VP Biden: We must spend more money to keep from going bankrupt
Vice President Joe Biden is now an economist. He is a man who thinks and talks like no other. As far as I know, he is the only man who thinks this way. This is the way to operate.
Party on, dude! Just because you may be going bankrupt, go on an expensive vacation anyway. Good plan! Everybody try it!

Obama to Congress: Don't spend what you don't have, but it's OK to borrow to pay for health care
Yesterday, President Barack Obama said the U.S. Congress should operate on a "pay-as-you-go" budget, but as always things aren't always as they seem in the world of Obama.
He said we shouldn't spend money that we do not have. The U.S. Treasury is practically broke. Yet, it had the "money" for the stimulus and Omnibus bills. Albeit it was the future money of America.
Obama says this excessive spending must end. Then he said Congress could borrow money to pay for socialized health care. Is Obama a little hypocritical?
In other news, the stimulus package is not working. Obama and Biden say that the bill has created or saved thousands of jobs.
Where is the proof? Obama and Biden can say anything. Where are the numbers? The last thing I heard is that millions are losing their jobs every month and the unemployment rate is approaching ten percent. But, Obama says he is creating or saving jobs. That is funny.

Government Efficiency? Dead people get stimulus checks
How's this for government efficiency, stimulus checks for dead people. And these dead people didn't just die, some died 30 to 40 years ago. The Obama administration wanted these checks out as soon as possible and apparently the Treasury didn't check the death certificates. The Fox affiliate in New York ran a story on this and said that as many as 10,000 dead people may have received checks. It's a wonder if the people who received them will tell the truth and return the money to the efficient government.
This is what the government does with our money. They waste it. This is nothing new.

Obama wants to halve budget deficit
President Barack Obama said today in his weekly radio address that he wants to halve the federal budget deficit. His goal is to halve the $1.3 trillion deficit to $533 billion by 2013. But how? What would a blazing liberal socialist do? Well, what else? Tax, tax and tax some more. Tax the wealthy until they aren't wealthy anymore. We all must be equal.
Obama also said that he is going to scale back troops in Iraq and withdraw most combat troops within 16 months of taking office. And, get rid of the Bush tax cuts. You know, why give money back to tax payers? Why not just tax them.
How else are we going to get free healthcare? Tax, tax and tax some more.
The sad thing is that the deficit that Obama is talking about does not include the $787 stimulus package.
And, don't forget about Obama's plan to end America's reliance on foreign oil. We must get green technology. You know, "green" technology is not cheap. We are in a recession, so how can "green" technology be paid for? Tax, tax and tax. And, what company makes this "green" technology? General Electric. We already know about General Electric and its ties to Obama and television.
Obama, you talk about fiscal discipline. You say we must to this and that. Look who's talking?! Do as I say and not as I do. What a hypocrite increasing the temperature in the White House to feel like Hawai'i.

Gibbs attacks Santelli
White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs loves socialism and kisses President Obama's shoes every night. He says that CNBC's Rick Santelli has no idea what he's talking about.
Gibbs makes fun of this man. What happened to the FIRST AMENDMENT?!!?!? Obama is going to take away our Bill of Rights! He's going to shred the Constitution!
Santelli is going to get his life ruined by the Obama administration. It's a matter of time. Big Brother is watching and Big Brother is the Obama administration.

My opinion on events
I am not happy seeing the direction the United States is heading. Day by day, we are reminded at how the Dow Jones Industrial Average has dropped. It seems like Wall Street continues to fall and there is no end in sight. Then we have this so called stimulus package which won't do anything to stimulate the American economy.
Each day seems to be dimmer and dimmer. We are reminded of crisis after crisis. If Obama says the word "crisis" one more time I am going to explode. We have NBC News which leads off every newscast with a new crisis. We have the Weather Channel with the trumped up "climate crisis." It's weather, Weather Channel, get over it! It is cold in the winter and warm in the summer. This is weather. Just because it snows in winter, it's not because of global warming. Have you guys learned anything in your meteorology classes, or are you taking the General Electric company line so you can sell your "green" products?
Then we have Washington. These guys are idiots. We have Barney Frank, we have Chris Dodd, we have Robert Byrd, we have Ted Kennedy and we can't forget about Joe Biden. You know what, back in 1977, not during the last eight years as Obama always says, a little known act was passed, it was the Community Reinvestment Act. This act created sub-prime loans. The Democrats said that everyone deserves a house, even if they don't have enough money to pay for their mortgage. Great idea, it is the American dream after all. Jimmy Carter signed the bill and Robert Byrd, Ted Kennedy and Joe Biden were there to vote for it. This bill forced banks to give people loans that they could not afford. Yes, it was the government that did this. It is not the banks' fault.
Yes, Carter signed it, then it went on year by year. The housing market stayed steady until Bill Clinton became president. Then the Democrats said lets look back into the Community Reinvestment Act and make it even easier to get a house, because we all need a house. In 1992, this began the downfall of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. These two institutions, owned by the government, were forced to lend people money for affordable housing.
And we all know what happened with these mortgages. The bubble burst in 2003. People were getting foreclosure notices and nice neighborhoods seemed to become vacant lots.
Then we hear about General Motors, Chrysler LLC and Ford Motor Company. The "Big Three" began to bleed money. GM and Chrysler get "bridge loans" which is actually a bail out. GM and Chrysler are back again asking for more money. GM and Chrysler are failing. Meanwhile Ford asked for no federal money, yet, they are in the same sinking boat.
People are not buying cars, these companies will continue to build more cars for who? Really, these cars will be just sitting on lots as these car companies continue to bleed. Chrysler wants another $4 billion and GM wants another $16 billion. Just think about it, GM will be back out with its hands asking for more money in August, then in December and who knows when. Same with Chrysler. And then there is Ford. What is Ford going to do? Just fail? Or, do they have a way out?
We have people in this country who seem to be entitled to their fine style of living and they can't pay for it. We have Obama now saying that if you can't pay your mortgage that he'll find a way to lower the rates so everyone can stay in their homes. This is for, of course, the people who are living in homes that they cannot afford. For the people who are just barely paying their mortgage, nothing is done. Obama says "Heck with you."
What happened to the America that wanted to be cutting edge? Where did that go? What happened to the American ingenuity? You know, the 1940s through the late 1960s. This was a time of American progress. Now it's all gone. America has become lazy and no other country is willing to take the torch.
America is entitled to be the world leader even if it doesn't deserve it.
At this rate of progress, with the stimulus bill and bailing out people who can't pay for their homes and giving money to GM and Chrysler and we have the government practically owning the banks, we'll have a hyperinflation soon. We will be in a depression by January. All Obama and Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Chris Dodd and Barney Frank do is make it worse. Yet, I believe that the Democrats will gain seats in the House and Senate in two years because they'll just blame this all on George W. Bush.
This is what could happen: either automakers fail or the government fails. If the automakers fail, there will be a deep depression and most likely a revolution. If the government fails, there will be a revolution. Either way, there is not enough money to keep the government and all these companies afloat. The US dollar will soon be completely worthless.
Where is the investigation into the House and Senate? And specifically, the banking committees and all other committees that deal with the economy.
Soon, at this rate, we will be a part of the "collective." Everyone will be equal, no rich, no middle class; all will be poor.
We'll have no GM, no Chrysler, no Ford. And this is just the United States. Look at Canada. Europe is in just as bad of shape.
I really hope we get socialized healthcare to make this depression come just a bit quicker than without free healthcare. High taxes, hyper inflation, depression, revolution. This is the future of America.
Might as well just throw away that old crusty paper that the Democrats have interpreted out of existance. This is, or was, the Constitution. It's done. Bye bye America. Hello new Russia!
Oh, I almost forgot, Obama has never said a good thing about the United States. How can an American president love China and dislike America? This is the "change we can believe in."
The United States is regressing. What's new? Nothing. Where's our version of Edison, Ford, Hershey, Franklin? Please step up.

New York Post protested for monkey cartoon
Al Sharpton and others came to protest outside the New York Post this morning for both of their first amendment rights. Except, Sharpton and the others outside the New York Post were a little confused about a cartoon they were chanting about. The cartoon featured a monkey, like the one that was shot yesterday. This cartoon dealt with the "Stimulus," so they assumed it was about Obama, but it wasn't Obama who wrote this bill. The answer below. Well, it was her idea, there is no way she could write the entire thing on such short of time.

Is this racist? Didn't Nancy Pelosi write this bill? All Obama did was sign it. So what is with the outrage?
And another New York Post cartoon. This says it all.

Our Mount Rushmore presidents seem a little unsure about what Pelosi, Reid and Obama have done. This is true, look at the Constitution.

House passes 'stimulus' bill 246-183
Seven Democrats voted "Nay" to the Stimulus package. They were Bright, Ala.; Griffith, Ala.; Peterson, Minn.; Defazio, Ore.; Minnick, Idaho; Shuler, NC; and Taylor, Miss. The bill had now Republican support. In the original bill in the House, 11 Democrats voted "nay."
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is ecstatic about passing the stimulus bill.

And, here is the House vote.

And again, what did they vote on? They don't even know. The bill is here. The bill is also available on a prior blog posting.

Stimulus Package is online just in time for vote
President Barack Obama promised that each bill would be posted online so the American public could see what is inside the bill for five days prior to its signing. This promise has been broken twice so far, and is about to be broken for it's third time. this makes Obama 0-3 on this promise.
Obama promised transparency and I can see right through this. I don't even know how the word "transparency" can be a good thing. By definition, the word means "fine or sheer enough to be seen through." Down the list of the possible meanings of the word from Merriam-Webster is what Obama defines as transparency: "free from pretense or deceit, easily detected or seen through, readily understood, characterized by visibility or accessibility of information especially concerning business practices."
Obama said five days. This bill was posted online this morning. It will be voted on tonight because House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has to be in Rome tomorrow for some reason, maybe a well-deserved vacation.

Obama: Lincoln was a bipartisan
History is being re-written everyday. Abraham Lincoln was a bipartisan. That's what President Barack Obama things. He also believes that if Lincoln was alive today, he would be in favor of his stimulus package.
Now, let's look at the facts about our 16th president, Abraham Lincoln. He was not bipartisan. If he was a bipartisan, the Confederate States of America would still be in existence. There would have been no American Civil War. Lincoln would have not suspended habeas corpus, where people were arrested for no real reason and could be held for no other reason than this person did not side with the Union and was a traitor. Around 18,000 Confederate sympathizers were held without trial.
Remember what the Democrats said about President George W. Bush having terrorists jailed at Gitmo? Bush actually is allowing a trial.
Would Lincoln have approved of the stimulus package? Most likely not. Why, you may ask? Lincoln was a Constitutionalist. He would most likely want the government to stay out of the private sector.
Look at the Founding Fathers of our nation. Ben Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, John Adams and the others did not even want the government of the United States to even build roads. The Founding Fathers wanted the people of the country to work together to build projects. Franklin, himself, did not take any government money when he built the nation's first hospital, first library and college. He took donations from people who wanted these projects built. Just look at how far we have come! The government now builds everything. How would our Founding Fathers, not to mention Lincoln, think of the America of today?
By the way, today is Abraham Lincoln's 200th birthday. Happy Birthday President Lincoln!!
Obama wishes his best to Lincoln too during today's birthday celebration:
Obama says that Lincoln is his inspiration. Maybe Obama should look more into that. He should has himself, what would Lincoln do in this situation?
