Seeing Red…

Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009

Ok, so I apologize for not writing much over the past few days. I’ve been burnt out for awhile and just haven’t felt like writing my thoughts out on the blog.

In order to get myself back into the swing of things, here’s the Rant of the Day…

Yep. I’m angry again. I’m livid. I’m seeing red… literally.

I cannot believe my very own eyes. I cannot believe what I am seeing. I cannot… oh who am I kidding? I CAN believe it… even if I really hate admitting it.

So, China (communist/socialist/pseudo-capitalist China) is celebrating its 60th anniversary on October 1st.  Sixty years of dictatorship within the confines of the Chinese borders. Sixty years of oppression of dissenting opinions, torture of dissidents, work camps, government forced starvation, mandated killing of children to control population, etc… great strides in the area of  ‘social engineering’ wouldn’t you say?

On that bright and cheery note, it appears that someone, somewhere, buried deep within in some little known (or well known) US government bureaucracy had at some point given the approval to assist in helping the Red Chinese government and people to celebrate this “momentous” occasion over this past weekend. Not just in helping to organize it, or just by giving them a place somewhere in the US to celebrate it, but to provide that place… in Washington, DC.

Oh… it gets better.

That place within the confines of Washington, DC, is located just outside the Whitehouse complex, near the back lawn of the complex, within eyeshot of it. As in, you can see the Whitehouse from the park where this celebration took place.

I’m not done here… there’s more. It gets even better… Are you sitting down? Do you have a piece of leather laying around you can bite down on so you don’t bite or swallow your tongue? Because this will probably send you into a seizure… it’ll, at the least, give you a migraine…

So, are you curious as to what they did at this park? They raised the communist Red Chinese flag alongside (and to the same height as) Old Glory… right there within view of the back of the Whitehouse. Oops… I think I vomited a little in the back of my mouth. Sorry.

OW! My head… it hurts! …and so does my heart when I think about all the sacrifices that so many brave US marines, sailors and soldiers have made throughout the decades in order to protect us from the tyranny and oppression of communism/socialism. All those men and women died to keep us free from that oppression and tyranny, and here is the US government nodding at the communist Chinese flag being raised within yards of the Whitehouse. This is their families’ payment… a mockery… a sham… a thumb in the nose… like this? Thanks for giving up your family members… now, shove it!

Unreal…

Here’s a link to a story about it…

EXCLUSIVE: UnitedHealth Lobbyist Announces Pelosi Fundraiser As She Begins Backing Off Pub Option

by: David Sirota

~~~~~

Dear Nancy Pelosi,

Let’s take a stroll down memory lane… do you recall how just a few weeks ago you called all those big nasty meanies at the health insurance companies “evil” and “immoral” and Lord-only-knows-what-else? Do you remember the disdain you had for them in your heart of hearts? Do you recall how angry and belligerent you felt as you uttered those words of disgust from your lips? I know you do. You are such a great crusader against corruption! How diligent you are in your efforts to root out evil wherever it tries to hide! You are a saint, my dear! We thank you for your concern and your service!

Oh, my dearest Nancy, let’s not forget just how adamant you were about the need for the so-called “public-option” on the President’s (ha!) “health-insurance reform” bill.  You loved this option so, didn’t you? Yes, you did because you lovingly care for all the less fortunate people out there who can’t afford health insurance, and you want to give them an inferior, cheap, government-funded, private competition killing anlternative to those ugly mean brutes at the insurance companies. I know your heart, Nancy-pants, and I admire your concern for those huddled masses. You truly rival Mother Theresa and the Statue of Liberty in compassion and selflessness.We are blessed to have you as our Speaker of the House… such a wonderful shining example of what it is to be a government official, and what a role model we have to look up to and aspire to be!

Now I hear that you are changing your mind on what is best for all of us sheep in Amerika. I have heard through the grapevine that your stance on the glorious leader’s public option idea may be waning. Well, you know best, Sweet Nancy. We trust you with our lives and our livelihood!Can we contribute more money to help you jet-set across the Country to lecture us on what’s best for us? Do you need more money for your fancy suits and expensive shoes? Please, just let us know and we’ll sell some more blood to pay your bills! We have plenty!

I also see that you are now attending a fundraiser in your own honor… a fundraiser that is sponsored by a lobbyist (*GASP!*) for one of those giant evil ogres of the so-called “health insurance industry”, United Health. While I know this looks extremely nefarious and self-serving, I have faith in you, Our Loving Nancy, that the announcement of this fundraiser being so close to your waning of the public-option is only coincidental. I’m also sure that you are only allowing these people to raise money for you because you want to win them over with your superior values and intellect to do what it right for the people of this Country, and to give them a chance at redeeming themselves and earning a place for themselves at your right hand in heaven.

We are so grateful to you for all that you do,

Your adoring public

Only the Shadow Knows… sorry, couldn't resist…

Tuesday, September 15th, 2009

The Shadow Party

  • Nationwide network of non-profit activist groups, whose agendas are ideologically to the left, which are engaged in campaigning for the Democrats
  • Consists of more than five-dozen unions, activist groups, and think tanks
  • Activities include fundraising, get-out-the-vote drives, political advertising, and covert operations
  • Conceived and organized principally by George Soros, Hillary Clinton and Harold McEwan Ickes

~~~

This here, my friends, is a very revealing article (complete with links to other enlightening articles chocked full of information about this organization, its structure, its purpose and its aims) regarding George Soros’ Shadow Party. It details the history of Soros’ activity to create shadow governments and bring about instability and political coups within other countries. It also describes, in detail, how Soros and his cronies have purchased their support base within Washington and the mainstream media itself.

I’m not a subscriber to conspiracy theories, because they all seem to fall flat on their faces at some point or they dance out on the edge of ridiculousness, but this here looks like there is some good information behind it.

Read it and decide for yourselves…

A quote…

Thursday, September 10th, 2009

A relevant one for the times we’re in right now.

“The problem isn’t that Johnny can’t read. The problem isn’t even that Johnny can’t think. The problem is that Johnny doesn’t know what thinking is; he confuses it with feeling.” ~ Thomas Sowell

The “health care reform” – “health insurance reform” – “stealth care” (that’s mine, buddy!) or whatever you call it, is stirring up emotions on all sides. Lots of strong emotions. The problem is when emotions run high, it’s not good to make decisions that impact so much and so many for so long… these are life and death decisions… and I’m afraid those who are so vehement about their ‘compassion’ for others are confusing their strong emotions and extreme desire to ‘help others’ with actually thinking about the impact of what they’re doing.

We need to slow down and have REAL discussion about the needs and the ways to resolve the issues we’re seeing in our day… instead of ramming something through that’s half-baked and say “we’ll figure it out on the back end”… NO! Figure it out NOW and see if we can actually do it… instead of throwing something against the wall and seeing what sticks.

Hope and Change I can believe in…

And not the kind Obama sold to millions of disgruntled Americans looking for ANYTHING different than the Bush legacy…

I’m talking about one of my journalistic heroes of all time, John Stossel, FINALLY leaving ABC for Fox News/Business.

John was too good for the lackeys at the Associated Broadcasters of Communism, and I figured it was just a matter of time before he moved on to Fox. He’s a better fit there due to his libertarian leanings (not that Fox is all things wonderful, they have their own issues and line up a little too tightly with the republican party line for my taste sometimes).

When I watch John’s segments (pretty much the only segments from ABC news I watch), I find myself nodding my head and agreeing with him way too often… and sometimes, I yell “amen” at the screen – I do, ask my fiance’, seriously. I’m glad to see him finding a comfortable home to share his pieces, and hopefully Fox will give John a whole lot more freedom to give real information than ABC gave him.

Here’s the article…

Cash by idiots, not cash for clunkers…

Thursday, September 10th, 2009

{Rant}

I guess I’m behind the curve because today is the first time I’ve seen this (I’ll get to it in a minute), and of course being the obsessed, angry person that I am, I’m absolutely indignantly inflamed by it.

The “CARS” (Car Allowance Rebate System) or “Cash for Clunkers” program was touted by the government as the green savior both for the auto related industry from a monetary perspective, and the “earth” from the environmental perspective. We were going to get all these clunkers and jalopies off the road that are spewing tons and tons of nasty, gene-mutating,  monster-creating pollution into the air. In addition, we were going to save Kajillions and Kajillions (not a real word, I made it up… in case you couldn’t tell) of gallons of gasoline by getting shiny, brand new, sparkly, angel-like, fuel efficient cars on the road. It’ll be harmony between man, nature, and machine, just like the touchy feely Prius commercial says… *gag*

The glorious leaders in Congress were going to graciously grant up to $4500 to each person who brought in a clunker to trade up to a vehicle that had 10 mpg over the mpg rating of the clunker brought in for trade. Pretty sweet gig if you can get it, right? Well… save your enthusiasm for a few minutes and keep reading…

No one expected it to be as ridiculously popular as it was. To hear its proponents talk after it started, it was the greatest thing since, or BEFORE sliced bread. It had a tremendous take rate and within a week, they had run out of funding and our infinitely wise and supreme, fiscally responsible overlords in Congress decided we needed to dump more piles of crisp, newly printed money (thanks, Ben Bernanke!) into the program. Within 29 days or so, we burned through the allotted amount and they shut down the ‘wildly successful’ program… and patted themselves on the back smugly, enjoying the elitist satisfaction of showing everyone how smart and wise they are for generating such a great, honorable, sound, green-ish program that actually ‘worked’. Yay them! Woohoo! … or not …

Problem is… it only LOOKS successful on the surface. The more you investigate and dig into it (something the illustrious Congress is not known for doing very well unless they’re looking to railroad someone), the more you see it was a trainwreck and a complete and total waste of money… we’re talking PORK here… big time. This was a secondary auto industry bailout… (for the Japanese and Koreans, but that’s a whole other article…)

First of all, before I get into the math of why this didn’t work, let me briefly (just briefly) talk about the fact that the rebates for these vehicles were to be handed out by the government as REIMBURSEMENTS to the dealers, who FRONTED customers the cash on the vehicles they purchased. Get that? It’s out of pocket from the dealers. You add that to incentives, etc., on each vehicle and you can see that this is a tremendous amount of cash they’re laying out. Cash they’re strapped for already. As you can imagine since this is the government we’re talking about, the rebate checks to the dealers do not happen instantaneously. They have to wait for them… and some of them are being denied due to failure to meet the CARS criteria (even though they actually MEET the criteria – typical government crap). Of the rebates that have been applied for, about 1/3 so far have actually gotten the rebates. The Transportation Secretary relays that they hope to have the rest processed and handed out by September 30th, but if I were a dealer, I would not be holding my breath in anticipation. How often has a government projected deadline come and gone with no action? Never, right? Yeah… thought so.

Now… to the numbers… this is what made blood shoot out of my eyeballs…

“A vehicle that gets 15 mpg and does 12,000 miles per year uses 800
gallons a year of gasoline. (They call this a Clunker…even though it runs perfectly)

A vehicle that gets 25 mpg and does 12,000 miles per year uses 480
gallons a year.  (A New Car)

So, the average clunker transaction will reduce US gasoline consumption
by 320 gallons per year.

They claim 700,000 vehicles were part of this program, so that’s 224
million gallons/year. (or 700,000 whole good cars lost)

That equates to a bit over 5 million barrels of oil.

5 million barrels of oil is about ¼ of one day’s US consumption.

And, 5 million barrels of oil costs about $350 million dollars at $75/bbl.

So, we all contributed, through our taxes, to spending over $3 billion to
save $350 million.”

 
Nice, right? Is that not your typical government operation? We saved less than 0.2 percent per year of our gasoline usage! Not 2%… ZERO POINT 2%… Two tenths of one percent…

{sarcasm} WOOHOO! Shout it from the friggin’ mountain tops and write songs about it and sing it to your kids as bedtime nursery rhymes, because that, my friends, is a friggin’ deal and a half! I can hardly contain myself! {/sarcasm}

If these idiots can’t get this minor program right, what the hell makes you think they’re going to get Insurance Reform (the progressive catch phrase it’s being called today…) right, much less a “public option”, when we’ve wasted so much on this and then “social security”, Medicaid, Medicare, Amtrak and even the friggin’ POST OFFICE are absolutely broke and bankrupt!?

 Oh… and don’t even get me started on the “green” side of this… there is none, but if I went into details about that here, my head might just spontaneously combust or something… so I’ll spare you that. You can look it up for yourself…

Wake up America! Fire ‘em all! Put ‘em all out of a job!

{/Rant} …for now…
