The picture above shows how crazy it has become in America and why so many Americans are mad about the government not enforcing the immigration laws! For one thing what other country in the world allows illegals to come into their country and protest against that country's immigration laws? None! Most would probably throw them into jail right away for being there illegally in the first place! If you think American people and their laws are so bad, why did you leave your own country and come here in the first place? But then again what other government would sue its own people over trying to keep out the illegals?

Clinton Appointee Judge Susan Bolton

PHOENIX – A federal judge stepped into the fight over Arizona's immigration law at the last minute Wednesday, blocking the heart of the measure and defusing a confrontation between police and thousands of activists that had been building for months.
Coming just hours before the law was to take effect, the ruling isn't the end.
It sets up a lengthy legal battle that could end up before the Supreme Court — ensuring that a law that reignited the immigration debate, inspired similar measures nationwide, created fodder for political campaigns and raised tensions with Mexico will stay in the spotlight.
Protesters who gathered at the state Capitol and outside the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City cheered when they heard the news. The governor, the law's authors and anti-illegal immigration groups vowed to fight on. "I knew the judge would say that part of the law was just not right," said Gisela Diaz, 50, from Mexico City, who came to Arizona on a since-expired tourist visa in 1989 and who waited with her family early Wednesday at the Mexican Consulate to get advice about the law.
"It's the part we were worried about. This is a big relief for us," she said. About 100 protesters in Mexico City who had gathered in front of the U.S. Embassy broke into cheers when they learned of Bolton's ruling. They had been monitoring the news on a laptop computer.
"Migrants, hang on, the people are rising up!" they chanted.
Mexico's Foreign Secretary Patricia Espinoza called the ruling "a first step in the right direction" and said staff at the five Mexican consulates in Arizona will work extra hours in coming weeks to educate migrants about the law. Unsurprisingly the U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton is a Clinton appointee. Does federal law trump state law, when the Federal government will not enforce the law? Judge Bolton’s decision is an important victory for the Obama administration in the face of a rising tide of concern among several states that the federal government is not effectively enforcing immigration law or effectively protecting US borders.

ZOMBIE SOCIAL SECURITY LIE: THE SYSTEM IS GOING “BANKRUPT”
Posted on July 25, 2010, 3:06 pm


Panic! Lose your minds! And above all …. Privatize! Privatize! Privatize! Because the entire Social Security system is about to crash and go belly up!

Except that it’s not.

Here’s our expert, Nancy Altman, in her sensational debunking book from 2005, The Battle for Social Security: From FDR’s Vision To Bush’s Gamble, discussing the 1980 panic over the future of the program and the use of the “bankruptcy” scare, the same zombie scare that’s rearing its head again today:

Bankruptcy is a meaningless concept when applied to the federal government as a whole or any of its programs. As long as the federal government has, under the Constitution, “Power To Lay and collect Taxes” and the authority to issue and sell Treasury bonds, it and its programs will not go bankrupt. It is instructive to note that the reference to potential bankruptcy would be impossible to claim if Congress simply reinstated the authorization, present in the law from 1943 to 1950, to pay any shortfall in Social Security out of general revenue.

Out of all federal programs, Social Security was being singled out for alarmist claims about bankruptcy because it operated under the conservative principles of a balanced budget and long-range projections. No one ever pointed out that if deficit spending were the definition of bankruptcy in a federal program, then the entire federal government―other than Social Security―had been bankrupt for 20 years. During the prior two decades [to 1980], the government had run deficits every year with the exception of 1969.

Ask yourself this: Why this one program? Why, decade after decade, have conservatives fanned the flame of paranoia about this specific program when every other federal program, and the government itself, operates at a deficit? Why is the healthiest program on the privatization block? Who wins and who loses if wealth is transferred from this public insurance program into private hands?

It would be irresponsible not to speculate, wouldn’t it?

As you mull over that mutil-billion dollar question, just keep in mind the simple phrase: Social Security cannot go “bankrupt.”

This has been the third in a series of attempts to slay Zombie Social Security lies with the help of Altman’s book. Altman was Alan Greenspan’s assistant in 1983 when he chaired the panel on fine tuning the program, and her book has helped debunk two other zombie lies in the past couple of weeks: increased life span is dooming the program, and decreased worker-to-beneficiary ratio is killing the program.

Another great resource for any and all information about the health of Social Security can be found at Angry Bear, where Bruce Webb’s series has become a go-to resource on the attempts–and the zombie lies–to scare the bejesus out of Americans and get them to turn their wonderful safety net program over to private profiteers. (We’ve also been lucky enough to have Webb posting here and sharing his expertise.)

Dems, Repubs, all the same!

I must apologize as my Blog has been mostly one sided because I have heavily favored the Republicans over the Democrats in most of my postings! But I've tried to picked only the lessor of two evils because it seems to me that everyone we vote for does OK until they get to Washington. It's kind of like the old saying "when in Rome do as the Romans do" and that seems to be the case with all these politicians. I guess when they start running around with a bunch of thieving, selfish idiots, they soon end up thinking of nothing else but their own financial gain & how best to screw the voter. Another old saying is if you lie with the dogs, you end up with the fleas.

Don't Matter!

Don't matter if you vote against it. Don't matter if you picket against it or write your Congressman, President, Mayor, School board, or County Commissioner etc. till your blue in the face. You get it whether you want it or not. Higher taxes, more bicycle lanes,toll roads you already paid for, schools built like palaces where half the kids don't pass, more trains that no one rides! It comes from the Federal, State, County, and city governments. The majority of us votes against this crap, but it still don't matter cause you get it anyway. They tell you to get out and vote, you can change it! Well most of us have tried that and it still don't matter cause sooner or later it all comes back to haunt you over and over again. It's like a run away car were you keep trying to slam on the brakes, only to discover there are no brakes.

Massachusetts legislature may pass a bill that throws its electoral college votes to the popular vote winner
Posted: 19 Jul 2010 08:48 PM PDT
The Massachusetts legislature is working on a bill that will alter how its electoral votes are cast in presidential elections. This bill says Massachusetts electoral votes will go to the candidate who wins the popular vote. So what happens if in 2012 the popular vote winner is a Republican and the vast majority of Massachusetts voters voted for Obama?

I can’t imagine that majority of Massachusetts voters would be very happy.

While not perfect, the electoral college is the most effective way to make sure the majority of the American people who live in densely populated cities and states don’t run roughshod over the interests of those who live in sparsely populated rural areas, which is what would certainly happen in a straight popular vote.

There’s a reason why we are a Representative Republic and not a direct democracy. Marvin Simkin from San Diego was absolutely right when he wrote this in the LA Times back in January, 1992:

Democracy is not freedom. Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to eat for lunch. Freedom comes from the recognition of certain rights which may not be taken, not even by a 99% vote. Those rights are spelled out in the Bill of Rights and in our California Constitution. Voters and politicians alike would do well to take a look at the rights we each hold, which must never be chipped away by the whim of the majority.

Conspiracy Theorist

I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but I am smart enough to know that two plus two equals four. What I'm getting at is I find it kind of strange about the oil leak happening in the gulf at the same time Obama was pushing his green energy bill. A lot of weird things have been going on since that man was elected to office. Take for instance the fact that very few news stations reported the case against the black panthers on voter intimidation charges(that was won already) being dismissed by the attorney general of the united states on orders from his boss! Why would he do that? Going to a church for twenty years that was ran by a racist preacher and always missing out on the sermons about how bad the whites are. Sit down and think to yourself what's wrong with this picture!

FairTax Bill

Our tax system even gives foreign producers a price advantage when they sell their products here. We're killing off the "Made in America" label through our self defeating tax system, and this must change.

And that's why Nobel Prize winning economist Dr. Vernon L. Smith and more than 80 other leading economists say we should enact the FairTax Now!

The FairTax Bill H. R. 25 eliminates all personal income taxes, the marriage penalty, payroll taxes, capital gains taxes, death taxes, the Alternative Minimum Tax, corporate taxes, and Social Security taxes. It's a retail sales tax collected only on new items which expands the American tax base to bring in illegal immigrants and trillions of dollars now in the underground economy or hidden offshore. It makes the true taxpayer cost of the federal government highly visible; it's simple and fair and allows every honest American to take home far larger paychecks free of federal withholding. It unleashes our economy to grow - and best, already has 66 Senators and Congressional co-sponsors.

But we need your support to pass the FairTax Bill. I know it's a lot to ask you to invest $50 or $100. I have personally invested $200 in this FairTax National Victory Campaign. By investing $200, I have given at least twice what I am asking you to invest today. But this is the big one. If we get started big, we get started right, and we can do it!

Will you follow this link and help enact the FairTax today?http://www.fairtax.org

Waiting for the main stream media!

I'm still waiting for the main stream media to catch up with Fox News on the story about the new black panther party (8 members) and their racial slurs about whites. Are abc, nbc, cnn, so politically correct in their way of thinking that the sword cuts only on one side for them? In America there should be no Race given special rights & put above another Race because of color! If it had been the other way around would the main stream news have reported it already? Yes they would have!

Car Wreak

White House issues second offshore drilling moratorium

Posted: 12 Jul 2010 07:47 PM PDT

Undeterred from their effort to ban all off shore drilling, Interior Secretary Ken Salazar and the White House issued a second moratorium on deep water offshore drilling, after the federal court shot down the first one. This time, however, the new moratorium bans all offshore deep water drilling

The Obama administration’s new moratorium on deep-water offshore drilling will no longer be based on water depth.

Instead, the moratorium will apply to any deep-water floating facility with drilling activities. The original moratorium applied to those in waters of more than 500 feet.

Anyone with even a little common sense can see that all Obama is trying to do is push his green energy crap on us.

How stupid is this? Lets pretend there has been one car wreak on the road so I'm going to put a moratorium on all traffic! Please Lord hurry up the November Elections!

No Speed Limits

Today I was beating myself up over why very few people seem to care or even notice the fact that we're letting this great nation of ours go downhill. The politicians in our government seem to be able to get away with things that you and I would instantly be lock up in prison for. The most amazing thing about it all is they are doing it out in the open. Most of the TV news stations that we have put our trust and respect in to report the news honestly have chosen to ether twist the truth or not even bother reporting it at all, especially when it comes to the Obama Government.

Why did the Attorney General drop the case of the two Black Panther thugs that were trying to intimidate voters during the presidential elections? The video and evidence was plenty enough to put both men in jail over it! Did the news stations such as ABC, CBS, NBC, and the others even report this, I didn't hear them reporting it. It seems that the only ones that we can trust to report the news as it really is is FOX NEWS. That was the only news station that I saw a video with one of the same black panthers saying he hated white people and that the blacks could never be free until they killed all the whites and their babies too. Did any other stations except Fox reported this? And yet after all of this the president of the united states told his attorney general to drop the case against them!

As I was driving to work this morning the answer to the question of why very few people seem to care or even notice became clear in my mind as I watched the majority of drivers going over the speed limit. The ones that choose to obey the law usually had someone very dangerously on their rear bumper almost trying to shove them into going even faster. Other people without regards to anyone else but themselves were rudely cutting in front of the drivers trying to do the speed limit. The thought came to me as I watched all of the unkind, uncaring, rude, selfish people was," Birds of a feather, flock together".

Google Email Alert Social Security running out of money

I put into my google email alert the sentence "why is Social Security running out of money" and I could not believe all of the results I got back on that one sentence! But most of the stories about it seem to come to the same conclusion, money you pay into Social Security is being used for everything except for the reason it was created. So why don't the politicians stop talking about it going broke, by not stealing the money out of it for their own personal pork project spending.

Pelosi: Unemployment checks create jobs

Apparently 2 years of unemployment checks aren't good enough for Democrats, they'd like to keep people dependent on government forever as they are pushing a new bill to extend benefits. In desperation, Pelosi tried to plead her case on the extension and pathetically argued that unemployment checks are the fastest way to create jobs. Perhaps dementia is settling in, or perhaps she's just too brilliant for us mere mortals to understand her logic. But even more disturbing is the Republican quoted in the article, who bashes Pelosi while at the same time saying the GOP is for 'extending unemployment benefits' - a bizarre position for a conservative that can only be explained by The Overton Window theory. (Taken from Glenn Beck website)

Double Dip

The saying double dip is usually associated with asking for two scoops of ice cream, instead of just one. The news is that we may be in for a double dip recession. Well what can you expect when the top Dem leaders of this country's only answer to our economic problems is spend, spend, spend, tax, tax, tax! Why are businesses not hiring?? Because they haven't a clue on when the Dems are going to tax them out of business or out of the country. That's another reason we're losing jobs to so call out sourcing, because other people in the world don't have to play by all of the stupid rules and regulations that our government shoves down our throats!
