A 45 year old Chicagoan's observations and commentary on top news, pop culture and an accounting of the Obama Regime and their 'statist' power grab from my unabashed, right leaning/conservative point of view..

Here's one of my first posts and observations on a then potential Obama presidency in Feb 07/ I'm no prophet believe you me..... it was all common sense far too many today simply 'lack',
George Mason explained, “(T)o disarm the people (is) the best and most effectual way to enslave them.” Noah Webster elaborated: “Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed
These people have incredible video of illegals, Armed terrorists, you name it invading the country each second of every day..
Michelle Bachmann has more morality and fortitude than the entire male congress on both aisles put together, as not only has she been consistently against the Obama Big Gov Machine, she also put together a Tea Party Caucus in DC this past week, which many rip, but I happen to think is a good idea, as it gives the Tea Party direct access to the 'machine' until we dismantle it in November.
And her plan on how to accomplish it all sounds just like ours and is Music to My Ears and yours as well..I'm sure.
That would be to "REMOVE-REPEAL-RESTORE and PROSECUTE ALL OBAMACARE and PORKULUS SIGNEES essentially throwing the entire proverbial kitchen sink for all their Obama led unconstitutional 'end arounds' born in this criminal congress which they and GhettObama shoved down our throats and up our backsides Barney style,ever since the second the Messiah 'walked the water' of the DC reflecting pool surrounded by fools on election and inauguration day.
This is on WorldNetDaily this morning. "The following is audio of her comments posted on YouTube by the blog Three Fingers of Politics::"
GOP attack plan: 'Starve beast' of Obamacare: "One GOP lawmaker has already formulated a 2011 plan of attack should Republicans take control of the U.S. House of Representatives: Serve subpoenas, conduct exhaustive hearings and slash funding to 'starve the beast' of the Obama administration's big-government programs.
'Oh, I think that's all we should do,' Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., told the GOP Youth Convention in Washington, D.C., today. 'I think that all we should do is issue subpoenas and have one hearing after another and expose all the nonsense that is going on.'
She added, 'And it's very important when we come back that we have constitutional conservative leadership because the American people's patience is about this big, so we have to make sure that we do what the people want us to do.'
Hear Bachmann, columnist-author Ann Coulter, Alan Keyes, Tom Tancredo, former U.S. Sen. and Adm. Jeremiah Denton, best-selling authors Jerome Corsi and Aaron Klein, 'Saturday Night Live' comedian Victoria Jackson and others at the Taking America Back conference. continue reading GOP attack plan:
HE, who uses Air Force One like a private jet telling the underlings they must cut their travel?
Yet here he is, hopping here for this 5 minute speech, and there for that 10 minute speech, twice to Copenhagen in the same month!
Trips many would argue were BOTH personal trips, since the federal government had nothing to do with the Olympics coming to Chicago, which is why he was there the second time, lobbying for his homies and killing some quality time flying on this special plane.
All that for about 2 piddly hours on the ground which came to 17 hours in the air round trip twice in the same 2 week stretch, all the way to Copenhagen and back at $70,000 an hour, you do the math.
Here's yet another GREAT moment in 'Obama White House travel history':
Remember his Memorial Day trip back here to Chicago where he jotted down to the Gulf and back to make a 'fly by' appearance on the beach there, while back here he was partying with Loopy Louis Farrakhan, who's 45 bodyguards got into a verbal altercation with the Secret Service over the grass at the Nation of Islam party?
All which he chose to partake in rather than spending the holiday in the appropriate setting in DC to honor our vets at Arlington, instead sending 'Sackless' Scranton Joe in his place, who I must admit actually turned in a better performance than Obama could have.. The best part of the day for me and others was when GOD rained on Obama's last second 'I care about the troops' run down the street from his house to a South Side cemetery for some more "Lincoln' imagery.
That little trip cost Americans 240,000 for the weekend.
And most of all, who could forget the Air Force One Fly by in NY that scared the shit out of most of the city all for a BS photo that I and thousands of others could have and did photoshop for hundreds of thousands of the cost as you can see above.
Not to even mention that 50 trips on that thing entail the involvement of a contingent that could run a small country, in addition to the tons and tons of armored vehicles and the literal 'stoppage of time' that occurs when this man parades through a crowded city for a lousy ice cream and a damn Big Mac is preposterous.
All because of his monstrous ego and self centeredness that's not even satisfied with all the gushing we have to suffer through as he wanders through the moronic class for affirmation more than the Real Fake Stuart Smalley character. Not the asshole who played him on SNL
So, once AGAIN WITH THE LEFT AND OBAMA THE MOTTO IS:
"DO AS WE SAY, NOT AS WE DO"
AND
"WHAT IS FOR ME IS NOT FOR THEE."
My Way News - Fed workers to be urged to commute, travel less: "WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama wants federal workers to cut down on business travel and commuting by car as he seeks to reduce heat-trapping emissions produced by the federal government.
The White House was announcing Tuesday that the government will aim to reduce carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions from indirect sources like employee driving by 13 percent in 2020, compared with 2008 levels.
Earlier this year Obama directed agencies to reduce pollution from direct sources, such as buildings and government fleets, by 28 percent in the next decade.
The federal government is the largest energy consumer in the U.S. economy, and the combined reductions would be the equivalent of removing emissions from 235 million barrels of oil, the White House said.
Employee travel and commuting account for the biggest category of what the White House calls indirect sources of pollution, so the main way to limit them will be encouraging employees to travel less for business and to use mass transit for their commutes. Other sources of indirect pollution are waste disposal and energy that is lost through inefficient electricity transmission.
The announcement allows Obama to show some forward movement on cutting greenhouse gases even as the Senate prepares to take up energy legislation without the broad, economy-wide greenhouse gas emission caps Obama hoped for.
In a statement, Obama noted that the government is the biggest energy user. 'The government has a responsibility to use that energy wisely, to reduce consumption, improve efficiency, use renewable energy, like wind and solar, and cut costs,' he said.
Speaking of which:
Oh I guess this means they'll also be demanding that San Fran Nan give up the use of the Gulfsteam and Air Force Jets that she's now taking cross country on a 'whenever the hell she feels like it' basis?
Make her go back to her piddly private Cessna or fly first class like the rest of the "we're better than you' segment of America. Don't hold your breath on that one.
10,000 baby boomers retiring each day as Obama's pissing away the money they 'have coming to them' through Social Security on 'third world losers' and ballooning welfare programs, right along with his 'un American' support to take in 15 million criminals so they can steal some more of the future from the children who belong here who aren't being killed off by the left in the womb, 50 million and counting?
I don't care if they work hard. So do we.
So did the baby boomers who's parents basically built most of America after the war saving the world from tyranny now coming Washington....almost.
Total nonfarm payroll employment grew by 431,000 in May, reflecting the hiring of 411,000 temporary employees to work on Census 2010, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today.
Private-sector employment changed little (+41,000). Manufacturing, temporary help services, and mining added jobs, while construction employment declined. The unemployment rate edged down to 9.7 percent, the rate where it stood for the first three months of the year.
The numbers mask some bad news: private-sector employment is growing, but barely, and it is nowhere near its growth rate of a month earlier. If it weren’t for census workers, job creation would have been near zero. The economy may be headed for a second dip into recession.
If Bush did this to the country and lied about it as they continue to do, they'd have impeached him.
Anyone who's ever owned or run a business would be able to see the disincentive it is to keep continuing unemployment benefits, but then again, the people int he Obama administration have never held real jobs nor owned real businesses, including the boy wonder sitting in the Captain's chair first and foremost.
People asking for deferred start dates for landscaping jobs because it's easier to sit home and collect Obama's extended unemployment than it is to pay for gas, work all day, blow money on bus fare and all the stuff working people do each day.
One former landscaper, who has been on unemployment for a year, said
he will search for work when the benefits expire, but he estimates he
earns about $50 to $60 less a week than he would if he were working.
"It's crazy," he said. "They keep doing all of these extensions."
Yea, why should I bother working.....these extensions have been incentive to be unmotivated, and it's only getting worse each day with this Obama administration and it's 'wussified' nanny state hand outs and welfare.
In a state with the nation's highest jobless rate, landscaping companies are finding some job applicants are rejecting work offers so they can continue collecting unemployment benefits.
It is unclear whether this trend is affecting other seasonal industries. But the fact that some seasonal landscaping workers choose to stay home and collect a check from the state, rather than work outside for a full week and spend money for gas, taxes and other expenses, raises questions about whether extended unemployment benefits give the jobless an incentive to avoid work.
Members of the Michigan Nursery and Landscape Association "have told me that they have a lot of people applying but that when they actually talk to them, it turns out that they're on unemployment and not looking for work," said Amy Frankmann, the group's executive director. "It is starting to make things difficult."
Heard nothing so far that should come to any surprise to anyone (again) who's ever met a payroll or actually worked in the real world, instead of being payed by the liberal government over the past decades to be "community organizers" and other "non-existent jobs" people today can become president ....not ever working a "single hard day's work".. at that.
Sorry to hurt anyone's feeling's but a " community organizer" is nothing more than an often Union paid "rabblerouser" and that's obviously all this man ever did because he can't even give a speech to 3rd graders without a teleprompter.
Warning signs of an idiot if we ever saw one.
We didn't have teleprompters in any debate classes I ever took.
HOUSTON—A man was killed and his family members beaten after three suspects barged into a north Houston home Saturday afternoon, police said.
Investigators said one of the suspects pretended to be a census worker to gain entry into the house, located in the 400 block of Truman.
Family members said the victim’s son opened the door for the suspects, believing they were with the census. continued
What scum...there's why you come near our door you'll be meeting mr 9mm if I don't know who you are nowadays... even out here in the 'burbs as Obama and his "fo ho'seman friends" (that's '4 horsemen' in Ebonics) out here (Farrakhan, Daley, Luis Gutierrez and Rhambo Emmanuel, all local Chicago slime) supposed 'community organizing' left Chicago in shambled as the country can see even effected our neighborhoods..!!
There's a big reason why many won't open their doors for anyone claiming to be from the government, I mean they figuratively rape us daily so why would one open the door for one coming to one's front door figuring they're there in person to do the very same thing..
This one the victims nor the perpetrator appear to have anything to do with the government other than "posing" as one, but who's to say some census worker couldn't pull this very same thing as, again, some have.
With all the Americans who are disabled and or just unemployed the best they could do are scrape up a bunch of lowlife rapist felons out on their weekend passes? Geesz Louise....

Today is the 28th anniversary of the launch of the very first space shuttle and yet can out there tell me why I had to go to a British Website to find news of
this other than catching Megyn Kelley talkin' about it in the
background while I listen to Rush here?
This is my Google search for this rally because I was surprised I didn't hear about it until afterwards. If I miss it, it's not there. And sure enough "it's not there" as far as our media goes as usual unless it's "racist tea party related"
But.....the Brit's are on the case.
Seriously that's it! Sure I could change the wordage and end up with a couple more, but I made the point. Click the pic to go there if you don't believe me.
What the real problem here is that we can see the CommyObammy administration has it's eyes on NASA's BIG money, so they can spend it on other BS liberal "wants", like perhaps :
Homosexual partner trauma counseling, AIDS research, condom elasticity when used anally, 101 ways to use Vegetable shortening on the human body or in it, how many "weight challenged people can fit in a Prius", how many "legal dope purchasing stoney marts" can open in California, and don't forget to throw some dough the ACLU and ACORN's way along with all kinds of other Anti American crap, and you've got yourself a fine and dandy recipe for NASA FUNDING CUTS.
The left seemingly has no respect for anything which was previously important to most Americans, and especially what the space program has done for American life and humanity as a whole and continues to do since Kennedy got us to the moon with the help of some great astronauts and great Americans at NASA.
In fact they're like the only Government run agency that I can think of which most Americans don't HATE excluding the left of course!!
Now the Apollo 13 heroes are out here "hand to mouth" begging for us to tell THEM IN CONGRESS AND the Halfrican White House to "F**K OFF" and keep the program rolling. Figuring out another way to pay for that other crap. I'm sure they'll come up with something original, like perhaps more taxes on flags and Apple Pie.
We can all see no where they're misguided priorities lie over there in "electric loony land".
Apollo 13's crew of Fred Haise, James Lovell and John Swigert with President Nixon
This time though it's not 'Houston we've got a problem' it's 'America we got a problem, and it's in Washington DC! '
Add this to the demands we have for any republicans looking for a vote this fall although I don't think they could do anything to botch up this election since they have no one in DC to really screw anything up. Obama owns this Cluster fuc* all on his own.
Times Online: "Heroes of the Apollo 13 Moon mission have called on the public to help to save America’s manned spaceflight programme as President Obama prepares to defend his plans to scrap it.
At an appearance marking the 40th anniversary of the lunar expedition that turned into one of history’s greatest rescue stories, the retired astronauts Jim Lovell and Fred Haise urged people to lobby Congress to block the President’s proposal and throw Constellation a lifeline.
Their call came as Sy Liebergot, one of the mission control experts who masterminded their recovery in 1970, told The Times: “Back then we were excited. All we had on our minds was going to the Moon. Now, in terms of human spaceflight, Nasa’s done, that’s it. The US is going to be relegated to second class. There’s no forward thinking any more.”
About $9 billion (£6 billion) has been spent on the Constellation project, which for the past five years has been developing a generation of spacecraft to send astronauts to the Moon by 2020 and Mars a decade later.
Mr Obama, concerned that it was behind schedule and over budget, wants Nasa to develop new technologies instead.
The cost should not be seen as an over-burden, said Captain Lovell, who has described the President’s space agenda as catastrophic.
“This is a creative programme. It’s a programme that tries to generate new knowledge of our own being, our Earth, our solar system ... the spin-offs are tremendous,” he said, speaking at Kennedy Space Centre in Florida.
Today is the 49th anniversary of human spaceflight — Yuri Gagarin, the Russian cosmonaut, became the first human in space on April 12, 1961 — and the 28th anniversary of the launch of the shuttle."

And like the taxes they raise but don't pay (Tim Geithner, Tom Daschle, et al) the connected liberal loons in the city are getting a free ride while the citizenry gets screwed paying these hidden "taxes and fees" while they piss away our money like a drunk after a case of Old Style.
This shouldn't come as any surprise that Chicago city employees having been getting a break on these unconstitutional red light camera's that generated 58 freakin million dollars last year for "the city that works ..........for the connected" while we citizens get the vaunted 58 million dollar shaft.
Nearly 70 percent of the red-light camera tickets issued to city vehicles over the last three years have been dismissed, records show.
These cameras are the biggest fraud to come along since global warming, and are nothing more than revenue builders for cities that can't control their liberal loon budgets, as they continue to hand out "nanny state crap" left and right which no one can afford yet they continue to try, and we all foot the bill no matter what the freaking case as they come up with schemes like this to milk more money out of us all without raising taxes.
Like we're all morons and can't see what the **** their doing here with these things. It's like crack for these municipalities when they see all this "free money" coming in by the millions, and it's a liberal loon dream to finance all their bullshit without asking the taxpayers for the money.
Many of we citizens around this country have had enough of these things frankly, as I myself got one here in my local township, but got it dismissed with a bunch of others, because they hadn't installed the sign yet at the intersection in question.
Oh, but they were happily handing out the tickets for a week or so without it which doubles or I'm betting triple's their take initially.
I think every city does that at the beginning of the program so they can collect 5 times the money for the first months, as people get used to the timing of these things.
Timing of which can be switched at a moments notice by the way, which they do from time to time I'm betting, so as to nab the "likely offenders" a second time at the same intersection using their previous ticket against them.
Some cities have been caught tampering with these to increase profit you can read here.
For that reason alone these things should be deemed illegal and shut down with all the ticket recipients having their money refunded.
Privacy lawyers are working on that although difficulty arises because of the argument that "driving is a privilege, which keeps it from being ruled "unconstitutional", because driving isn't a "right" but again a "privilege". This is the same reason you must consent to a sobriety test on demand in most states, which, by the way, cops and the connected also skirt far too often, while the rest of us get the Chicago Daley shaft.
CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: City Hall: "Chicago's Big Brother network of red-light cameras has turned into a money machine for the city, generating $58 million in annual revenue in 2009.
The same cannot be said for city employees caught by the cameras in the act of running red lights. Nearly 70 percent of their tickets get dismissed.
Nearly 70 percent of the red-light camera tickets issued to city vehicles over the last three years have been dismissed, records show.
Since January 2007, 2,685 red-light-camera tickets have been issued to vehicles registered to city departments. At $100 a pop, that should have generated $268,500. Instead, only $77,167 has been collected.
A whopping 1,830 of those tickets were dismissed for reasons that include the municipal code exemption for emergency vehicles. Not all of those vehicles were responding to emergencies with lights flashing and sirens blaring. Some police vehicles were working undercover. Some were vehicles assigned to city departments not typically considered emergency departments." continued
All that on the very day Obama makes his announcement the Gman is now the "Loan man" which means "We the people".
I tell ya, nothing like borrowing back money you've already GIVEN them, or should we say is "extorted" out of our paychecks each week, through government IRS threats of prosecution and imprisonment. Looks like Sallie Mae will be soon headed down the road of siblings Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae soon enough if the same people and up running it. Meaning Washington as is..
Madness and discombobulation will be the theme of the day around that place.
Oh but we're one step closer to that liberal vision of AmeriTopia which many think will look like this....
what they were all seeing visions of as they were busy dropping acid all through the 60's, which explains their wacky behavior and nutty ideas with everyone else's money as adults.
One more thing I don't hear too much spoken of in all this is the fact that the college loan deadbeats are now gonna have Obama and friends on their asses to pay, and the good old days of "blowing those loans off" as many of the Woodstock Timothy Leary "Turn On, Tune In and Drop out" acid popping generation did are over now, at least they damn well better be.
And these nuts and their dreams of Utopia die off with them in the next decade we can only pray.
Washington Times - "The government's Web site for handling student loans was broken most of Tuesday — the very day President Obama signed a law putting the government in charge of all subsidized student lending.
Visitors to the site www.studentloans.gov early Tuesday afternoon saw an error message, while users Monday saw either an error message or, in the evening, were simply unable to connect to the site at all.
The site was working again by late Tuesday, but critics said the technical problems underscore their concerns about turning such a major program over to the federal government.
'This is a case study in what happens when the federal government takes over a function of the private sector. On its first day of operation, the federal student loan program has collapsed into a black hole from which no information can escape,' said John Hart, a spokesman for Sen. Tom Coburn, Oklahoma Republican.
Multiple messages for comment were left with the Education Department on Monday and Tuesday. On Tuesday afternoon, a spokesman e-mailed that officials were 'checking' on the matter.
Mr. Obama signed the loan changes into law as part of a package of fixes to the health care law he signed just last week. The two measures had to be combined in order to pass through the complex budget process, which allowed Democrats to avoid a Republican-led filibuster in the Senate.
The health care fixes included aid for seniors who face a gap in Medicare prescription drug coverage, higher funding to states for Medicaid and a delay in taxes on high-cost insurance plans.
Democratic leaders in Congress earlier this month tacked the student loan overhaul onto the health bill Mr. Obama signed. But the Internet glitch provided an embarrassing kickoff for the changes.
The federal student loan programs' director, in notices posted on the department's Web site, acknowledged the site was down for parts of both Monday and Tuesday." more
I'm single so only had to fill one section and had to answer the simplest questions I've dealt with in a decade, from the government at least.
But for those families who have 3 generations of people living there (illegals perhaps), yes it could take a whopping half hour to complete if you can't read and write English, because there's no Spanish on this thing.Otherwise it would have been 40 pages long.
So, my conclusion is after 350 million wasted advertising this freaking thing that shouldn't require 10 grand to get it done, and assessing all the RIDICULOUS run up to this non event just to get Hispanics and all Illegals to return it is the following......
Anyone who doesn't fill this thing out and return it the very next day like I just did is either...
(A) a Child Molester living somewhere they're not supposed to be, like near a school..
(B) Drug dealers with no job other than supplying the neighborhood with coke, crack, smack and weed..
(C) Flat out fugitives from justice from some crime or another or a string thereof that the authorities have active warrants out for their arrests...
(D) Terrorists that somehow managed to get 'inside the wire" per se and don't have all their fake identifications taken care of yet so they can continue to be anonymous until 19 of them hijack some airplanes and drive them into our largest skyscrapers in the US
and finally last but certainly not least....
(E) Illegal Aliens are the ones we need to find and weed out just like the terrorists in hiding....as they will never fill it out firstly because they can't read gosh damn English, and secondly for all the other obvious reasons.
So in this American's humble opinion, every home that doesn't return it should be visited by ICE and the ATF simultaneously as they'll make a freaking historic roundup killing guaranteed.
And finally one more thing.....look at the back of this thing and tell me how fuc**** stupid one has to be to actually need these instructions? I had my 5 year old nephew insert the thing perfectly without ANY ASSISTANCE WHATSOEVER....
if you really needed these instructions, please send me an email, and I'll send you a loaded weapon with instructions on what you need to do with IT, ok?
I like the front of it which says this (check the left side and then what the illegals likely response has been)
As
if people who've been here living illegally high off the tax free hog
are gonna be scared by that crap, which they can't even read anyways!!

Perhaps they could foot their own bills while out on the road, since they're getting paid double time nine times out of ten during a snow storm, and especially "twice in a century" storms like the ones they just experienced.
DC snow crews blow $400K on McDonalds, hotels
Need to Know: "The December blizzard earned a presidential disaster declaration, and the response to February's back-to-back storms also might net federal assistance. But the snow response price tag includes some costs the District will likely never recoup.
The city, largely the D.C. Department of Transportation, shelled out $73,380 between Feb. 5 and 15 for McDonald's gift cards. Taxpayers also footed nearly $300,000 in room charges at a half dozen D.C. hotels. Courtyard by Marriott netted $115,045 from three storms, the Capitol Skyline nearly $83,000 and the Channel Inn more than $10,000..." read more
That's so swell to see when the country is practically bankrupt. I guarantee the snow plowing trucks that are out around here practically non stop all winter long aren't getting their meals and lodging payed for by the taxpayers.
No, in these parts we pay for their prostitutes, drugs and storm night bar tabs probably .... ;>)

The good old drunk driving days of the Kennedy's In Washington come to a sad close.
Slowly the dem coalition crumbles lib by lib....and with hearing yet another Kennedy is leaving government lets just say I'm damn glad to see both go, and for the first time in my life our government is now KENNEDY FREE.
This is great news on a number of fronts; but number one, it helps lower the deficit by lessening the load of nanny state programs being pushed through the government by the Kennedy clan, and furthermore, makes the roadways of DC and Rhode Island the safest that they've ever been since the rum runner's grandson hit town with a drunken fury, just like the old man did 50 years ago, leaving Mary Jo Koepechne at the bottom of a creek in his wake, as we know all too well.
The real reason though in all seriousness, is that without Pops banging elbows down the halls of congress, he doesn't have any clout and pull anymore, nor anyone to tell him what to do.
chicagotribune.com: "WASHINGTON (AP) — Rep. Patrick Kennedy's decision not to seek re-election will leave Washington without a Kennedy in political office for the first time in more than 60 years.
The Rhode Island Democrat's term ends early next year but he says in a television message viewed by The Associated Press on Thursday that his life is 'taking a new direction' and he will not seek a ninth term. The video was provided to the AP by Kennedy's congressional office.
The 42-year-old son of the late Sen. Edward Kennedy does not give a reason for the decision but says it has been a difficult few years for many people and he mentions the death in August of his father." continued

I'm starting to really love this global warming if it can keep congress from coming to work, and perhaps we should rethink the white house arrangement so the president has to drive to work each day, that way the next storm that comes rumbling through can keep Obama away for a week as well.
It's costing 100 million a day for them to stay away, however it's probably 100 times that when they show up to work, I say lets pay them all to stay home through November . What say you?

I know they wanna keep Michelle busy seeing she's a high falootin' Ivy League lawyer type, but do we need to spend 50 million dollars for her little obesity initiative to send fat Americans a message that mostly consists of 4 freaking words..... count em..FOUR......
STOP EATING SO MUCH!
All that's going in the guy, imagine what comes out of him!! He needs his own water treatment plant and zip code.....
And hopefully she's gonna be dropping a few herself since she's so concerned about the rest of us.. How much you wanna bet she gets fatter and fatter while partying away at the white house each week. Anyone? Is she gonna weigh herself in every week after Obama's radio address?
I don't think so.
This will give us all something to keep an eye on over there at 1600 and 1/2 Pennsylvania Avenue besides Barry and the Commie Boobs (the half is Michelle's Booty btw) which I'm sure is part of the plan, the old Obama razzle dazzle. Keep your eye on the birdie.
This picture right here is so "Obama -tonian" as these dems all sitting around congratulating each others for wasting our tax dollars trying to legislate GOSH DAMN COMMON SENSE isn't it?
I listened to the entire thing and it was pretty torturous, trust me.
They had an hours long press conference and the whole 29 yards for this "War On Fat Asses", which makes me wanna scream, as they do these things trying to legislate and propagandize common sense into people that most of us learned by watching freaking Ray Rayner and Romper Room....
Ya know? Like "eat the right foods gosh dammit"...What grade?? If you're out there and not a child, yet need Michelle to get you to move your ass? God help you.
Here's a hint.....Stop the Big Mac and Whopper fest and the pounds drop off all by themselves, you don't even have to exercise! And take it from me, because I just lost 60 lbs myself IN THREE MONTHS, going from 260 to 200 after spending 2 years in a wheelchair from Multiple Sclerosis complications, and all I did was stop eating like a fat, lazy American sow and that's the GOD honest truth.
You kind of have, to since you don't get much exercise in a 'chair, so cutting caloric intake is the only way it took a bit too long to figure out, like a couple pant and shirt sizes too long..
The best thing was I didn't barely have to lift a finger, although I must admit being able to walk again even a little helps burn those calories too. So I did exercise a bit, but nothing extraordinary obviously, and not surprisingly it was a pleasure to do. And if I could do it anyone can.
I love eating and sitting on my ass as much as anyone else, but there comes a time too much is too much. Like when it gets to this point perhaps?
There's the carbon footprint of a small continent right here. There's where all the Haiti relief is going...

If this doesn't piss you off nothing will, as Nancy Pelosi's Air Follies have reached proportions America shouldn't tolerate for another weekend much less another 6 year term for this prima-donna.
And after she's finally removed we should itemize her expenses and seek retribution since she and her husband can well afford to pay her accumulated bills for excesses fit for a queen which last time I checked she IS NOT AND NEVER WILL BE.
Taxpayers pay $101,000 for Pelosi's in-flight 'food, booze': "It reads like a dream order for a wild frat party: Maker's Mark whiskey, Courvoisier cognac, Johnny Walker Red scotch, Grey Goose vodka, E&J brandy, Bailey's Irish Crème, Bacardi Light rum, Jim Beam whiskey, Beefeater gin, Dewars scotch, Bombay Sapphire gin, Jack Daniels whiskey … and Corona beer.
But that single receipt makes up just part of the more than $101,000 taxpayers paid for 'in-flight services' – including food and liquor, for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's trips on Air Force jets over the last two years. That's almost $1,000 per week.
Documents obtained under the Freedom of Information Act by Judicial Watch, which investigates and prosecutes government corruption, show Pelosi incurred expenses of some $2.1 million for her use of Air Force jets for travel over that time.
'Speaker Pelosi has a history of wasting taxpayer funds with her boorish demands for military travel,' Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said today. 'And these documents suggest the Speaker's congressional delegations are more about partying than anything else.'
Pelosi, D-Calif., recently joined President Obama on a Judicial Watch list of Top 10 corrupt politicians because of her 'sense of entitlement,' the group said.
'Politicians believe laws and rules (even the U.S. Constitution) apply to the rest of us but not to them. Case in point: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her excessive and boorish demands for military travel. Judicial Watch obtained documents from the Pentagon in 2008 that suggest Pelosi has been treating the Air Force like her own personal airline,' the evaluation said." continued

We got these all over the suburbs of Illinois too, (touting work in many cases that was scheduled for repair way before the stimulus came into play, just making the money available quicker), and this happens with every government from state to state right to Washington DC with these politico's immortalizing themselves in life with our money every election cycle ...
Status symbols in the form of propaganda signage which around here can be seen tooting the horns of the Obama administration too.
Or like this 1 million just spent just in Ohio on the same crap. (see anybody working by the way in the shot on the road, except for the people driving to work elsewhere? No)
Signs of waste? $1 million used to tout stimulus funds at work in Ohio - CNN.com: "Cleveland, Ohio (CNN) -- A state senator from Ohio says his state is spending $1 million on road signs to advertise the use of stimulus money for road projects. In other words, the state is using your money to tell you it's spending your money."

Don't you think they'd use a picture of Bin Laden himself for that? I mean why the need to use the face of another man? I thought they used some fancy schmancy aging software to do this crap? Instead they just got the picture of some older man who looks like Bin Laden and photoshopped his hair and face?
That's what appears to be the case according to this man.....and he would know since it's his picture they picked, and furthermore he's a law enforcement man! What an insult!
Europe- msnbc.com: "MADRID - A Spanish lawmaker was horrified to learn that the FBI used an online photograph of him to create an image showing what Osama bin Laden might look like today.
The image using Gaspar Llamazares' photo appeared on a wanted poster updating the U.S. government's 1998 photo of the al-Qaida leader.
FBI spokesman Ken Hoffman acknowledged to the Spanish newspaper El Mundo that the agency used a picture of Llamazares taken from Google Images." continued
Damn, even I'm not that stupid, I would never do that even as a blogger, portray some random man picked from Google Images as Bin Laden or any terrorist? I don't know, that worries me terribly they would even do this, as I ranted about above.
Troubling. This guy should be getting a check from the FBI soon (meaning us) thanks to that f*** up.

Unfreakin real this government is, Million dollar parties and conferences with our money while telling American's they're supposed to be in the midst of a depression.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) spent five million dollars this month to bring 3, 600 managers to a conference in Atlanta that FAA whistleblowers and critics say was little more than an excuse to throw a three-week-long Christmas party.
"It's the wrong time to spend five million dollars on a Christmas party
for anybody's employees, especially in the government," said Tom
Schatz, the president of Citizens Against Government Waste, a
non-profit watchdog group.
Undercover video to be broadcast tonight on ABC World News with Diane Sawyer shows FAA managers drinking heavily and making the rounds of Atlanta bars after a day of meetings.

That would be the Loony Bin section of congress mind you.......
I think Americans have spoken time and again that we DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT want the government taking over our decisions on health care, and particularly a government that is obviously taking advantage of the extreme ignorance that's become so prevalent in this society in recent times being led by far left wing ideologues who could give a damn what middle America wants because they're intent on destroying it..
I cannot for the life of me understand what possess the people who cannot see what's being done to them first and then us in their names because their so called leaders know that they are so ignorant and misguided that when people bring it to their attention they still ignore facts that don't support their agenda...
THIRTY EIGHT PERCENT, last time I checked those numbers mean "hit the road with this crap walking"
"Just 38% of voters now favor the health care plan proposed by President Obama and congressional Democrats. That’s the lowest level of support measured for the plan in nearly two dozen tracking polls conducted since June.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 56% now oppose the plan.
Half the survey was conducted before the Senate voted late Saturday to begin debate on its version of the legislation. Support for the plan was slightly lower in the half of the survey conducted after the Senate vote.
Prior to this, support for the plan had never fallen below 41%. Last week, support for the plan was at 47%. Two weeks ago, the effort was supported by 45% of voters.
Intensity remains stronger among those who oppose the push to change the nation’s health care system: 21% Strongly Favor the plan while 43% are Strongly Opposed.
Rasmussen Reports is continuing to track public opinion on the health care plan on a weekly basis. Next week’s Monday morning update will give an indication of whether these numbers reflect a trend of growing opposition or are merely statistical noise."
I think it's quite obvious it's a genuine trend, not some "statistical noise"...who wrote that line, Obama? Sure sounds like it. Here's some statistical noise for them.....
SCREW Obama-Losi care.

Louisiana Purchase sets the table for all kinds of demands being tossed aro as the Senate health care concessions which I and millions of others see as outright bribes with the taxpayers money to get bills passed that 60% of Americans don't want?
Andjust because they say this is how things get done doesn't mean it's right and it should continue, that's the problem with this government of ours, they throw our money around amongst themselves like it's theirs.....
We all know Thomas Jefferson didn't even pay 1/3 to France in the Lousisiana purchase and this holdout and bribe payment should spark accusations of payoffs because that's exactly what it is ...this is not how politics should work when the country is bankrupt from coast to coast or any other time anywhere/..
And frankly I'm pretty upset that Mike Huckabee who's in this video and who I was beginning to like defend this shit.
