This Makes Me Sick

Time for a few more TEA parties.

By Dennis Cauchon, USA TODAY
Taxpayers are on the hook for an extra $55,000 a household to cover rising federal commitments made just in the past year for retirement benefits, the national debt and other government promises, a USA TODAY analysis shows.
The 12% rise in red ink in 2008 stems from an explosion of federal borrowing during the recession, plus an aging population driving up the costs of Medicare and Social Security.

That's the biggest leap in the long-term burden on taxpayers since a Medicare prescription drug benefit was added in 2003.

The latest increase raises federal obligations to a record $546,668 per household in 2008, according to the USA TODAY analysis. That's quadruple what the average U.S. household owes for all mortgages, car loans, credit cards and other debt combined.

This whole thing started with the medicare prescription drug handout and has snowballed out of control.

Esperanza! ¡Cámbiese!

"I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experience would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life."

Nice move there, you stupid, racist bitch.

Hey! I know! Let's do some role playing here. Let's see what it sounds like if this was statement was modified a bit:

"I would hope that a wise white male with the richness of his experience would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a Latina woman who hasn't lived that life."

Oh yes. The shit would definitely have hit the fucking fan.

Nevertheless, with her nominated, wetbacks will be rejoicing. Dancing in the streets.

¡VIVA LA REVOLUCION!

Once Considered Unthinkable, U.S. Sales Tax Gets Fresh Look

You folks who voted for this fucker didn't think YOU were one of "the rich", did you!

What I'm trying to say here is that if this shit passes, everything you buy will now have a federal sales tax tacked on to it along with any state sales tax you may or may not already pay.
So everybody is going to be paying more taxes. Not just those who make $________.00 or more per year. Every-fucking-body.

The Fucknut Speaks

No shit:

[...]
"OBAMA: Well, we are out of money now. We are operating in deep deficits, not caused by any decisions we've made on health care so far."
[...]
"So we have a short-term problem and we also have a long-term problem. The short-term problem is dwarfed by the long-term problem."
[...]

So we're out of money, but the idiot isn't done spending money yet. We still have his free er, socialized um, standardized healthcare 'plan' to look forward to.

Itty Bitty Car Committee

By KEN THOMAS and PHILIP ELLIOTT, Associated Press Writers Ken Thomas And Philip Elliott, Associated Press Writers – 40 mins ago

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama's new fuel and emission standards for cars and trucks will save billions of barrels of oil but are expected to cost consumers an extra $1,300 per vehicle by the time the plan is complete in 2016. Obama on Tuesday planned to announce the first-ever national emissions limits for vehicles, as well as require an overall or industry average fuel efficiency standard at 35.5 miles per gallon.

The article does not explain specifically why the car would cost an additional $1300. I can only speculate that there will be more gizmos under the hood.

What's important about that last sentence is the term average. If your car company produces an SUV that people actually want to buy, even though it gets shitty mileage, you will need to build a small death trap that no one wants to get to an average 35.5 MPG. Not really rocket science to work around these new standards is it? Build one all-electric car for every eight new SUV models and you're good to go (that's bad math but I'm making a point here).

Fucking Hypocrite

First there's this:

"You can't get corporate jets, you can't go take a trip to Las Vegas or go down to the Super Bowl on the taxpayer's dime."
- Obama

Damn straight! Don't be wasting the taxpayer's money!

Unless of course the corporate jet is Air Force One, and you're trying to get more of the taxpayer's money for one of your cronies:

Obama plans Las Vegas getaway to help Harry Reid get big money

That fucking idiot in the White House has cost our city millions of dollars because of his little remark and now he's coming out here to raise money for the lying, cheating, conniving dumbfuck who is the house majority leader?

What a two-faced bastard.

Why Not

[Pelosi character from nymag.com]

Awakening?

I'm flipping between Fox, CNN, and MSNBC and let me tell you there has been an awakening. Even the liberal bastion that is MSNBC is ripping both Obama and Pelosi.

They're ripping Obama for the wrong reason though. Not releasing photos of detainees is the correct decision. Yes, it's a flip-flop but with the best interest of the country in mind. Thank you Mr. President.

Pelosi's a lost cause at this point. She did it to herself.

Quote of the Day

From Wikipedia:

The path we have chosen for the present is full of hazards, as all paths are; but it is one of the most consistent with our character and our courage as a nation and our commitments around the world. The cost of freedom is always high — but Americans have always paid it. And one path we shall never choose, and this is the path of surrender or submission.
- John Fitzgerald Kennedy

Odd statement that. Since this is what democrats would have The People do.

[Obama blog version]

So Now What?

Obviously, I don't like the nutsucker we have in office. But he's not all bad, right? I mean, he has accomplished something good while he's been in there. Right?

If you don't know the answer, then you're not a very good citizen now are you. You should keep up with current events.
I know it's hard to do that what with our busy schedules nowdays; job hunting, standing in welfare lines, consulting with bankruptcy lawyers and avoiding constables trying to evict us from our foreclosed homes.

Well, lucky you! I've compiled a list of the last ten items implemented by 'The One' that have had a positive influence in our lives:

1. 
   
2. 
   
3. 
   
4. 
   
5. 
   
6. 
   
7. 
   
8. 
   
9. 
   
10. 
    

You're welcome.
