Good site - About BHO voters...

http://www.howobamagotelected.com/

This site has a video of interviews with people who voted for BHO. They are obviously victims of the liberal media's campaign for BHO. The video shows how dumb some of them are - and it's backed up with the results of a Zogby poll with the same questions.

It's amazing to me how many people care so little about this country that they don't get informed and find out the facts for themselves, they swallowed the whole biased media bullsh*t show.

Don't get the wrong idea, I support the President. I don't want him to fail because if he does, the country fails. But, I am convinced that there was massive fraud in this campaign (>$650 million raised by BHO; ACORN 'voter' registrations, etc.). I am worried about what the liberals in the Congress will do with a liberal in the White House; I don't want BHO to fail, but I have very little confidence that won't. If he fails, I'll print T-shirts:

"If you voted for the demoncrats, it's YOUR fault!"

Demoncrat promise - BHO BS!

"2.5 million new jobs by 2011" said BHO. An aide said new or saved jobs... What a line of bullsh*t! They can't even say the same things... BHO says something and another demoncrat has to 'explain' it... "What he meant to say was..."

"Saved jobs"??? What do you mean - you're successful if more than 2.5 million people are working in 2011? Excuse me - just how stupid do you demoncrats think people are???

Demoncrat economic stimulus is the news this weekend... BHO talked about $175B during the campaign, now they are estimating $300B to $700B to get the economy going again. That may be what it takes to fix the economy, but how are we going to pay for it? Holy crap, that's a lot of money!

We have to watch these people - they are on a dangerous path. We need to remember what they say, and hold it against them in 2010 and 2012.

Automakers looking for demoncrat bailout...

The problem I have is that the automakers are inefficient, bloated, bureaucratic corporations. In spite of that, it would certainly be bad for them to go out of business. I'm in favor of them getting help, but the companies and the unions need to give a little as well.

The unions have coerced the companies into wages and benefits that are unreasonable - they need to give a little of that excess back, they need to do their part. $2500+ of the price of each car they make is due to union benefits. No wonder the Big Three can't compete with imports!There is no justification for paying a forklift driver over $30/hour... I would suggest a 20% reduction in pay and benefits for every employee as part of any bailout plan. That would just be fair.

Michigan and other states that have auto plants can give a little, too, like a 20% reduction in property and business taxes.

The companies need to cut the fat and refocus their efforts toward making cars that are competitive with imports in design and economy. They should also be making cars with fuel options to include gasoline, ethanol, E85 and natural gas. With existing technology it can be done and switching can be automatic. Imagine a car with a 20 gallon fuel tank and natural gas system - how about a 800 -1000 range between fill-ups!

The rest of the country can help. As I said in my last post, we Americans should be buying American made cars. THAT would be patriotic - not paying higher taxes, as our demoncrat VP-elect suggested.

Here's another solution for the economy...

I'm in Florida. The economy is a wreck here, just like the rest of the country (thanks to the demoncrats). It's too late for a TVA-type project here, we're actually trying to restore the Everglades. So whatever will we do?

How about combining a TVA-type effort with a good idea from a great American, T. Boone Pickens? No, we don't have enough wind... and even though we're The Sunshine State, the cloud cover makes solar power inefficient...

But we do make a lot of trash with 17 million people... we have a large agriculture industry which generates waste... let's make electricity with it! We fill our landfills with trash - why not make electricity with it? We use coal, oil and natural gas to generate a lot of our power - let's replace some of that with some of the fuel we throw away every day.

Power bills would go down, trash collection fees would go down, power plant emissions would go down (yes, the technology exists to make Waste to Energy (WtE) plant emissions clean) and more people would be employed. It's so simple - why don't we do it?? Oh, yeah, it's the enviro- rrists and their bought-and-paid-for demoncrats...

Use the oil for gasoline, use the natural gas for cars, and use the coal to develop clean-coal technology. Oh - we'll have to expand the natural gas fueling stations in the state - 18 of them already existing aren't going to be enough... people can also put fueling stations in their garages, of course.

The jobs! Thousands of people building and operating power plants and transmission lines... building and running natural gas fueling stations... installing natural gas conversions in cars... improvements in agriculture...

Of course, with all those new jobs, the state will be collecting more revenues, so maybe our taxes would even go down (wishful thinking?)

11.12.08 Another day, stock market down again

Seems like the reality of a demoncrat president and majority in the congress has the markets worried...

Okay, my fellow Americans, it's time to take a little responsibility and take a little action to make things better: Buy American Made products!

Think about it - keep the money here, spend your money on things made here, so manufacturers and wholesalers and retailers will have to hire more people. There will be more people making a living and spending money. If they buy American, the cycle repeats.

Simple, isn't it? Buy American - do your part to fix this lousy, demoncrat-wrecked economy!

Still more on 11.05.08

I have been known to say, a time or two, "don't complain about a problem unless you can offer a solution".



So, before you completely wreck the economy, BHO, use this idea to create jobs: for every new job, rebate half of the income tax that new employee pays back to the hiring company. Simple, right? If a truck driver or assembly worker is hired and falls in the 20% tax bracket, rebate the company 10% of his wages. Good for the new employee, good for the company, good for the country.



Here's another idea, to help with your promise to "take a scalpel to the federal budget": stop payments for nothing, like paying farmers NOT to grow crops. How stupid is that? If the market can't support the crops, grow something else! Duh!

Okay, one more: stop the tax breaks for companies that operate overseas to avoid US taxes. 'Nuff said there.

Here's a thought on education: too much of the money spent on public education is spent on bureaucracy and administration. If we can cut back on the administration and shift the money to pay teachers and pay for supplies, education will improve. Also, since our students are lagging students in many other countries, add an hour of instruction to every school day. Five hours a week will allow time for a second language, physical education, geometry, etc. You just have to shut the unions up - better yet - get rid of them. It'll be better for all our kids!


Illegal immigrants... your own aunt is one and she's living in subsidized housing! She was told to leave four years ago by a judge, but she's still here. And she got subsidized housing - how in the world does that happen??? (The fact that she and you broke the law when she donated $260 to your campaign doesn't really matter in this rant.) The problem is that we don't enforce the law. The first thing we (the country) needs to do is to enforce the law because the illegals are making the economy worse. Then, revise the law to make it easier and take less time. But, make it a requirement that they learn the language! Make them legal, collect taxes and social security from them, so they are not such a burden on society.


I'll have more to say soon...

More on 11.05.08

The demoncrats gained seats in the house and senate - this blows me away - the demoncratic-controlled congress of 2006 - 2008 obtained the lowest approval rating in history: 9. Yes, single-digits, and way lower than President Bush's lowest approval rating.

What are people thinking??? Evidently, they are not.

Hey, what is this "civilian security force" that BHO is talking about? The last people that implemented that kind of program were... Hitler and Castro! WTF???

November 5 2008

Well, we're screwed. The demoncrats have won the white house and a large majority of the congress. We're going to watch them close, because of the threat they pose to our freedoms and the economy.

BHO promised no tax increase for 95% of Americans. I'm going to watch, and I invite you to watch, to see if he keeps that promise. If not, I'm going to make a lot of noise in four years.

I can't believe those idiots in Massachusettes re-elected Barney Frank! Isn't ANYONE up there paying attention??? And California - what's up with re-electing Pelosi??? That's at least as stupid as re-electing Frank! Dammit!

The demoncrats are a threat to our 401(k) plans. There is talk about taking away the tax deduction for contributors and employers. The plan is to replace it with a mandatory 5% pay reduction, controlled by the government, paying a measly 3% interest. The government is going to add a measly $600/year to this account. The net effect will be most retirees will not have enough money to live on, because there will be no real incentive to save. BOHICA

The demoncrats are a threat to free speech. They are talking about the so-called "fairness doctrine", which will require media to GIVE equal time to opposing views when broadcasted. The target is talk radio, which is mostly conservatives, because the liberals attempt at talk radio is a dismal failure. They can't earn it, so they want to force it. Broadcasters get paid for airtime - if they have to give half of it away, they won't make any money and go out of business. So much for improving the economy, tolerance and free speech. BOHICA

My biggest concern is what the demoncrat liberals are going to do with religious broadcasting. The constitution guarantees us freedom OF religion, not freedom FROM religion! They would shut down all religious broadcasting, tax churches, and basically try to turn the United States into an atheist state. That cannot happen! 55 of the 58 people who signed the Declaration of Independence were Christian. They didn't make this a Christian-only nation, they allowed for religious freedom. Why won't the demoncrats?

There are many more topics that I will cover, and I invite your comments.

God bless you, and God Bless America (even the demoncrats!)
