Old McBama had a farm..
Hee ai hee ai oh...
And on his farm he had a Czar...
Hee ai hee ai oh.
With a Drug Czar here, and a Drug Czar there...
Hee ai hee ai oh.
Etc., etc. etc.
The Messiah anointed One, Most High now has about 35 "Czars" with no end in sight.
How convenient to have powerful appointed policy-makers (cronies and thugs) who aren't accountable to anyone and don't have to be approved by the Senate and don't have any Congressional oversight.
The Czars tell banks, auto makers, and insurance companies what to do and when to do it. Soon, they will be telling doctors and all businesses what to do, when to do it and to whom.
I want just one more "Czar".....
I want a Presidential Eligibility Czar to check up on Obama's original birth certificate.

"Don't Call Me "Ma'am"
On June 17, Senator Barbara Boxer presumed to take to task Gen. Michael Walsh, a general officer of the US Army, during an Environmental and Public Works Committee hearing on Capital Hill.Boxer, who is running for re-election in 2010, haughtily chided Gen. Walsh for referring to her as "ma'am" instead of "senator" and the whole embarrassing incident was shown on C-Span.We now have the inside scoop on exactly what the General was thinking while he politely sat through Boxer's little rant:"Senator Boxer, as a long-time member of the US Military whose only objective in life has been to protect and defend the United States, I take exception to you and your immature and uninformed reaction to the title, "Ma'am." As anyone who has served in the military knows, the title, "Ma'am" along with the title, "Sir" are used to address ladies and gentlemen and are a sign of respect and honor. In fact, it may be said that Sir and Ma'am are more respectful than the title "senator" as not all senators are deserving of respect and honor.You say you worked hard for your title but, really, how hard is it for a wealthy liberal to be elected to the US Senate from the State of California? If you were a conservative of little wealth, then that would be a far more significant achievement.Your pomposity and arrogance are not worthy of further comment except to say thatI will be happy to address you as Senator from now on as Ma'am truly does seem inappropriate in your case. I look forward to the day when I can call you "Former Senator Boxer."

Animal Farm
In every "progressive" movement, whether environmentalism, socialism, atheism, or any other "ism"; there are two groups: the True Believers, and the Totalitarians.
The True Believers are the foot soldiers. These folks actually believe that CO2 is a pollutant, that God does not exist, or that they can raise their standard of living by making rich men poor.
The totalitarians are the "limousine liberals." These are the ones that Orwell so aptly described in Animal Farm: "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others." They do not truly care about the poor, or religion, or any other cause, but rather they just welcome any excuse to exercise control over others.
The most dangerous people in the world are Liberals who are BOTH.

The 1st Amendment
The Founding Fathers rightly sought to avoid the European practice of establishing an official, State religion, thus we have the 1st Amendment. The second part of the 1st Amendment is often (intentionally?) omitted by liberals and other secularists and states, "...or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..."
It is the second phrase of the 1st Amendment that is key to the objections of conservatives and all persons of faith to the increasingly common practice of removing all reference, symbols, and discourse relating to religion from the public square. The Founding Fathers never intended that. This is a rather recent phenomenon and is gaining momentum. Thus we have "Winter Holiday" instead of Christmas, "Happy Holidays" instead of Merry Christmas, "Spring Break" instead of Easter Vacation, the prohibition of the displays of Christmas trees and Christmas pageants in schools, attempts to remove "In God We Trust" from our coins, the Gideon's can no longer distribute Bibles in schools, efforts to delete "under God" from the Pledge of Allegiance, etc., etc. The United States survived and prospered long before the ACLU and other liberals 'discovered' the illegality of such public displays of faith. Yet, while it is forbidden to pray in the public schools, it is OK to murder unborn human beings. It's all part of the larger culture war... and we are slowly losing. Our nation was founded on Judeo-Christian principles and values and we are all (secularists included) the better for it.
Georgetown University should be ashamed for caving into the request to cover the religious symbols. Georgetown is a private, Catholic university and the government has no right to request that they deny who they are. Obama is coming to Notre Dame in a few weeks and already there is a huge debate over the appropriateness of that. What would Notre Dame do if Obama ask that a large drape cover "Touchdown Jesus"?

Q.E.D.
Hillary Clinton, the person who easily might have been our Commander-in-Chief, said recently that the piracy problem requires 21th Century solutions. WRONG!
The piracy problem requires 18th century solutions. Thomas Jefferson, who hated war and preferred diplomacy had the right idea. Jefferson sent his navy and destroyed them.
Liberals like to say that piracy is a criminal offence and is more a law enforcement issue than a terrorist matter. This is the sort of fuzzy logic that always results in a bad outcome.
Here is my simple and cheap solution to 21th Century piracy:
1. Equip all merchant ships who travel in dangerous waters with 4 to 6 heavy machine guns. Train the crew on their use.
2. Issue a world-wide edict that henceforth, any unidentified watercraft that comes with 200 yards of a merchant ship will receive warning shots and if they don’t turn around immediately, they will be blasted out of the water. No apology, no negotiations, no seeking approval from the United Nations. Those who engage in piracy on the high seas have forfeited any "rights" and are to be considered rogue humanoids and enemies of humanity.
3. Identify and destroy all bases giving safe harbor to pirates. We pretty much know where they are.
The "piracy problem" will end in short order.
All the talk about maritime treaties or laws forbidding the use of weapons on merchant ships for self-defense is hogwash. Any civilian casualties will be considered unfortunate victims of terrorism. We cannot negotiate with terrorists. If the suggested measures are taken, there will be very few, if any, further civilian casualties to worry about.

Just 53% Say Capitalism Better Than Socialism
According to the latest Rasmussen poll, only 53% of American adults believe capitalism is better than socialism. Adults over 40 strongly favor capitalism, and just 13% of those older Americans believe socialism is better.
This is what we may expect when our nation's youth are not instructed in basic US history, civics, and economics. But perhaps it doesn't make any difference considering the liberal worldview of the teachers. If you want your kids to learn anything, better home school, enroll them in private schools, or at least fill in the gaps in their education at home. Don't expect them to learn the basics in public schools or in most colleges. When the older citizens are gone, we will be another France. Oh my!

Schumer: States Must Help the Poor to Vote
Tuesday, April 7, 2009
WASHINGTON —A Senate chairman on Tuesday urged Attorney General Eric Holder to sue any states that aren't helping needy citizens to register to vote.Federal laws call for state agencies to try to register people to vote when they are distributing aid, such as food stamps and unemployment benefits.Senator Schumer stated that it was his party's goal to register as many government-dependent voters as possible in an ongoing effort to expand and maintain a permanent majority in Congress.
Furthermore, Schumer said he was prepared to introduce new legislation that would require these new eligible voters to actually vote in addition to registering. "We are prepared to reduce government benefits to those on welfare who do not show up at the polls. We are serious about bringing everyone into the electorial process. We are in the process of cross-matching all welfare recipients with voter sign-in records. Those on welfare who don't bother to vote will see their benefits reduced along with those who dare register as Republicans."

Honorary Degree
Honorary Degree
Goshen, Indiana
AP
Officials at Goshen College have confirmed reports today that President Barack Obama will travel to this economically-stressed community in northern Indiana immediately after his address at the University of Notre Dame next month. He will receive an honorary Doctor of Pacifism degree in appreciation of his recent speech where he promised to "rid the world of all nuclear weapons" by the end of his first term. When asked by reporters if he was concerned that the United States would be vulnerable to attack or blackmail by other nuclear-powered nations should the US have no nuclear deterrent, he said he would be happy to answer that question next week when his teleprompter would be updated with appropriate answers.
President Obama did mention that due to the growing criticism of his appearance at Notre Dame because of the Catholic Church's opposition to abortion, he was looking forward to traveling down the road to Goshen for another degree that would be in a more accepting environment. Unilateral disarmament is universally approved at Goshen College.
In addition, his combining trips would make the environmentalists happy as this would reduce his carbon footprint. Negotiations are underway between Goshen College and the Secret Service regarding the prohibition of guns on the pacifist campus. A compromise is likely where the President's personal bodyguard will be allowed to carry starter pistols that can only fire blanks while on campus. But they will not be allowed to point them at anyone least they become frightened but will be allowed to shoot the blanks into the air in hopes the noise would frighten off any potential threat.

Fair ?
Two natives live on a small island in the South Pacific. One has ten coconuts and the other only has two.Is that fair? Wouldn't it be more fair to take four coconuts from the one with ten and give them to the one with two? But there are many coconut trees on the island and plenty of coconuts for anyone willing to climb a tree.
Now what's fair? America is still a land of incredible opportunity. There is plenty of opportunity here for anybody to make a good life for themselves -- even despite physical disabilities, past discrimination, gender, age, or sexual preferences. There are too many examples of people with "handicaps" such as these who have made it here in this country. If you want more coconuts, go climb a tree.

What a Deal
Some guy I don't even know buys a car. He gets laid off and his car breaks. The auto manufacturer pays his car payments. The government pays to fix his car.
Or does it work this way?
The auto manufacturer is broke. The auto manufacturer has no money to pay for anything. The auto manufacturer gets the money to make this guy's car payments from a government bail-out (from the tax payer - that is me). The government guarantees the warranty so is paying to fix this guy's car with tax payer money - that is me. I am buying this guy's car and keeping it running for him.
Why not. I owe him a home, why not a car?

Econ 101
An economics professor at Texas Tech said he had never failed a single student before but had, once, failed an entire class. That class had insisted that socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer. The professor then said ok, we will have an experiment in this class on socialism.
All grades would be averaged and everyone would receive the same grade so no one would fail and no one would receive an A. After the first test the grades were averaged and everyone got a B. The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy.
But, as the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too; so they studied little.. The second test average was a D! No one was happy. When the 3rd test rolled around the average was an F.
The scores never increased as bickering, blame, name calling all resulted in hard feelings and no one would study for the benefit of anyone else. All failed, to their great surprise, and the professor told them that socialism would also ultimately fail because when the reward is great, the effort to succeed is great; but when government takes all the reward away; no one will try or want to succeed.
Could not be any simpler than that....

New Color Codes
Recently, our new US Homeland Security Chief, Janet Napolitano, issued her intentions to alter or even eliminate the color-coded threat alert system put in place after the terror (whoops, man-made destruction) attacks of 9/11, according to the New York Daily News.
According to our sources, the new colors being considered are as follows:
Peach - everything is peachy keen meaning all plans to attack are still in the planning stage.... nothing to worry about.
Mauve - All plans for new man-made disasters are about to take place probably within days or weeks at the most. All US citizens should prepare for attacks by wearing traditional Muslin garb and flying flags of any Muslin nation in front of their homes. And then hope makers of man-made disasters might shoot you in the head rather than slowly cut off your head with a dull knife.
Pink - Man-made disasters are within hours. Follow the example of our Armed Forces and surrender immediately. And be relieved that our President has that middle name. He just might survive to be our Messiah.

Crime scene
Hofstra University Students Arrested on Drugs, Weapons Charges After Dramatic Dorm Heist
Saturday , March 28, 2009
HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. — Hofstra University is reeling over the arrests of several students on drug and weapons charges after a showdown over cocaine in a school dorm room.
Police say the episode unfolded Thursday night when two 19-year-old students at the Long Island school burst into a fellow student's room carrying realistic looking pellet guns and grabbed drugs, jewelry and cash before escaping in a getaway car.
The robbery victim went to campus security, and wound up being charged himself with illegal drug sales. Police said he had been dealing pills, marijuana and cocaine out of his dorm.
An investigation led to the arrest of the students who wielded the pellet guns as well, along with a pair of alleged accomplices.
Are these intelligent college students? If so, our nation is in trouble. Perhapse they were attempting to be listed in the "World's Dumbest Crooks" competition. I can just imagine the desparate phone call to the police: "Hello... this is Harvy Kleck. I'm a student at Hofstra and live in the men's dorm. Some guys just broke into my room and stole my stash of illegal drugs and stolen jewery and all my cash from selling dope.
Please send help immediately!"

Korean missile launch
As the North Koreans get ready to test their latest ballistic missile, we should express our gratitude. This event will save the United States a bunch of money as we will not need to launch a target missile of our own in order to test our new anti-ballistic missile. Thanks, North Korea. Let us know when your glorious leader plans to take a walk in his garden and we will test our latest long-distance Predator unmaned drone.

"Henceforth, the term "enemy combatant" will be forever banned from the English language. All news media will be forbidden to use this offensive, racist, neo-con term referring to those Muslim freedom fighters struggling to push the Infidels out of Muslim lands. The fact that they may be shooting at US military forces and are out of uniform and have engaged in countless acts of suicide bombings and the killing of innocent civilians does not make these courageous and brave men any less deserving of our respect and humanity."
And to this I say, "ENEMY COMBATANT, ENEMY COMBATANT, ENEMY COMBATANT, ENEMY COMBATANT, ENEMY COMBATANT, ENEMY COMBATANT"
I now expect my 1040 tax return will be audited. I'm ready.

Dear Mr. President,
Dear President Obama,
Thank you for helping my neighbors with their mortgage payments. You know the ones down the street who in the good times refinanced their house several times and bought SUV's, ATV's, RV"s, a pool, a big plasma TV, two Wave Runnersand a Harley.
But I was wondering, since I am paying my mortgage and theirs, could you arrange for me to borrow the Harley now and then?
Poor Fox
P.S.They also need help with their credit cards, when do you want me to start making those payments?
P.P.S..I almost forgot - they didn't file their income tax return this year. Should I go ahead and file for them or will you be appointing them to cabinet posts?

Taxes
Your income taxes are normally due on April 15th. However, due to a recent change and for the next 4 years, they will not be due until you are nominated to a cabinet position. Please check with your CPA or Tax adviser to confirm.

Education for all

Obama Proposes Cradle to Career Education for AllTuesday, March 10, 2009 7:18 AM
WASHINGTON -- President Barack Obama is promising a "cradle-to-career" education for all Americans as well as stronger teacher standards and a reduced dropout rate.
Obama plans to call on people not just to educate their children but also to educate themselves when he speaks Tuesday at the U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce in Washington. It is Obama's first major speech on education since taking office.
White House aides characterize the president's speech as a first step for an agenda to change American schools.
Aides say the president will call on people to make education a priority and give the country the highest proportion of college graduates in the world by the year 2020.
Translation of original story:
Obama proposes "Cradle to Career" education for all North Americans (including Mexico and Central America) as well as more teacher indoctrination and weeding out of any remaining conservative-leaning teachers and professors. Dropouts will be eliminated by giving diplomas to all regardless of academic achievement or attendance. "No longer will anyone be denied a college degree just because he/she failed to learn anything useful or go to class," said a White House aid on the condition of anonymity. A new federal printing facility will start construction in May, 2009 at an estimated cost of $74,000,000,000 as soon as construction union demands for 2X regular pay for Monday, Wednesday, and Friday wages are finalized. The new printing faciltiy will operate 24/7 to print all the new federal High School and College diplomas that will be needed by 2012.
By assuring a college diploma for all, it is hoped that the minimum wage can be raised to $47 per hour for all McDonald and Wal Mart employees.

Former President Elect
Are you getting tired of our new "President" yet? (rhetorical question)
Since it grates on my nerves to refer to him as our "President" , from here on I will be calling him our "Former President-Elect." Remember when he was so proud of that title that he even had a special podium made inscribed with "Office of the President Elect" for his speeches prior to his taking office. So, Obama can continue with that title.
Also, since his birth certificate has still not been verified and since there is no good reason why - if he has nothing to hide- he doesn't deserve the title of President in my opinion. Well, I can dream, can't I?

Homeless and clueless
Houston taxpayers could start footing the bill to help first-time homebuyers pay off debts and improve their credit scores, under a proposal before City Council this week.
The “Credit Score Enhancement Program” will give up to $3,000 in grants to individuals who are trying to qualify for mortgages through the city’s homebuyers assistance program. City officials say some applicants fall short of eligibility by only 10 or 20 points on their credit scores, and paying off some debt balances can quickly improve their numbers.
Let's see if I understand this correctly:
The "Credit Score Enhancement Program" will help people who can't afford to own a home by taking money from other taxpayers and give the homeless government grants (gifts from the taxpayers) so that the homeless can qualify to buy a home that they can't afford. So instead of having homeless people who can't afford a home, we will have ticked off taxpayers in addition to homeless people who got to live in a home they could not afford for a few months before the banks who made them loans they could not afford had to foreclose and repossess the homes from the now homeless who could not afford to own a home. This is liberal logic at its best!
Tell me, how is this any different than the subprime mortgages that got us into the mess in the first place??

Fair is fair
From NewsMax:
After 200 years, DC residents may get vote in Congress.
Residents of the District of Columbia have complained about
second-class status, and for nearly a decade many have displayed "taxation without representation" license plates on their cars to signal their outrage.
All that could change with key votes this week in the Senate.
Debate opened Monday on a bill to give the 600,000 people of Washington D.C. a full vote in the House. A new Democratic president, Barack Obama, and heftier Democratic majorities in Congress have improved the prospects for the decades-long effort that would certainly ensure another Democrat lawmaker in Congress.
Democrats outnumber Republicans by some 4-to-1 in the capital.
OK, I agree, no taxation without representation. And no representation without taxation. To all D.C residents who actually PAY taxes and don't get welfare, go ahead and vote. Tax-paying Republicans outnumber tax-paying Democrats by 4-to- 1. At least.
Least I be accused of racism, I want this policy to be nation-wide for all races, in all states. Fair is fair.

Have the Obama KoolAid drinkers grown tired of OGrape and OStawberry?
Just out:
Our Messiah in the White House has suffered a decline in popularity in just the past 3 weeks.
The former President Elect has seen his job approval go down from 65% to 60% but his disapproval has increased from 16% to 26%.
At this rate, he will be as popular as the former Governor of Illinois, (whose name I never bothered to learn how to spell) in about 6 months.
But it must be acknowledged that among the Democrat Party faithful, his approval rate actually went UP from 85% to 90%.
I wonder who are the 10% who don't like him? Probably those who think he is not liberal enough.
They include the supporters of Dennis Kucinich and the San Francisco pot lobby.
Also possibly included are the Greens who are upset with the Big O for flying out to Denver in Air Force 1 just for a 20 minute photo op when he signed the "Democratic Party Monopoly Power Stimulus Bill." That one trip put more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than Al Gore's Tennesee mansion did for the entire month of January. Shame on you, Barry!
Don't worry about your great-grandchildren paying for this new debt. After all, you will probaly be dead then anyway.
