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.
