Thursday's Rumination. . .

Ok, so we're gonna spend all this money, right?

And the government is going to print more money, right?

And they will secure said dollars by selling more bonds, right?

And the Chinese and others, who hold trillions of dollars of our debt already will snap them up, right?

At what point does our dollar become weaker and potentially worthless by the aforementioned debt and unprecedented spending which will flood the market with fresh dollars?

And in the meantime, with all this new spending, Prez-dent Obama is going to cut the deficit in half by spending more than ever before and selling more debentures than ever before without cutting any governmental programs in the process?

How is all of the above possible? And frankly, why isn't Washington burning right now?

Just asking. Sometimes I ain't too smartz.

H/T: Gateway Pundit and Best Week Ever

Just Disgusting, , ,

More lies.

Democrats have done all they can to keep this stimulus highway robbery bill away from prying eyes.

Now, the bill is being rushed to the floor so certain DemocRATS , including super-genius Nancy Pelosi, can skirt away to Europe for 8 days to hide from the inevitable fallout of passing this behemoth of a "borrowing" bill.

Liars, cheats, scum. Thanks Congress, you're a real Brooklyn Charmer.

Dain Bramage. . .

Since I cannot find it within myself today to string several coherent words together about the STIMULUS highway robbery bill, I'll just layout a few links from the articles and postings from which I was going to blog about.

From Pundit and Pundette, excepts of an article outlining Obama's new Health Information Technology boondoggle.

From Ann Coulter via Human Events, is America really dead?

From the Heritage Foundation, America's new Frankenstein, welfare.

And let's not forget the greatest stimulator/job creator of all, the salt marsh harvest mouse.

Remember, there is no pork in this bill and we don't care about it anyway.

More Arrogance You Can Believe In. . .

Chuck Schumer, a piece of crap, lifetime, scumbag politicoDemocrat from New York, garnered 20 minutes of time on the Senate floor recently to remind us just exactly what hope and change feels and tastes like.

Using fear as a weapon, which during "eight years of mismanagement by the Bush administration" was a bad thing, is now the current modus operandi of the wacko, libtard left, because simply, it works. And of course, we are plainly stupid, we WANT this bill to pass. And by saying "you lost," is simply Schumer's succinct effort of thumbing his nose at the Republican right, but by virtue of that, also at the very least, 50 percent of our country.

These are the politics of hope, change and transparency.

Let's stay on message, tell the American people we don't give a damn what they think(it's only their money we're spending) and let's pass the largest stimulus(spending?) bill ever created without reading the fine print. No problem there right?

Well, let me be the only guy to stand up and question this "change."

I care about pork. I care about job creation. I care that this bill had no Republican input at the committee level and was pushed through the House and Senate so rapidly that it was nearly signed off on before anyone had a chance to turn past page two. These things matter to me.

And it matters to me even more that the people we have elected to represent US are solidly ignoring the pleas from the masses to stop this ignorant, fruitless and pork-laden bill.

I saw recently that as a form of public dissent, a blogger was going to stamp "tax cheat" on every dollar bill he saw with Timothy Geitherner's name on it. I fear this might not be enough. Pitchforks and burning clubs might be our only option to dislodge the insanity that is modern-day politics in Washington D.C.

Keeping With Today's Theme. . .

. . .that the pen is mightier than the sword, follow the link through this neat and thoughtful blog to a cutting opinion article by sharp-guy Mark Steyn on Obama's felonious highway robbery stimulus bill.

This is the kind of writing that makes me step back, point and say weakly, "yeah, what he said!"

Thicker Than Thieves. . .

More stimulus you can believe in.

I didn't realize the Bill of Rights protected "access to communication" too. Maybe I should brush up on the language of the document. I am constantly amazed at what qualifies as a right within the weak mind of liberal Democrats, but then again, I realize they are under the heavy influence of Hope and Change.

Here are a couple of highs and lows from the "hog fat jowl head cheese" bill:

$1,500,000 for helping hookers get off the streets and away from prostitution in Dayton, Ohio. Job creation? Zero. On the other hand, if there is one thing a hooker knows, it's stimulation.

And for our friends in Puerto Rico, $17,500,000,000 for "New Energy Efficient Industrial Zones." Am I the only one scratching my head and thinking this is exactly what the poor suffering, out-of-work Americans of Puerto Rico need? Oh wait, they're not quite Americans and are proudly Puerto Rican, but yet, pay some taxes, but not all taxes, although take advantage of the protections of our government and military, but also have their own democratically elected government? Well then WTF? Let's give them seventeen BILLION dollars.

Well, from all that pork fat, I think we need a special palette cleansing by Sheriff Buford T. Justice of Texas.

How To Spell Class. . .

O-B-A-M-A.

So, does this mean we can talk about Michelle Obama's rear-endus too?

And while the President glazes over his latent male instinctual desires for a big, blond, white woman, he is currently holding behind the scenes talks with two of America's arch foes, Iran and Syria. Pay attention people, this is the real world. Money, power and bombs. Forget all the red herrings and calculated interference concerning green projects, Democrat tax cover-ups and corporate pay and jets. Add to all of this our real problem of the fact that the most liberal senator IN THE HISTORY OF MANKIND currently wields the most powerful weapon on the planet. The pen.

The thing about government is, once you give it money to spend, it's hard to take that money away. Since when has our government ever downsized itself, with the exception of strategic cuts in military budgets by Democratic presidents?

Our highly touted economic salvation via the stimulus bill is nothing more than a thinly cloaked pork project fiesta of useless government waste at our expense. Thanks Democrats! Anyone who thinks this spending is going to impact the job market in the long term is seriously under the influence of media misdirection and Hopenchangeitis.

But I understand that there is no helping the sadly misinformed. No matter how bright the light of truth shines into the empty eyes of our precious sheeple aka "the overwhelming majority of voters". . .somewhere, someone, is thinking to themselves, "Hey, $99,600 for doorbells in Laurel, Mississippi is just what our economy needs!"

Boy, that's some ding-dongs you can believe in! Or some bark bark, if you're a dog.

Bill Clinton, Part Douche. . .

Worms. See the wiggle.

With King/God Barack Obama's "coronation" just around the corner, we had a nice breath of fresh air drawn in by virtue of a slight turning of the media and the Democrat party away from Obama and his indicated domestic policy initiatives.

Obama has demostrated that he is first, of all things, a lawyer and not to forget, a gloried community organzer. And secondly, he is not God, Baby Jesus nor an economist. He is also, of the least things he needs to be, like Bill Clinton, the vagina-enhanced-cigar smoking cad of years past. Clinton and his mafia in the White House couldn't wipe their own asses without running a poll first. And apparently, Obama will be no different.

Obama: I don't know what to do??

Axelrod: (dabbing Obama's sweaty brow with a tissue) Don't worry, your emminence, we'll run a poll, the American people understand complex economic theorems and they will supply us with the answer!

Obama: (relieved) Whew! That was a close one! Want a bite of my organic arugula salad?

It was about 53% of our brain damaged electorate that chose this do-do brain to begin with and now Obama and Axelrod are going to let them formulate complex economic policy? Freidman must be rolling over in his grave.

And today, Michelle Malkin has a great article about Obama's backtracking on his early campaign promise to his rabid devotees concerning the closing Guantanamo Bay within 100 days of taking office. Hmmm, guess the hard exlir of reality is finally beginning to set in with the all-seeing, all-knowing Obama and his robots.

Fickle? Or realizing that being president isn't as easy as agitating for change as a community organizer.

I guess this is some ChangePoll we can Believe in.
