the debacle when as the Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee his hands are infused to complicity as teas is to hot water.  It was his name who appeared in the top 6 names one the take from Freddie/Mac, along with Chris Dodd and Barack Obama regarding campaign contributions, so of course he is not gonna come out and slam them for the appearance of any financial impropriety. Not to say there may not have been any republicans in the mix [I believe one from the he mid-west], but the majority of this backhanded display from liberals in play have yet to be fully vetted yet.
 
The question is what were the major contributing factors in what compounded then accelerated this mess into the national meltdown it is now? Simple, the following are just a sampling of the major contributing factors that lead up to this crisis:
 
  1. Bill Clinton not providing enough oversight during the S&L crisis: It opened the door for more abuses - it is he who gave the cow away and left milk everywhere.
  2. Allowing Realtors to liquidate REO's for banks: That was a grand ethics violation right there ala, the 1992 Insider Information Act. Banks took an awful risk getting real estate agents to sell their non performing assets at market value. Boy, that sure makes up for a lot of  lot bank fees right there. The banks don't own that property in the traditional sense of ownership - brokers had no business in  the mix.
  3. Not letting the public gain access to the REO inventories en masse: This was trickle down in the worse way. Only those who had the knowledge of the properties got access but was marketed as exclusive, and are back for more. Not so, the taxpayer had a right to access.
  4. Misguided credit guidelines  for home loans:  What we have is antiquated and doesn't reflect changes in the market today.
  5. Not capping the income and benefits:  The CEO's of public companies have different responsibilities once public, and self benefit isn't one.
  6. Outside Investment Of Foreign Banks:  Enter the dragon, socialists see money differently than capitalists - and when allowed to invest in our infrastructure, we undermine it. When we allowed the speculators back in, all of a sudden the "global" concern over US market direction was paramount to liberal law makers; thus the continued deaf ear to drilling in our own back yard by the same. it was only a matter of time before this reached a critical mass.

 

     Yes, this situation is paramount in being resolved, but do we rush a solution? I say it was planned that way. Simply put, the bigger the lie, th emore complicated the solution... in comes the money grab.  And that is exactly the plan they have on the table now, a 3/4 of a trillion dollar mortgage industry smash and grab at tax payer expense. Not to sound like some coffeehouse soothsayer, but this default has all the markings of an engineered collapse. Why else would it have happed precisely during a national election where the left has lined all its ducks up in a row? Why else would it have occurred when Putin has played his worst game of chess yet with the US? Georgia invasion - he waited until he thought we wouldn't do anything. Why else would would every major bank in the country not be able to lend until they get their way? It it a perfect storm of jack the system, and force government to pick up the tab - then bail scheme. But what needs to stop happening right now is blaming individuals with bad credit for the problem, they are not and we need to get used to the fact the 51% of the buying public has a FICO score of 620 or less [according to national surveys].  So we have a supply and demand problem right now... the supply of people with good credit is in minority, but their incomes are suspect, and so are the values of their property. So if there is a credit crunch and lending gets impaired like it already is, solvency levels are low because there is no lending because the reserve won't makes loans to banks with below level performance on their books... The obvious question here is why should the Fed step in and buy up what the public has more money to do in the first place? My solution to the credit/housing crisis is one that could have the most lasting effects and bring us to a level of self reliance built on personal accountability with very little government interventionism, but still have in place a strong system of rules that let banks know what and who they can lend to and under what circumstances. Shall we investigate? Let's shall...
     
    My Plan Is Based On The Following Premise That:
     
      1. Our credit system is to blame more so than anything first, it needs a major overhaul, it doesn't reflect the complexities we live in. 
      2. Houses can't sprout legs like unsecured credit can, why is there an over emphasis on how good your credit is for home ownership, that is just bassackwards? income is the leverage not credit.
      3. The government needs a personal credit fitness plan just like the USDA does for our daily diet, all based on some real basics.
      4. Stopping the banks from throwing out these high interest low credit limit cards to any and everyone with good to horrible credit, this is the highest risk I know. Does it make sense that this is easier to get than a home you loose just as quick if you default on it? Probably not, there are no REO credit cards after default, this practice needs to stop, there is more of a risk than a home.
      5. Make your credit worthiness based mainly on your earnings: If you want more credit get more income, it's that simple.. this will clean up the welfare rolls quicker than I can tell you.
      6. Make it against the law for a creditor to disquialify you soley on score, they must consider total income net all debts in earnest and base your debt-to-income ratio on that. A system with realistic checks and balaces are far more systemicially empowering than a blanket pay out.

    If we do these simple things to start, we will ignite an almost immediate engine of the greatest economic upheaval we have seen since Reagan.  In American our economy starts with the home. If it is slow there... everything else follows. If it is good here... wow! We cannot be matched anywhere in the world. Go figure on this, what voice in our political strata would have the most to gain from America's banking failure, connect those dots and look at their failure to improve our currency by allowing us to depend heavily on imported fuel by sources that would really rather not sell us anything. The apple doesn't fall that far from the tree on this one. We need true top to bottom reform of our credit system.  Owning a home may be a privilege and not a right, but every American has a right to participate. This fuels would certainly in my opinion participation, what do you think?

      Bail Out Rant: Paulson, Dems & Republicans Get It Wrong

      Photobucket
       
      Hank Paulson, a long time Wall Street Insider himself could only offer a solution that benefits people in his position. As a former stock broker myself... I can tell you never have the wolves tell you when it's dinner time, especially when you're the main course. Our impudent law makers have opted for looking a solution that is socialist at best, a massive transfer of wealth. Didn't we learn anything thing from the S&L crisis? They did... how to get fat and stick the Fed with the tab... both liberals and conservatives are to blame.
       
      Yet I cannot blame the mortgage companies entirely here... they make loans to who they can, I have said this before in other posts. Our credit system is the problem. Our inventories are strained... 51% of the working populous have a FICO score of under 620.  In a capitalist environment that clearly dictates demand fuels the supply. The supply of creditworthy home owners is in the minority, with the stockpile of home inventory housed by the credit weak. Real estate agents are lording over REO inventories, which most people learned a serious lesson from the first time around 15 years ago.  It begs the question - what happened to the Insider Information Act of  1992? Why should banks be issuing tons of $200 to $1000 credit cards to hundreds of thousands with D credit, when they can walk away and stick everyone. Did I miss something here? Credit cards you can walk away from. A house has no legs, great credit or not... you fall behind and you're out just like someone with bad credit.  We need a credit system, overhaul when the emphasis is on your income above all. When your income becomes the stimulus and overall motivation to live better, it takes the wind out of the sails of  the social justice engineers who blame everything but do nothing
       
      The Fed should have posted the REO's on a web site where people can bid in a lottery style systems where if you purchase a home, you are disqualified from another purchase for three months. You don't need to qualify those homes... you just need to afford them, please tell me how almost instantly our economy would turn around if we put people in homes? The whole thing with the REO inventory is the bank cannot get more money to lend unjtil they right that loan. Now does it make sense that the government step in when there are people who needs homes who could right what the government claims they need to pay out to correct, absolutely not. If they did this one thing, they would oversee the largest expansion and growth of ecomony that could potentially dwarf Reagan era productivity. It is time for a changing of the mental guard in D.C. and no... liberals aren't the solution. But niether are republicans... a social conservative will do just nicely.
       
      Carpe Diem folks... you can't seize the day when you're not living in it.

      Conservative Rant: Obama's Image Palin In Comparison

      McCain/Palin
      Originally posted on: telegraph.co.uk/that darn republican
       

      Why are late night television hosts attempting to join in along with the tag-a-along subterfuge antics of the virtually audience-less liberal mainstream media nutworks? Why is the U.N. [big surprise here] running interference for the Obama campaign? Why is the arrogance of Barack Obama himself so enveloping it has obscured his ability to see the damage he has actually done to his own campaign efforts? Why is it every Helen Gurley-Brown, bob wearing, bra burning neophyte feminist foaming at the mouth right now? Why is every carob chip eating, owl worshiping, human hating enviro-nut bucket in America having a grand mal seizure in the back of some Starbucks? Why is every militant black liberation theology student on campuses across this country combing every beauty salon in urban landscapes in big cities everywhere looking for an afro pick, with a fist style handle in anticipation of a "get real" moment? It is simple... 5 words, John McCain and Sarah Palin.  

      With his announcement that the Alaskan Governor would accept his offer as the Vice Presidential candidate of choice over such hotly debated choices as Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, former Massechussets Governor Mitt Romney and former Tennessee Senator Fred Thompson. The democrats on the far left side of the isle have been acting like deer caught in the headlights of the polar bear express... headed for Washington D.C. This writer has rarely had to step back and take a breath at what can clearly be revealed as some of the most wantonly polarizing stage antics in political history. These progressive voices within their ranks have been behaving truly like the big babies they are.  First out the gate with their anti-Palin gloves on swinging were the feminists, yup! those social vegetarians have scored big points for even bigger lip dragging when it came to attacks on Palin's motherhood, spiritual choices and pro-choice stance.  In 1 hour and 37 minutes, Sarah Palin and John McCain laid waste to leftist bellwethers and spineless, appeasist demagoguery. Sarah simply was charming and delightful, I was taken aback by the choice initially, but quickly thought about the history making dynamics at at play, and then stood back spiritually and saw the shape of man and woman in the White house and saw the theme very quickly taking shape, family... everything the left hates - for all it's worth. 

      McCain showed Barack Obama in the stunning fashion why he belongs back in the hack little leagues, with the rest of the crooked Chicago Daly machine minions. Palin effectively neutered the feminist movement and reduced them to mere irrelevence in one fell swoop, all the media saturation, all of the fashion periodical fascism they could muster was efficiently nipped and tucked by Sarah's approachable personality. Not some androgenous, stolid, stoic, anti-life, anti-male ground troops set loose like the bat experiments of WWII on unsuspecting villages in Japan... to burn them down. How beautiful to know by the time you exited the stage from the Republican National Convention that half the entrenched nut buckets on the other side of the political isle had switched sides by the time the first lattes hit the ground in defiance of police officers sent to keep the peace. A master stroke... truly. The first polls released one week after the convention show either a) a statistical dead heat or b) McCain ahead by at least 10 points. The unhinged and hateful rhetoric from deeply disturbed mainstream media voices such as the newly destroyed MSNBC, who by all means have killed their credibility for all time with some of the most shameful comments and blatant partiality of any news organization on the aire - besides MTV, but hey... we expect them to be stupid, right? But we all knew the MSM were all Tokyo Rose's in disguise anyway so no big surprise there, Kieth Olberman wasn't any good at sports and is even worse a hack at politics. Have some shame will you? It might as well be Michigan vs. Ohio St. when it comes to reporting in their being so forthcoming about their petty allegiances. Time for McCain to bring this one home... because Obama blew his chance.

      DNC LIVE: OBAMA SPEECH ALL FROSTING AND NO CAKE

      In a grand gathering of the leading ideologues of the day, their forum draped in ancient Greco/Romanesque frosting... signifiying their historical allegiances and hearkening to a fantasy age where ideals ruled the world, and silly people with principles were crucified, or hunted down for sport, because hey! They could... Barack Obama assumed the stage with his Photoshop halo in full effect, but his speech was as hollow and shallow as one would expect from a Soros puppet. Knowing he has some serious points to score through his trusty TelePrompter. He was showered like ancient Roman gladiator proposing to do battle... though the only struggles he's known is what lot to build his $1.6 home is suburban Chicago[thank to Tony Rezko]. But more to the reality at hand like many of those ancient warriors who knew their end was at hand... much the same with Obama "... Let those who are about to die [opps] lie, salute you" - Let's start by being direct.
       
      The bloviating orator wowed the crowd with exactly what they expected, and then they seemed to just get bored, like a video gamer on a pure guarana rush after a HALO tournament, they excitement just seemed to fizzle. Almost like they knew what he was going to say, his over arching theme fell on fallow ground as he hadn't uttered a word of truth period.  What he fails to understand is this is America, we call the cake by the cake... liberal call the cake by the frosting, and all goes to saying how do you know it's cake you've frosted up? Typically could be something other than cake. He offered nothing of substance, the attacks... the man is nine pounds of frosting on a two ounce brownie. You've got frosting on top of frosting... thinking its cake, but alas at the end you have something that never needed frosting at all. Useless... The camera panned across the crowd looking to the most illuminated faces to photo op as he embarks on his Bush Bash, cut McCain off at the pass interventionism. This is a blatant attempt on his behalf to shift heat that could bring him to his knees politically of what has come to be known of his connections with radical leftist terror sponsor Bill Ayers plays out. Documents uncovered publicly by one very savvy reporter could have Obama in more of a downward trend than he is already experiencing. 
       
      His sordid dealings with slum-lord extraodinaire Tony Rezko is one thing, but his ties to Anti-American citizens will never be tolerated in this country by the likes of Ayers and minds like his. These homegrown coffeehouse communists are over playing their hand and their welcome. When the word gets out that Obama guided Ayers to the $50 million in Annenberg Grant funds for government programs to completely be misguided by Obama into hands like Rezco for housing grants to the tune of $100 Million dollars in the end; he will have tremendous explaining to do. But the Obamasheen will have long worn off... with the exception of those addicted to frosting.
       
      He flat out lost me with his embarrassingly misplaced comparisons to Roosevelt and Kennedy. This is the danger of the left... they co-opt in the most opportunistic manner things that are simply false. He belongs to the voice that chased the "Kennedy" Democrats out of the party. Obama came prepared to frost the crowd up, with his austere Orwellian projections that seemed manna from the Moveon.org minds looking for victory this November. His coded language was easy to disearn if you have a half ounce of left-brain acuity though. This was triple witching hour for the domestic, latte sipping, eastern-block mindset of the day; and he did so with grand effect. But in the end... it was all rhetoric and no substance. His rhetorical incantations echoed of old socialist dogma, and was never at a loss for. The speech was masterfully crafted I will give him that, Everybody thinks they're slick next to a can of oil though... as they say; but masterfully crafted to mis-advise, confuse, obfuscate and defray - he left his own people scrathing their heads and Charles Krauthammer and Carl Rove reporting for Fox News were quick to pick that up, in all that frosting, even nutters get tired of tufo every once in a while... where was the cake?
       
       He started out with a film that went off well, but in the end was nothing more that propaganda, yeah... like he's normal.  In his 160 some odd days in office as a junior senator, he has the nerve to critique 26 years of not having the habit of openly subverting the laws of the land for idealogical bents.  He went on the attack of John McCain right away, which will not do well for him as he was preaching to his crowd. The whole essence of his speech was Bush bad puddy-tat, and McCain too... bad by association, vote for me because I will give you something for nothing. If you own business and are productive and make a decent living for yourself... and it happens to make you a millionaire - you are the enemy in his mind as true socialists hate the middle class; have no illusions here, lowering the threshhold of who he feels [which is subjective] is rich down to $250,000.00 a year only had one benefit... a wider tax base to tax, you can see here who has lowered expectations. Because if you are gonna tax and spend... it certainly makes sense to dredge with the widest nets you can dredge with, which is just pathetic pandering to socialist sympathies of you want the here and now of it all.
       
      It was the spurious lip dribble of the typical divide and conquer social rhetoric of his collegues-in-arms that we heard by-in-large. He stated no policy, all he did was bark. All I can say is he better have have a great Socialist Jedi Mind Trick up his sleeve when this Bill Ayers business gets out more, it could very well be his own undoing. I just thought is particularly shameful for him to claim something he clearly isn't - a Kennedy Democrat, that title clearly belongs to Joe Lieberman and souls like his who at least stand for soemthing. Many found his speech was nothing more than blasé progressive leftist rhetoric, and awfully, awfully, boring.

      Evolution: Where The Wild Things Are[n’t]… Anymore!


      Global Swarming?

      It would seem our colleagues on the far left are retreating from their entrenched positions defending evolution [in its varying forms… to them] on the front-lines in the marketplace of free ideas [note: I rather conspicuously omitted ideals] are being mini-gunned down with such simple tools as intellectual honesty, with overwhelming empirical evidence being supplied by the more winsome proprietors of creation science, that and even secular scientists who are at least ethically honest, it would seem the evidence of the guarded treasure troth of Darwinian Naturalism is not stacking up in their financial favor anymore and are abandoning ship for the more lucrative waters of the global warming issue fueled b y none other than Don Al Gorelioni, remember him? He invented the internet; right?

      Now it appears these collegiate socialists are running to reinforced positions of gross taxpayer misappropriation in the name of edumacation where the money [oops, did I say that?] research is being propagated by intelligentsia embedded within the ranks of our educational disinformation system as their traditional main line indoctrination dogma has been severely, and permanently impeded by reason. So, realizing that Starbucks actually costs money, and that George Sorus did actually have to make his money selling a tangible to amass his wealth certainly won’t step in for the world’s first global beta-test of universal unemployment insurance [or UEI…] people aren’t going to just simply continue to ante up – well, these latte sipping coffeehouse philosophers have hatched a new egg in the free range of excuses why the taxpayer should still pay them for nothing, with a side order of basically ruining their lives unfounded hysteria in the name of their continued pursuit of replacement theory; replacing our values based republican government model we have here in favor of European style socialism. Simply put, they will destroy this nation in order to have to not actually have to work a day in their lives, and not have to feel convicted about how they want to live it… a pretty sad state of affairs actually.

      Where is this all taking us? Right back to the political agenda of these so-called progressives, they have adopted a very slick tactic of pulling along-side of what is known to be a common truth on a given matter; such as climate change… why? Because the [basic] truth is the climate will always change… do you see where I am going with this? And then interject what I would call shadowing the truth of a matter as to somehow lend credibility to its rather misguided agenda underneath the commonly understood issue: example, the language we are used to is Global Warming as a topic or field of study, now these enviral-mentalist maniacs are using their Idiot Jedi Mind trick skills to attempt to cover their leftist footprints as they alter the language of their new game in town – Climate Change. Global warming as a whole is as laughable as Darwinian evolution, and money really isn’t being spent anymore as the economy gets tighter and greater scrutiny of school spending gets looked at. There are simply way too many holes in their old stand-by, that and the models they apply don’t stand up to even 5 grade scrutiny. But, [you can hear Vader breathing… as the Emperor suggests, “yes… yes… but if the word could be turned, it would be a powerful ally] – yup, sure could, as long as people are dumbed down, or don’t use the left –side of their brain, you could get away with murder. So the basic questions is – How are they getting away with it? A quick and simple answer is they are not being challenged and the MSM supports the proliferation of the new “understanding” of what word is currently being abused, like the word “choice”, yeah… sure, choice to do what?

      The truth of the matter is, the climate [as we can all feel and see] has been getting measurably cooler and has made a laughing stock out of long time environmental alarmists such as Gore, but even researchers such as John Kristy with the University of Alabama, Huntsville. Back in the early 90’s we saw a marked ramp up in the alarmist rhetoric from the progressive nutter crowd. But that is struggling against the reality of studies upon studies showing the opposite findings, including a the latest study released just this past Friday showed we are [again] cooler now then we have been in the past 150 [or so] years. The number predicted for violent upsurges in hurricane activity never came to fruition as those who tried to take advantage of the post-Katrina madness sought to leverage the situation to their advantage waxed sorely pale when the fall-out rubber started hitting the road as they say. With exposed scams such as the carbon footprint payoff by Al Gore [who by the way still insists this is legit], and the models used to predict their claims, these ultra liberals need a tool to try to wave a calming effect of agreement of everyone. This verbal “shadowing” goes a long way to reintroduce PC negative reinforcement to an issue they adapt as their new pet strategy for indoctrination.
